Older women who eat dark chocolate once or twice a week could be lowering their risk of heart failure, says a US study.
It found those eating chocolate once or twice a week cut the risk of developing heart failure by a third, but those eating it every day did not benefit.
The Boston study, in a journal of the American Heart Association, looked at nearly 32,000 Swedish women aged between 48 and 83 over nine years.
I want to be an old woman.
