You may have received a lot of goodies this year as Easter treats. But, before you go ahead and toss out that chocolate bunny thinking, “I probably shouldn’t“, check and see if it’s dark.

Several studies also suggest that dark chocolate may be a contributor to reducing poor heart health, bad cholesterol, and high blood pressure.
