4 Reasons Chocolate Is Good for Your Health

By By Deborah Enos, CN, Columnist | LiveScience.com – 8 hrs ago (est. 11:00)

Chocolate is one of my favorite foods; not only because it is tasty, but also because it's really good for your health.

The most recent evidence of this comes from an August study in the journal Neurology.  Researchers found that chocolate may help older people keep their brains healthy and their thinking sharp. Study participants who drank two cups of cocoa daily for 30 days showed an 8.3 percent increase in blood flow to the brain, and they improved their scores on memory and thinking tests. Score!
