Is dark chocolate actually good for you?

Описание: Is dark chocolate good for you?

A recent meta-analysis has proved that dark chocolate is good for you!

Why? Because it’s so incredibly high in polyphenols which helps to lower your LDL, lowers blood sugar, and reduces blood pressure.

Here’s what you need to know:

1️⃣ When selecting dark chocolate, look for 70% cacao or greater
2️⃣ It is still highly caloric which is okay - so are things like walnuts, avocado, and olive oil

As always: all things in moderation. Dark chocolate can absolutely fit into your diet and help improve your health markers.
