I wonder how it would be without a world of chocolate.. tried hard to cut down on the same. Looks like getting rid of a good habit.. So, probably you guys can help before I become a diabetic.
I've read articles that coacoa has started to become good for health now.. but what's the limit? Is it really good for health? How many bar chocolates can I eat everyday without ruining my health? Does it put on weight? If it doesn't cause harm, scientifically, is it possible to live on chocolates alone?
I wonder if I'm stoopid?? But I 'am' serious!!
Anyways, expecting a piece of a paragraph from one of you..
I don't think a standard chocolate bar per day is going to hurt one's health appreciably so long as one stays thin & low body fat. Dark chocolate is better than milk chocolate; something about the polyphenols binding to the milk. Etc.

There is some evidence that cocoa contains some beneficial substances, and it doesn't raise cholesterol: The main fatty acids are oleic and stearic, which have little effect or even a beneficial effect. The problem is that most commercial chocolate is combined with a lot of milk fat or other bad fats. You have to search and read the labels to find something acceptable. Some of the mint chocolates are. Or use the straight dark baker's chocolate to make your own confections (it doesn't taste very good by itself).

Another chemical there called Catechin In just a few years, I expect that (the wiser) chocolate manufacturers will prominently list on their packages how much catechins they have in them.

I love chocolate MORE than you! I'm 50 and just love it. My weight is normal, my blood pressure is low, my health is very good. But I don't eat just any chocolate, I can't stand cheap bad tasting candy or pastries. I like those Russell Stover Mint Dream chocolates, best, right now. Also, I like good home-made fudge, home made chocolate chip cookies and rich cakes. I also like Bourbon Balls. It will be years before you taste any good bourbon balls, but, if you love chocolate, this will be your favorite food.
