IS CHOCOLATE GOOD FOR HEALTH?

For many years, chocolate has been described as unhealthy food, and to categorize it as "JUNK FOOD",  For me, do not fully agree with, also do not completely disagree. Recent year, according to the scientist report, moderate consumption of chocolate is good for your heart, it may lower your blood pressure, cholesterol, improved our blood circulation, prevention of memory decline, could relax nervous system, etc.

Chocolate can be good for you

Many previous studies have linked eating chocolate with health benefits, including: 

A 2008 study found that people who ate a small amount of dark chocolate a day (about 6.7 grams) had lower levels of a protein that is associated with inflammation in their blood. 

Other recent studies have found that blood platelets clump together more slowly in chocolate eaters. Clumping platelets can lead to the formation of blood clots, which in turn can cause a heart attack. 

Chocolate consumption may lower blood pressure, help prevent formation of artery plaques and improve blood flow, according to other research. 

Eating chocolate may even help with math, or at least counting. A study reported in 2009 showed that people did a better job of counting backwards in groups of three after they had consumed a hot cocoa drink containing large amounts of a compound found in chocolate. These compounds, called flavonoids, which we'll get to later, may increase blood flow to the brain. 

Chocolate may also have anti-cancer benefits because flavonoids may help reduce the cell damage that can spur tumor growth.
