Hey Chocolate Lovers.......... today is your day!! 23rd September is Chocolate Day, so go grab your most favourite types of chocolate and spoil yourself with it!! Don't feel sinful - only for today!!
As today is special, then let me share with you a short article on 'Dark Chocolate'.
The darker the chocolate, the better. Dark chocolate contains cocoa phenols, compounds known to lower blood pressure, as well as an antioxidant called flavanol, which helps neutralise cell-damaging substances known as "oxygen free radicals". Italian researchers found that volunteers who ate 100g of dark chocolate daily for 15 days had lower blood pressure levels.
But remember that dark chocolate is also rich in fat and calories, and may contribute to unwanted weight gain when consumed in large quantities.
There you are friends...... it should be alright only for one day, but not everyday........ haha! My earlier blog dated July 12th is also about Chocolate, in case you want to know more. Allow me to present you pictures of chocolates, just to make your mouth waters, then go get them for yourselves........ Enjoy your chocolates friends...........
