That may sound like it's not good, but it is! The Daily Mail reported on the story from researchers at the University of Surrey who also state "dark chocolate, which is high in cocoa, can lower your blood pressure and make your veins and arteries healthier, too."
They're even confirming through other studies that cocoa can lower cholesterol too.
