Send your valentine a sweet treat

February 13th, 2009

Hi, Everyone –

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, so if you are still trying to figure out what you should get for your sweetheart, try an old standby – chocolate. Not only will he or she appreciate your sweetness, it can be good for health as well!

According to the University of Texas Cancer Prevention Center, dark chocolate can actually fight off cancer. Antioxidants in the chocolate can help fend-off cell damage that can cause tumors to grow. Off course, it goes without saying that moderation is key. You can treat yourself and your loved one without derailing your progress this year. So get some chocolate, grab your Valentine and have a great weekend!
