Chocolate is a favorite treat for many people.
However, few people know how much chocolate you can actually eat per day.
Let's figure out the dosage so that the treat brings benefits and does not harm the body.
How much chocolate can you eat per day
Let's start with the fact that the dosage is primarily influenced by the type of chocolate you are going to enjoy.
Dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is considered the most beneficial.
It can be eaten even every day. However, the amount should not exceed 30-50 grams.
Cocoa beans contain caffeine, which is why even 40 grams of the treat are comparable to a cup of strong black coffee.
As for sweeter milk chocolate, it is recommended to limit its daily consumption to 20 grams.
But it is recommended to refuse white chocolate altogether. This delicacy contains cocoa butter, dry milk, vanillin and sugar. At the same time, you will not find that very healthy ingredient - cocoa mass - in white chocolate.
