Khat is chocolate in general?

 is a raw or processed food produced from the seed of the tropical Theobroma cacao tree. The
fruit, known as cacao beans, are fermented, dried, roasted, and ground, and the resulting product is called
cocoa liquor, which can be separated into cocoa butter, a smooth, solid fat used in both food and
cosmetics, and cocoa powder. Cocoa butter and cocoa powder are combined in various proportions with
other ingredients to produce chocolate. Common varieties of chocolate are dark chocolate, milk
chocolate, and white chocolate. Chocolate can be eaten on its own, but it also pairs well with dried
or candied fruits, nuts, fondant, and marzipan.

Recent researchers have found ways of defining the nature of chocolate and its effect towards our health.
By making the right choices, you will see that chocolate too can contribute to a better well-being. All
these times, chocolates are infamous as a fattening food and causes of acnes.

On the other hand, chocolate is made from plants, which means it contains many of the health benefits of
dark vegetables. These benefits are from flavonoids, which act as antioxidants. Yes, chocolate is a
champion antioxidant! Antioxidants protect the body from aging caused by free radicals, which can
cause damage that leads to heart disease.

Antioxidants bond to free radicals and whisk them from your body via digestion and other means. No
doubt, there are many other food containing antioxidant, such as red wine, green tea, pomegranate,
blueberries, strawberries and etc. However, chocolate topped all of them. Among so many types of
chocolates, dark chocolate contain the most antioxidant. Antioxidant-rich diets have been linked to a
lowered risk of heart attacks, stroke, cardiovascular disease, cancer, high blood pressure, cholesterol
problems, arthritis, asthma, Alzheimer¶s and more.

In this research, we choose chocolate as the topic because chocolate has become one of the most popular
food types and flavors not only in Malaysia but throughout the world. Chocolate is one of the things that
we can give as present during certain occasion such as birthday, anniversary, Valentine¶s Day and etc.
Chocolate is also used in cold and hot beverages, to produce chocolate milk and hot chocolate. Chocolate
also can be used in many ways such as an aroma for perfume, as a spa treatment, toothpaste flavor and
popular used as an ingredient for making cakes, biscuits and pastries.
