Health benefits of dark chocolate

Health benefits of dark chocolate

Good for your skin

One of the top dark chocolate benefits for skin is attributed to its flavonol content and its ability to protect against sun damage. Some research also indicates that regular consumption of chocolate may also reduce skin roughness, enhance hydration and improve blood flow to the skin. 

Dark Chocolate Is Nutritious

 The darker the chocolate the better, but any 70 percent dark chocolate or higher contains antioxidants, fiber, potassium, calcium, copper, and magnesium, according to a study published in the journal Antioxidants & Redox Signaling. It also contains a good chunk of calories and fat, so be mindful of your daily intake.

Improves Blood Pressure

Several studies show that adding chocolate to your diet can reduce blood pressure levels, which could help protect against conditions like heart disease and stroke

Brain function

Eating dark chocolate may improve brain function and help prevent neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
