August 29/Stockholm/CBS News -- Consuming a moderate amount of chocolate weekly may lower the risk of stroke for men, according to a new study.
For the Swedish study, 37,103 men between the ages of 49-75 were asked to complete a food questionnaire that looked at their diet and how often they ate chocolate. Researchers then followed their health records for 10 years to see which of the subjects had a stroke. They identified 1,995 cases of first stroke.
