Would plain cocoa powder (sweetened to taste) be a lower calorie way to get the healthful qualities of chocolate without the relatively high fat and sugar content of chocolate? Cocoa powder can be incorporated into various beverages where (unlike coffee) it is consumed entirely with all it's flavanols and such. I've mixed it with orange juice for a nutrient rich and delicious beverage or it's also great in smoothies. Hot chocolate can be made using just water and a sweetener of choice. Milk isn't necessary though a dab of whipped cream on top is excellent!

The challenge with healthy chocolate is that is still has all that sugar included. You can actually get the raw cacao seed or raw chocolate powder and make your own chocolate concoctions easily. You can dip the seeds into honey or agave nectar for a great chocolate snack or you can mix the powder into your smoothies for a chocolate treat. The best thing about this is that the nutrients in the chocolate remain intact and ready for absorption. Raw chocolate is high in magnesium and even vitamin C. Magnesium is the most deficient mineral in our diets. Up to 80% of Americans are deficient in it! Here's my favorite chocolate treat - Chocolate Coconut Macaroons! Mix Raw Cacao Powder, Shaved Organic Coconut, Raw Coconut Oil, Agave Nectar, a little sea salt in a bowl with your hands. Put the mix into the fridge and wait an hour (if possible!). Then ball them up with an ice cream scoop and dehydrate (or heat at low heat in the oven) until they're firm on the outside. Live Awesome! Kevin http://www.TheRenegadeHealthShow.com

I LOVE chocolate covered cherries! But, I only eat them occasionally. They usually come 6 to a box, so I try to only have 1 a day.

I definitely can sink my teeth into that one. Besides the flavonoids, dark chocolate also contains lots of magnesium and calcium and can help dilate your arteries by improving nitric oxide bioavailability. One of my personal favorite deserts is the “Steel Cut Oat Pudding with Dark Chocolate and Lime”. For ingredients and preparation, go to: http://www.chefmd.com/recipe_display.php?id=60. I’ll tune in next week for your delicious chocolate recipes…the more the better! (source: ‘ChefMD’s big book of culinary medicine’: http://www.chefmd.com/book.php)

Chocolate to me is a form of celebration food-some people drink for celebration-get a $15,000.00 DUI after celebrating too much! I have never been arrested for eating too much Chocolate!
