Notes
Chocolate is not inherently unhealthy, but balance is key to avoid adverse health outcomes from excess saturated fat.
Antioxidants in dark chocolate can lower blood pressure and reduce risks of stroke, coronary heart disease, and death from heart disease.
Chocolate provides psycho-social benefits and is high in magnesium, contributing to its calming effects.
