    07:55 This is an insane advice! At 07:33 they said that the 100% chocolate is free of sugar and even diabetic-friendly, which is true, but then they procede to advise to eat it with dried fruit or peanut butter, both of which are full of sugar! With an advice like that you might be better off enjoying your 72% or even 50%+ chocolate, the ammount of sugar you consume might even be lower.

    Chocolate brings joy and antioxidants-what a combination! 🍫 Going for high cocoa content while savoring in moderation is definitely the sweet spot.

    What about "dark chocolate", does a "bulk rectangle version" exist? What about the tray like half width of Cadbury maybe to wrap like that using aluminium? Planning to combine own recipe: choc-percent maybe like that as a "stocks left" type of website 1 day. Sometimes we just desire a kind of sweetness in life, the positioning and location of "safer from voltage from equator hole" could cause to be inside house, online order.

    Thats because conventional chocolate are high in glucose percentage than actual cacao. Sugar breeds and ferment in gut. Also depending on context. Saying chocolate is bad is just generalization without any context.

    quack doctor lol. she should only stop eating it(always in moderation) if she has preexisting gi issues like gerd, ibs, crohn's disease etc. if it is sugar free, some artificial sweeteners like sugar alcohols can cause digestive issues in some people but it is unrelated to gut bacteria balance. The only real issue with eating too much chocolate is the sugar.
