Chocolate Could Lower Risk of Stroke
Good news for all us chocolate lovers: a Canadian study shows that one chocolate bar a week could reduce the risk of having a stroke. Several studies have been conducted, and one involving 44,000 individuals found that those with moderate amounts of chocolate intake were 22 percent less likely to suffer a stroke than those who did not eat chocolate. Still more evidence needs to be gathered since the direct relationship between cocoa and the risk of stroke has yet to be found. Chocolate does contain saturated fats, so be cautious on the amount of intake. If you are looking for a healthier option, you may want to try dark chocolate.
