Eating lots of chocolate helps people stay thin, study finds

"The researchers found that the participants - who were an average age of 57 - ate chocolate for an average of twice of week and exercised roughly 3.5 times per week. But the more frequent chocolate-eaters had smaller BMIs, a ratio of height and weight that's used to measure obesity.

"What explains the effect? Even though chocolate can be loaded with calories, it's full of antioxidants and other ingredients that may promote weight loss, the researchers said."

One of my favorite home brews, Chocolate Stout. Very hard to master:D
Strong aroma has a sweet chocolate overtone and caramel, coffee and maple syrup notes.
