yes ofcourse sorry to say that, chocolate which contains caffeine causes arrythmias and heartattacks. chocolate causes increase in appetite, and more urination. ofcourse choco has many benefits like anti depressant, increases muscletone and many. so make to take choko only has a guest but not as a hobby. what do you think?

I agree with you , its has its benefits like anything else , when people go over board on one specific thing they are the one that make it bad for their health . We should never eat too much of anything .

Studies actually show that chocolate can help prevent heart attacks because of the antioxidants (especially dark chocolate). There are also studies that show that caffeine has its benefits as well as long as one doesn't over do it. I think that as long as you are healthy, have normal blood sugar, and exercise then chocolate isn't a bad thing (unless you get carried away).

Do not remind me, I had to under go a bypass surgery, because of my love for chocolates, I do not smoke and I do not drink, but I love sweets, and I had to pay for it. Cheers.

I don't agree that chocolate is a cause of heart attacks. It might aggravate an already existing heart condition but as to chocolate being the actual cause, I seriously doubt the veracity of that statement. Chocolates have been in existence for a very long time and my grandmother used to drink hot chocolate several times in a day and she never had a heart attack.

I have not heard that chocolate will cause heart attack. Neither does caffeine. If caffeine can cause heart attach, then coffee, tea and softdrink all will cause heart attack. However caffeine has the potential of triggering a heart attack not causing it. Heart attack happen due to bad condition of the heart. IE too much calsium or blocked vessel in the heart. As the heart condition is not healthy then heart attack will occur and many factor may trigger it. Chocolate is one of it, shock or extensive stimulant to the heart.
