Chocolate Contains Antioxidants

Do you crave chocolate regularly? I will admit to having chocolate cravings fairly often and caving in to them as well. Chocolate is found to have antioxidant benefits and does not contain as much caffeine as one might think. A cup of coffee contains 100 mg of caffeine while an average size piece of chocolate contains only 10 mg of caffeine. Chocolate is also rich in magnesium and phosphorus. The higher the percentage of cocoa  butter and the darker the chocolate it is believed to deliver more health benefits. So don’t stop eating your chocolate just make sure you’re mainly eating the darker and  70 percent cocoa butter chocolate more often than those cheap chocolate bars that get us every now and then.


I’ve been creating designs related to chocolate and coffee themes for my store Designs by Shell Here are a few of my items for you to see…
