Is Dark Chocolate is a Healthly Food ?

ABC News reports Dark Chocolate Helps Your Heart.

Here is a quote from the article published by ABC News and Good Morning America.

"Good Morning America" contributor Dr. David Katz has been conducting a study at Yale University on the health effects of chocolate.

The Yale study, which is funded by Hershey, used ultrasound technology and sophisticated measurements to assess the effects of eating dark chocolate on 45 moderately overweight adults. The study also measured participants' blood pressure before and two hours after eating two servings of dark chocolate. Sure enough, after consuming the dark chocolate, which is high in antioxidants, their blood pressure dropped. Dark chocolate also helps blood vessels dilate which allows blood to flow more freely. "

With the newly famous Doctor's Chocolate now available to consumers, consumers cannot seem to get enough of the latest and greatest Healthy Chocolate.  The Doctor's Chocolate TM, spotlighted by O Magazine Dec 2006 pg 44 , having bonus ingredients to the already natural powers of dark chocolate is making the Doctor's Chocolate the latest got-to-have food for health-concious americans.

This ABC article starts off saying that "The average American consumes 11½ pounds of regular chocolate a year. That means 11½ pounds of sugar and fat. It's a treat most physicians tell their patients to eat in moderation. ", So all that to say that if we are going to continue to eat chocolate, it may as well be the healthiest chocolate, not milk chocolate which is high in saturated fats, but healthy dark chocolate that produces serotonen to makes you feel better and relaxed;  the same dark chocolate that opens your blood vessels and relieves pressure on your heart.
