Dark chocolate is an amazing superfood, made from the seed of the cocoa tree. It is one of the best sources of antioxidants, polyphenols and favanols. Studies show that dark chocolate can improve health and lower the risk of heart disease. Also contains good amounts of fiber, iron, magnesium, copper, manganese, potassium, phosphorus, zinc and selenium. The plant based fats are mostly saturated and monosaturated, with small amounts of polyunsaturates.
Dark chocolate is also known to improve brain function and contains stimulants like caffeine and theobromine, but less likely to keep you up at night, the amounts are smaller than a cup of coffee.
A great morning or afternoon snack packed with nutrients. And well the taste, for you chocolate lovers out there, one more good reason to enjoy.
