Chocolate is one of the most favorite treats. Adults and children love it.

However, many people are accustomed to thinking that there is no benefit in such a dessert. However, this is not true.

The fact is that if you choose a certain type of chocolate, it can have a positive effect on your health.

We are talking about dark chocolate.

It contains a high concentration of cocoa solids, which are loaded with powerful antioxidant properties.

This statement was made by Dr. Deborah Lee, writes the Daily Express .

The specialist also noted that cocoa is a product that is rich in flavonoids and other plant substances.

Ultimately, adding dark chocolate to your diet helps reduce levels of "bad" cholesterol.

But it is important to remember about moderation. You can't overeat such a delicacy. It is enough to eat one or two slices a day to maintain normal health.
