Most of us already know that eating small amounts of dark chocolate contain nutrients that help reduce the risk of heart disease, not to mention that it just tastes so darn good!But now another study from the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology indicates it can also protect our skin from sun damage and wrinkling. Researchers say you need the least processed and the darkest chocolate for the best protection. Once again it has to do with the rich flavonoids and antioxidants that protect us, just like what we also find in our fruits and vegetables, so don't forget those! ( maybe not as tasty as chocolate but they have a lot less calories. (It's all about balance and moderation.)
