Dark Chocolate that contains 100% Natural Cocoa . It will be bitter to taste than a regular chocolate you are having. But Dark Chocolates are rich in anti oxidant That's why it is healthy or good for you. Although i find their price more expensive than a regular chocolate too.

Yep, dark chocolate is NASTY! The candy bars and such that you get from the store have lots of sugar and stuff in it, so it's so yummy! But the chocolate that's good for you is very bitter.

I also heard that dark chocolate is the best for your health and it has to have a high percentage of cacao.

That would be dark chocolate. Dark chocolate contains flavonoids which act as antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect the body from heart disease. But be careful, though--that doesn't mean you can binge on chocolate. Too much of anything is never good. But moderate amounts can have health benefits. Also, it must be the dark variety, preferably with more than 70% cocoa. This kind can be an acquired taste, as it tends to be more bitter and less sweet. Milk chocolate has more sugar and fat, making it less healthy.

Dark Chocolate is the best for your health. I hear that Dove brand has the most benefit.
