People who eat dark chocolate less likely to be depressed, study reveals

Researchers from UCL have revealed that eating dark chocolate can actually help to relieve depressive symptoms. In the study, the team looked at data from 13,626 adults, including their chocolate consumption, depressive symptoms, and a range of other factors including their height, physical activity and any other chronic health problems. The analysis of the data revealed that participants who reported eating dark chocolate in two 24-hour periods had 70% lower odds of reporting depressive symptoms than those who didn’t eat chocolate at all.
