Chocolate Healing!

Just 1 ounce of a very special chocolate packs more than twice the healthy antioxidant punch of red wine! It's true! Cocoa is rich in antioxidant flavonoids called flavonols, which include procyanidins, epicatechins, and catechins, explains Harold Schmitz, Ph.D. Studies have shown that people with high blood levels of flavonoids have lower risk of heart disease, lung cancer, prostate cancer, asthma, and type 2 diabetes.
This amazing chocolate can...
  • act as an antioxidant.
  • keep blood platelets from clumping together
  • increase blood vessel flexibility.

What are you waiting for? Grab your cocoa today! :)
