‘While eating a square of dark chocolate does provide antioxidant benefits, the detrimental effects [from large portions] can far outweigh the benefits. Unfortunately, it is one of those feel-good foods that tends to get overeaten. Since it’s high in fat and sugar, chocolate can be the perfect storm for weight gain.
If you want to get the benefits of the antioxidants (and the taste!) without hurting your weight-loss efforts, keep it to one square a day and look for dark chocolate that is comprised of at least 70 percent cocoa solids.’ – Robert Ziltzer, MD, FACP, FAAP obesity medicine specialist at the Scottsdale Weight Loss Center
