Not all chocolate is good for you, let me break it down for ya ;) White Chocolate is the worst for you, technically it's not even chocolate at all, it's a type of sugar yogurt because it lacks any cocoa beans in it at all. It's pretty much just fat and sugar. Milk Chocolate has a low percentage of cocoa beans and has a lot of milk fat inside of it, making it not very healthy at all either. Dark Chocolate is considered healthy; however, due note that the higher the % of cocoa in the dark chocolate, the better that it is going to be for you. Cocoa beans are packed full of flavonoids which are antioxidants (vitamins A, C, & E) Which are good for preventing sun damage & aging and your overall system in general. Hope that helped

Chocolate is a health food because it contains nutrients such as magnesium and antioxidants. Chocolate can also affect your brains chemicals which leads to a feeling of bliss and happiness. Unprocessed chocolate contains quite a few more nutrients than processed chocolate and unprocessed chocolate would be in the form of raw cacao nibs or raw cacao powder
