Power of dark chocs

Great news for chocolate lovers..... toink3!!! MySpace
Chemistry Central Journal claims that choc contains more antioxidants (polyphenols and flavonals) than fruit juice. However take note that the research conducted by HERSHEY-----> kisses contohnya!

The US-based National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute analysed the chocolate habits of almost 5 000 adults. Those who ate chocolate five or more times a week were 60% less likely to have heart disease. Plus a German study, European Heart Journal, found that modest chocolate intake had a significant effect on people's blood pressure. MySpace

But dont get too exited!!- Dr Mehmet Oz and Dr Mike Roizen, best-selling authors and celebrity experts, advice that the flavounoid antioxidants in dark chocolate are so powerful that a tiny piece will suffice.

"You dont need a whole bar." they said. " A daily piece the size of a Hershey's Kiss can lower your blood pressure."
