Get your Dark Chocolate!



According to this article, dark chocolate will help ward off pancreatic cancer.  So a single square, an ounce will provide a quarter of your day's magnesium needs!  I think it's reason enough to add dark chocolate to my daily diet how about you?  Magnesium is also found in spinach, cashews, sunflower seed and pumpkins seeds.

I really like dark chocolate. Not many people do. It's a different taste.

I eat spinach and sunflower seeds on a regular basis, but dark chocolate would be a great way to make sure I'm getting enough :-)

I tend to take multivitamins so I get at least a good enough portion of everything to keep you healthy

It's also fattening, though. How does all that sugar affect diabetes?

Christine said...

Of course chocolates aren't good for diabetics maybe just a bite!

I looooooove dark chocolate, preferably with at least 70% cocoa :D
I have A LOT every day LOL :) It doesn't have much sugar and all the health benefits make it a little less bad ;)
Enjoy the chocolate! Have an amazing day!
Lots of hugs to you,
Beate

I much prefer dark chocolate to milk chocolate. Good to know there are some positive benefits to it.

Dark chocolate has been my favorite for decades – but it is not as easy to find here as in Europe. To know that it is good for you is an added bonus.

I love love love dark chocolate. I even avoid milk chocolate if there's dark chocolate to be had.
