There have been many studies that show that chocolate may be good for you. Some suggest that eating more chocolate is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease, others show that chocolate may even improve brain function by increasing blood flow to the brain. Like I need an excuse to eat chocolate anyway! Remember though, chocolate is quite high in calories, so make sure you don’t eat too much of it 😞
