Chocolate prevents heart disease. Causes cancer. Contributes to global warming and the rape culture.

I read this before that they finally discovered that chocolate is actually good for you.

Nice to see it in a medical journal too.

However, the authors stress that further studies are needed to test whether chocolate actually causes this reduction or if it can be explained by some other unmeasured (confounding) factor....

I finally found a study I would volunteer for.

I tend to believe the studies that say good tasting food is good for you and discount the others
