tongue  How good is this news?! tongue   Hugs, Teri :)

 

"Eating dark chocolate may help lower blood pressure, boost normal responses to insulin to keep blood sugar levels down, and improve blood vessel function in patients with high blood pressure, according to new research findings. All of these effects would be expected to decrease the risk of heart attack and stroke."

Hugs, Teri :)
