Chocolate Prevents Diabetes

Welcome back!

The antioxidant flavonoids in chocolate have been getting a lot of praise lately.

The ironic part of the health benefits of chocolate is that the brown pigment has been shown to prevent type 2 diabetes. And it’s good for your blood vessels.

But remember, this is not true for just any chocolate bar or cake. It has to contain at least 70% pure cacao to give you any benefit.

Whenever you’re in New York City make sure to pass by Max Brenner’s Chocolate Bar. If you like chocolate this is a place you don’t want to miss.
