Don’t know enough of the science to comment. But I love chocolate, so I’m going to say it’s good for me :)

What do you think about the benefits of chocolate? Back in 2004, M&M Mars introduced a line of products called CocoaVia. These were things like powders enriched with cocoa flavanols that you could add to milk or other drinks. Supposedly aided circulation. Anyway, the idea that chocolate is health food has never taken off, but CocoaVia is still around: http://www.cocoavia.com/why-it-works/cocoa-flavanol-benefits

Run and beer…always a good combo!

I also read Science Based Medicine, and this post had me do a double-take as to which feed I was reading.
