I have high blood pressure,arthritis,possibly fibromyalgia as well as some other medical issues.I have found through some research that eating dark chocolate is good for me.
However just eating plain dark chocolate get's boring to my taste buds sometimes and I was in the store looking for something that would be good for me health wise at the same time please my taste buds.
I found some dark chocolate made by Dove that also had sea salt and caramel in it.Now sea salt is low in sodium and the three taste combined is pleasing to my taste buds.But,wonder if it's any healthier that just plain dark chocolate?
Has any had or heard of this candy? Do you know if it is healthu for my medical issues?

I would suggest that you stick with dark chocolate that is 70 percent or above in chocolate and forget the kind that has sea salt and caramel. The latter is not as good and the caramel and salt would negate any benefits that the regular dark chocolate had.
So have that Dove candy once in a while like maybe one piece a week and eat the regular dark chocolate.

I understand that it is difficult to stay without eating what you like the most. But eating them once in while and in a controlled manner will just be fine. About your question whether they are good for you or not you better contact your doctor. He is the best person who can tell you what is good and bad for your health

Eating chocolate it's good for blood pressure, my doctor told me that because I have the opposite problem. So I don't know but I wouldn't recommend it .

I think that if you will eat it in moderation, then nothing bad will happen to you. I have not tasted it yet, but when I tried to search for it via the net and saw the reviews, it is really tempting and I hope that it is also available now here in your country.
You'd be fine eating them, but not too much.

I have not seen this chocolate but it sounds like it has more hurtful ingredients than regular dark chocolate. I am not a fan of chocolate in general and to be honest, I am bored of the dark chocolate taste as well! But if it has to do with health, you should ask your doctor or a specialist and if they recommend common dark chocolate without extra ingredients you should follow their advice! I am sure that with a single look in the ingredients they will be able to see it"
