\n There is good news<\/a> for chocoholics, who can cut the risk of heart disease by indulging at least once a week, according to new research.<\/p>\n

A study of 336,289 people found that consuming chocolate more than once a week reduced the risk of developing coronary heart disease by 8 percent when compared to those who eat it less frequently, the Standard reported.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur study suggests that chocolate helps keep the heart\u2019s blood vessels healthy,\u201d said the study\u2019s author, Dr. Chayakrit Krittanawong of Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.<\/p>\n

The researchers combined six studies to study the link between chocolate consumption and coronary heart disease, a condition in which the arteries become blocked by a build-up of fatty substances.<\/p>\n

They said nutrients in chocolate \u2014 including flavonoids, methylxanthines, polyphenols and stearic acid \u2014 may reduce inflammation and increase good cholesterol.<\/p>\n

But Krittanawong had a caveat.<\/p>\n

\u201cModerate amounts of chocolate seem to protect the coronary arteries but it\u2019s likely that large quantities do not,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe calories, sugar, milk and fat in commercially available products need to be considered, particularly in diabetics and obese people,\u201d Krittanawong added.<\/p>\n

The participants, who were from the US, Sweden and Australia, had an average follow-up time of about nine years in the studies that spanned the past five decades.<\/p>\n

The analysis \u2014 published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology Research \u2014 found that 14,043 of the participants developed coronary heart disease.<\/p>\n

Compared with eating chocolate less than once a week, consuming it regularly more than once a week was associated with an 8 percent lower risk of the disease, the authors said.<\/p>\n

The study did not consider whether any particular kind of chocolate is better, or whether there is an ideal portion size.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
