I love chocholates very much, especially the dark ones. Hersheys, Cadburys and Nestle are my favourites. Just now I read in an article that chocholates are healthy and eating them has some good effects in the body. The article says that chocholates helps to lower the blood pressure and also fight against heart disease..Is it not a good news? I really could not believe this..wow..Are chocholates really healthy?

Yep! As long as we take it in moderation. AND dark chocolate really is more healthful that milk chocolate. I actually saw an article on this and decided to pass the message in my blog (Things We Love to Hate LOL it sounded like the best candidate for an entry then!).

I think it would only in moderation, unfortuanately I only like milk chocolate and i don't think that is as healthy, all I know is chocolate makes me feel good so thats good enough for me, although i do worry about it being fattening...

yes, you are right..Chocholates make us feel good. But I like dark chocholates more than the white chocholates..

Moderation, my dear. If you ate it all day long, the fats in it would not be so good for you, and the sugar is bad for your teeth. You won't really have a whole lot of benefits outweighing that. But eat it if you want, go ahead! Just, don't have too much.

You are right..Too much of anything is not good for health..Chocholates are also good if taken in moderation..

Yes chocolates are healthy but be sure not to eat much because everything that is too much is not good. Also have you heard the news about melamine containing milk from China I read that those are ingredients in making chocolates so be sure you are eating the safe ones.

Yes, everything is good till it is within the limits. Anything that goes beyond the limit is not good. And thanks for reminding me about the melamine..But are they added in chocholates..This is a new information for me..
