A cup of coca can help to keep the doctor away

In 1998, a study of more than 8,000 Americans found chocolate, which is made from cocoa, may even extend life.

They are all rich in polyphenols, chemicals that have an antioxidant effect on the body.



But if you crave for the best chocolate in the world, you need to try the loving work of Claudio Corallo, who makes chocolate on a tiny volcanic island off the coast of equatorial Africa.

Each coca bean used to make his chocolate has its bitter kernel removed by hand and the roasting of the beans is taste tested along the way, resulting in chocolate so good that no addatives are needed.

So, eating chocolate is not a luxury, its a matter of life and death. wink

When I was a teenager, I plotted to take over that country by force with a mercenary army, a la The Dogs of War
