Does chocolate have cardiovascular benefits?

READ THE EVIDENCE-BASED ANSWER FROM THE JOURNAL OF FAMILY PRACTICE ( HERE ) ..... Based on available evidence, it appears that, YES, EATING CHOCOLATE REDUCES BLOOD PRESSURE which is of course very important in reducing risk of developing cardio-vascular disease. In the lingo of medical evidence, this evidence is considered to have a “strength of recommendation (SOR) B” meaning that there are limitations to studies done so far on the subject. (A lot of what is routine medical practice is based on opinion only or much weaker or even absent evidence. So SOR B, while not optimal, is not bad.) For example, no studies, however, have evaluated the long-term cardiovascular effects of chocolate. But, it is clearly feasible since chocolate contains high levels of flavonol and a diet rich in flavonoids is associated with reduced death rates from coronary heart disease (also a SOR: B)

So, take your blood pressure medicine and some chocolate every day!
