Eat your vegetables? Eat your chocolate for antioxidant health
Dark chocolate is chocked full of the same antioxidant flavonoid health benefit as brightly-colored dark vegetables. The antioxidant confection known as the decadent treat of lovers and those who enjoy the finer things in life promotes heart health, balances hormones, slows aging, and might even reduce cancer risk. If those were not enough reasons to extol the health benefit of chocolate, dark chocolate stimulates pleasurable feel good endorphins, works as a stimulant and helps to fight depression. Only dark chocolate -- milk chocolate does not offer the same health benefits. And not all chocolatiers make the same chocolate confections.
Named Google's Willy Wonka, chocolatier Charles Siegel delivers a free and unlimited supply of premium dark chocolate made with organic ingredients to company cafeterias for employees who work at Google's Mountain View, California headquarters. Your employer not as generous? Chocolate aficionados who do not work for Google can find these handmade high quality chocolates at Charles Chocolates online. Some of the chocolate is sold in edible chocolate boxes. No need to recycle. Sweet.
Yes, vegetables will not expand your waistline the way dark chocolate might in the same quantity. Eat your vegetables, and more vegetables than chocolate. But enjoy your dark chocolate knowing it offers both pleasure and health benefits.
