The truth is nine out of ten people love chocolate and 50% say they can’t live without it. Recent studies shown that some chocolates can actually have positive health effects. But these aren’t the name-brand chocolate bars you would find at your local grocery store.
An internationally recognized expert in the field of alternative medicine focusing on diet and nutrition, Dr. Keith Scott-Mumby, has studied the properties and benefits of dark chocolate and feels the proper dark chocolate should be a part of our daily diet.
“Chocolate is made from the beans of the cacao tree, Theobroma Cacao,” says Scott-Mumby. He explains that plant flavanoids are commonly known for their antioxidant activity. “A small bar of chocolate can contain as many flavanoids as six apples, as four and a half cups of tea or two glasses of red wine.” Dark chocolate also can be an effective apatite suppressant and aid in weight loss.
Properly processed dark actually provides great benefits without the unhealthy ingredients that are often included in the common chocolate bar. Good dark chocolate can help you lose weight; help thin you blood, improve your mood and can actually address ant-aging and has a number of other significant health benefits.

She decided that The Doctor’s Chocolate was going to be a treat that she could eat that would help her suppress her appetite. After four months she lost 50 pounds and is continuing to follow her diet. “Eating The Doctor’s Chocolate has helped me along because it has kept me from eating other junk food, it has helped suppress my appetite, and it has helped me to remain calm and not so stressed when you’re missing out on all the other treats,” comments Palmer.
