20+ Dietitian Approved Chocolate Desserts for Valentine’s Day

GIVE ME ALL THE CHOCOLATE!

Valentine’s Day is the perfect time of year to indulge in some chocolate!  What you may not know is that a little chocolate can actually benefit your health. Yes, dark chocolate is the usual go to for health benefits but milk chocolate also shows promise. The flavanols found in chocolate are the chemicals that can impact your health. They are beneficial in improving:

  • Insulin Sensitivity
  • Blood Pressure
  • HDL Cholesterol
  • LDL & Total Cholesterol
  • Mood
  • Skin Health
  • Weight Management

To keep things simple and to the point, I’ll just share some amazing recipes with you from my dietitian friends, so you can get all the chocolate too!
