All chocolate lovers should be smiling to know that this superfood posseses a great deal of positive nutritional properties, mainly because of its high amount of antioxidants and minerals, but this great news does not mean we can walk into a service station and stuff our selves with Snicker bars, or not worry about what type of chocolates we are buying and eating.
The truth is that for chocolate to really be something good and healthy for our bodies it needs to be an unprocessed chocolate or at least have a very high percentage of organic Cacao and very low in sugar, reason being that once Raw Cacao is processed it looses most of its natural health qualities.
