The article intrigued me with its unrealistic title called 'Chocolate may help keep people slim'. I cannot believe my eyes. It is written that scientists believe that even though chocolate is loaded with calories it contains ingredients that may favour weight loss. It appears it is how often you eat chocolate that is important, rather than how much of it you eat. Also, other studies have claimed chocolate may be good for the heart. Consumption of certain types of chocolate has been linked to some favourable changes in blood pressure, insulin sensitivity and cholesterol level. Chocolate, particularly dark chocolate, does contain antioxidants which can help to mop up harmful free radicals - unstable chemicals that can damage our cells. But before you reach for a chocolate bar, there are still lots of unanswered questions. But still experts advise caution because eating too much might be harmful because it often contains a lot of sugar and fat too. So, still milky chocolate will always be a part of my life. And it doesn't matter if it helps to keep me slim or not.
