Chocolate New Wonder Medicine
1998-11-22 11:26:00
Can it really be true that everything we eat that tastes good is bad for us? I've often intuitively felt that things like beer, and pizza -- the soul food of programmers -- HAVE TO BE good for you. I have absolutely no proof for this position, but now the BBC is reporting that chocolate is the new health wonder drug, according to the latest research. Chocolate is a powerful immune system booster. Chocolate is just plain good medicine. So gobble some up right away.
Not only does chocolate act as immediate immune system stimulant, chocolate eating has a beneficial cumulative effect. So eat some big chocolates every day!
