It's NOT just an old wives' tale...medical studies show that SMALL amounts of dark chocolate* can be healthy. It's not healthy to just binge on chocolate claiming that it's good for you...but, the antioxidants found in dark chocolate have been proven to reduce blood pressure.
Ladies, the next time you feel guilty for indulging yourself--don't. It's all about staying healthy, right? ;)

health benefits are only present in dark chocolate...white and milk chocolate remain, as always, only delicious. :)

Love, love, love chocolate!!!!
What, exactly, is a "small amount"?
Well, I would disagree about milk chocolate not having any health benefits... They seem to keep me happy and energetic. They have pills for that kind of stuff. I just eat chocolate. :)
