The short study would need to be confirmed in larger, longer-term ones before doctors could recommend treatment with chocolate, researchers say.Purely in the interests of scientific research, I hereby volunteer for the larger, longer-term studies.

Coffee flavoids too. Of course those flavoids are destroyed in drip and perked coffee.

You will also notice that a fine chocolate tells your pallet that you don't need more.While working in the industry, I don't think I ever reached that point. Nothing beats breaking a ten pound bar of cool dark chocolate and popping a large chip into your mouth to suck on. In my twenty years of chocolates making, I often ate a pound a day, for quality control, you know.

Well, then, a dark chocolate and red wine tasting must be the perfect gift of health!
THIS is what I am buying hubby for his birthday. Dark chocolate is his favorite. I will also buy the appropriate wines (not from France) to go with the dark chocolates.

This could explain my excellent blood pressure numbers (and my cheerful personality!)
Who cares what the question is. The answer is chocolate.

A chunk of wild salmon done on a grill covered with smashed blue berries in a Pinot Noir sauce, with Pinot Noir to enjoy followed with dark chocolate is now good for us. God is good!

Agree 100% especially about chocolate with espresso. I do that before I exercise every day. I've tried a lot of different chocolates and like most of them. My favorite might be dark Lindor with the liquid dark center.

Science finally caught up with me. I don't eat candy except imported Swiss or German dark or bittersweet choc bars, Dove choc ice cream bars with dark choc coating, and Fanny May creams coated with dark choc.
Hershey's dark chocolate bars are like biting into lardified frisbees.
(Once in a while, I do indulge in a Fanny May root beer barrel, yum yum.

Fine dark chocolates also match well with many fine red wines. And as for how well it matches with a fine cup of espresso(the only real way to drink coffee), one needs to find that out on their own. Words cannot describe. In his several books about beer, food critic Michael Jackson mentions that many of the richer stouts are very good accompaniment to dark chocolate. Some stouts actually include small amounts of cocoa as a flavoring agent.
Of course, if you sit down to a pint of Dominion Imperial Stout and four ounces of Belgian dark chocolate, you might as well skip dinner...

I'm into the Belgian bars that say "80% cocoa" on the label :)

Speaking of centers, an employee of mine used to go to Europe and bring back chocolates filled with WHIPPED CREAM that had been flavored with LIQUEURS. Not available in this country that I know of--because of the liquor?
