Dark Chocolate for Brain and Heart | Leeds News
Description
Dark chocolate, in small doses—just two squares a day—might just be your brain and heart’s new best friend, thanks to powerful flavonoids in cocoa. Backed by late Dr. Michael Mosley and science, it could boost memory, improve blood flow, and even help insulin sensitivity, especially for women with Type Two Diabetes. But here’s the catch: only dark chocolate with 70%+ cocoa counts; milk and white chocolate won’t cut it. Also, avoid Dutch-processed varieties—they strip away those good compounds. So go ahead, savor that bitter bite—but remember, moderation is key. Too much, even of this “good stuff,” can backfire with weight gain or cholesterol spikes. Keep it balanced, and enjoy your treat guilt-free.
