Chocolate Is Healthier Than Fruit!
No Wonder I'm so healthy!! For some reason, I think this study was done with an ulterior motive.
–According to a new study, chocolate is actually healthier than fruit! A study that was conducted by . . . Hershey’s.–Really.
It was done at the Hershey Center for Health and Nutrition. They found that cocoa powder actually contains more healthy compounds and antioxidants than fruit juices and a lot of fruits themselves.
–They’re pushing for cocoa beans to be added to the list of “superfoods” . . . which are foods that have exceptional nutrition, and antioxidants, and also taste good. Strawberries, blackberries, and oranges are all considered superfoods.
–The study didn’t take into account that the chocolate we eat isn’t just pure cocoa . . . it’s almost always filled with things that other fruits aren’t . . . like fat and sugar.
