Dark chocolate is a rich, bittersweet treat made from cacao beans, originating in Central and South America. It typically contains a high percentage of cocoa solids, often ranging from 70% to 99%, with minimal added sugars or milk. Packed with antioxidants such as flavonoids, it may support heart health by improving blood flow and reducing inflammation. Dark chocolate also provides essential minerals like magnesium, iron, and zinc, contributing to overall well-being. However, it is calorie-dense and can be high in saturated fat, so moderation is key. Its bold flavor makes it a versatile ingredient in desserts or enjoyed on its own in many global cuisines. Opting for varieties with minimal additives ensures you gain its nutritional benefits without compromising on health.
