The findings, based on a review of three

study, which included nearly 45,000
people, found that those who ate one
serving of chocolate per week were 22%
less likely to have a stroke than those
who ate no chocolate. (According to

the antioxidant equivalent of two
glasess of red wine or 11/3 cups of
blueberries.) A Thrid study, which

Of course, the problem with this

research is that it doesn’t clarify which

actually play a pivotal role in reducing
stroke risk? That, researcher say, is the
question for a future study.
