Dark Chocolate Lowers Blood Pressure!
Well, now there is a reason to eat chocolate. Dark chocolate that is. Dark chocolate can make you healthier. It contains flavonoids. The higher the cacao, the darker the chocolate, the higher the flavonoids. Flavonoids lower blood pressure in sufferers of hypertension and it can keep it lower in healthy patients. Dark chocolate also keeps platelets in the blood from clumping thus reducing the risk of heart attack or stroke. But, be careful. Older women who consume chocolate daily tend to have lower bone density. Enjoy with caution! |
