Dark Chocolate

Okay, first and foremost, it’s important to make sure that you’re clear that we are only talking about dark chocolate here, as milk chocolate is not healthy or beneficial for the skin. In fact, milk chocolate can cause your skin to become greasy and spotty.

Dark chocolate, though, is different. Dark chocolate is loaded full of powerful antioxidants that help to protect the skin cells, hydrate the skin, and protect it from UV damage from the sun.

The antioxidants found in dark chocolate also boost circulation so more oxygenated blood can reach the skin cells, along with more nutrients, helping to keep the skin cells fit and healthy.
