Skin-Clearing Chocolates
August 19th, 2008
Think chocolates cause breakouts? Think again. Sugar-free Frutels harness the skin-clearing properties of antioxidant, polypheonol-packed dark chocolate (which have 300 times the antioxidant capacity of blueberries). Turns out the premium, all-natural variety helps the body ward off the effects of oxidative stress, and we can’t say that we’re totally surprised. How many times have we turned to a rich chocolate brownie on a bad day, and felt one millions times better as we let the crumbs tumble from the corners of our mouths? Polyphenols help to reduce inflammation in the body, which translates as calm, clearer skin. Chocolate candies that beautify? A winning invention.
