If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Chocolate causes cavities. Normal consumption of milk chocolate, especially at meals, does not cause an increase in cavities. Research at the Forsyth Dental Center in Boston, Mass., has shown that chocolate has the ability to offset the acid-producing potential of the sugar it contains. Acid is believed to damage tooth enamel and cause decay.
Chocolate causes acne.
No, doesn't - and it doesn't aggravate acne either. Studies conducted at the University of Pennsylvania and the U.S. Naval Academy both showed that chocolate has no affect on acne. Chocolate milk is bad for children. It actually furnishes more zinc, potassium and iron than plain milk - and it's no more likely to cause tooth decay than plain milk. The amount of caffeine ingested when people eat chocolate in normal quantities is very small.
