When we were little, it has always been a source of our tantrums every time our parents exclude the chocolate bars we slipped into the grocery cart. We must admit, its everybody’s favorite.

The greater the amount of calories, the greater the risk of developing diseases. This paranoia lead to some people not to consume chocolates at all. There has been a study recently which proved that people who ate the most chocolate had a 27 percent and 48 percent reduced risk of heart attack and stroke. Sounds ironic isn’t it?

However Buijsse emphasized on the kind of chocolate that you would eat. “Dark chocolate exhibits the greatest effects, milk chocolate fewer, and white chocolate no effects.” Based on the study, compared with people who rarely ate chocolate (about one bar per month), the people who ate the most chocolate (slightly more than one bar per week) had a 27 percent and 48 percent reduced risk of heart attack and stroke, respectively, the researchers found.
