Chocolate is a treasured dessert across the world, but few people realize how unique and special the decadent treat actually is. Beginning with the people of Meso-america, chocolate has had a reigning role in many cultural traditions. Whether it is used to symbolize wealth and importance or is given as an expression of love and admiration, chocolate has earned a status that many other types of food can never hope to reach.

Chocolate has been used for hundreds of years to cure many ailments, including headaches, stomach troubles and fatigue. Modern dark chocolate contains the same properties as the medicinal chocolate that physicians used in the past and therefore offers many of the same healing benefits.
