THE CHOCOLATE DIET? "A new study shows that people who eat chocolate frequently have lower body mass indexes than those who eat it less often.

But they suspect that antioxidants and other compounds in chocolate may deliver a metabolic boost that can offset its caloric downside. Chocolate Research CHOCOLATE AS GOOD AS EXERCISE? "Scientists found that small amounts of dark chocolate may improve health in a similar way to exercise. The researchers focused on the mitochondria, the tiny powerhouses in cells that generate energy, and discovered that a plant compound found in chocolate, called epicatechin, appeared to stimulate the same muscle response as vigorous activity." Small amounts of Chocolate may be as good for you as Exercise CHOCOLATE CONSUMPTION LOWER MORTALITY "Chocolate consumption was associated with lower cardiac mortality in a dose dependent manner in patients free of diabetes surviving their first AMI. Although our findings support increasing evidence that chocolate is a rich source of beneficial bioactive compounds, confirmation of this strong inverse relationship from other observational studies or large-scale, long-term, controlled randomized trials is needed."
