About Semi-Sweet Chocolate:

Cocoa solids are a source of polyphenol antioxidants, such as epicatechin, that can be found in red wine and several kind of berries. It is though to be this componen that gives chocolate its health benefits.

Although milk chocolate may seem tastier than dark chocolate, try opting for semisweet instead: it contains more cocoa but has a milder flavor compared to dark ones and fewer calories than milk chocolates!

Opt for semisweet or dark chocolate in order to avoid any negative effects from milk solids present in milk chocolates; these kinds are also rich sources of iron!
