beloved by god indeed

i know everyone's interested in the latest study on chocolate and anti-oxidants/ polyphenols/ flavonoids. long-time readers know we here at bccy have been discussing this for years now (and here, for example).

eating 1.4-1.6 oz. of 70% dark chocolate a day does appear to expand your arteries, increase your blood flow and stave off arterial disease.

chocolate seems to have many unexpected scientific health benefits! that's why i personally like this website of chocolate and scientific health information.

sure, it's run by mars. they are honest about it, however.

and let's face it, in today's economic climate, fewer and fewer truly independent agencies or universities can afford to do this kind of research. so i feel you can look at this information and judge for yourself over time if it's biased.

that much of the information they cite has been published in peer-reviewed journals does add to its credibility, to my mind.

but what has me truly happy today is the famed amedei! i have a bar of both the porcelana and the chuao: heavenly, heavenly stuff.
