Two pounds of heaven!

 

I just finished my birthday treat!

My favorite has always been dark chocolate!

And just reading the package information,

I don't need to feel guilty for my indulgence =)

"Natural source of flavanol antioxidants"

Bonus; serving size is 1/4 cup!

I studied further...

"Dark chocolate and cocoa are rich in cell-protecting antioxidants -

natural compounds found in fruits, vegetables, grains and nuts.

Recent studies have shown dark chocolate and cocoa

may be good for your heart.

In short-term clinical trials,

dark chocolate has reduced blood pressure,

improved blood flow, showed mild anti-clotting effects

and may help prevent plaque formation in arteries.

Despite its sweet reputation,

dark chocolate has a low glycemic index similar to that of oatmeal —

meaning it does not send your blood sugar spiking." =) 

 

 

 

Thanks Sheldon for

"The perfect pairing of sweetened real fruit juice pieces dipped in luscious dark chocolate"

for "the ultimate chocolate experience." =)

I feel so healthy and happy!
