The study found that women who had the highest consumption of chocolate -- about two candy bars a week -- had a 20 percent reduced risk of stroke.
But wait - that's not all, (as they say in the infomercials).
Chocolate's benefits don't end there, Larsson said, adding that dark chocolate consumption has also been found to reduce blood pressure, lower insulin resistance and help keep your blood from forming dangerous clots.
It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

when there is discussion about my allowable ingredient list - we all know the conversation people ask 'well, what do you eat???"

Thanks Gabe,
I'm willing to pay more for something that is really good and since it would be "all mine" it would last quite a while.
I have ordered a couple of Orgran products (pancake mix and self-rising flour) and found them more to my liking than others I have tried. I should try some more of their products. Problem is I'm really trying hard to lose more weight so I don't like to have too much around to tempt me. From my heaviest point around 3 years ago, I have lost about 36 lbs. I still want to lose at least 20 more. If I do, I'm sure I'll look like a wrinkled up old prune but........ what the heck. HaHa

Y'all are so lucky. I tested quite sensitive to chocolate (cocoa) on MRT. Sigh. I knew I couldn't tolerate it from experience, but it was still a bummer to find out definitively.
