Since it’s Valentine’s Day, a lot of people will be consuming chocolate.  You can do it guilt free because:

  1. Chocolate lowers blood pressure and bad cholesterol
  2. Lowers risk of heart disease
  3. Increases insulin sensitivity
  4. Protects your skin from UV damage
  5. Increases blood flow to the retina

Some people may think there is a down side to consuming too much chocolate, but we are not going to dwell on that today!

Have a Happy Valentine’s day and be sure to wipe that chocolate from the corner of your mouth.
