  Previous research has found that chocolate can provide some essential minerals and nutrients for the body. In addition, the polyphenols present in chocolate can prolong the action time of other antioxidants in the body, promote cardiovascular relaxation, inhibit inflammatory reactions and blood clot formation.

  Researchers at Harvard Medical School followed more than 30,000 Swiss women aged 48 to 83 for nine years, regarding their dark chocolate eating habits and their chances of developing heart failure.

  The study found that women who ate dark chocolate (20g to 30g) once to three times a month were 32% less likely to develop heart failure than women who did not have the habit of eating dark chocolate. But the study also found that eating too much dark chocolate should not be too much, otherwise it will have the opposite effect.
