There are many benefits that may come with moderate chocolate consumption. One of the main nutrients known to be beneficial to the human body is "flavanol." Flavanol is a type of a flavonoid‚ which has been linked to reducing the risk of cardiovascular problems and lowering cholesterol levels. A professor from Gachon University said flavanols are more prevalent in dark chocolates. (KOREAN) - - "I recommend the intake of dark chocolate rather than milk chocolate. Flavanol gets rid of active oxygen radicals which is helpful in maintaining cardiovascular health." A recent study held by researchers in Canada's Laval University also reaffirmed the benefits chocolate can give to pregnant mothers and their children. Their study suggests that pregnant mothers who ate 30 grams of chocolate every day for 12 weeks‚ showed a noticeable improvement in their placental blood circulation. But even though experts acknowledge the health benefits of chocolate‚ they stress the importance of "moderate consumption." Since chocolate also contains high levels of sugar and caffeine‚ excessive intake could lead to side effects such as weight gain‚ sleep troubles and even diabetes. Kim Mok-yeon‚ Arirang News.
