In fact, dark chocolate has been reported to contain more flavonoids than otherantioxidant-rich foodstuffs, such as red wine.Flavonoids reportedly prevent cancers, protect blood vessels, promote cardiac health and counteract mild hypertension (high blood pressure). What do you think

Yes!! You are absolutely right. Chocolates are really good for our health,specially the dark chocolates.Chocolates are a good source of flavonoids..Other chocolates are also good but may leads to gain in weight as they are more sweeter.It reduces the risk of cancer and also lower the cholesterol level which reduces the risk of heart diseases too..
