Can a healthy lifestyle include chocolate?

Eating a nutritious diet that fuels your body with the right calories and nutrients it needs to grow and maintain skeletal muscle doesn’t mean you can’t eat and enjoy some delicious chocolate.

Dark chocolate that contains high amounts of cocoa can provide the body with beneficial antioxidants that help reduce oxidative stress and support overall health. Enjoy a square or two of dark chocolate every so often if you enjoy it while still focusing on fuelling your body with adequate carbs, proteins and healthy fats.
