Take heart, chocolate lovers
"What these chocolate 'offenders' taught us is that the chemical
in cocoa beans has a biochemical effect similar to Aspirin (ASA) in reducing platelet clumping, which can be fatal if a clot forms and blocks a blood vessel, causing a heart attack," lead author Diane Becker of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine said in a statement. Eating a little bit of chocolate or having a drink of hot cocoa as part of a regular diet is probably good for personal health, so long as people don't eat too much of it - and too much of the kind with lots of butter and sugar," Dr. Becker said. http://www.chocolatebite.blogspot.com http://www.cure4imsomnia.blogspot.com koko |
