A new analysis finds a potential link between regular consumption of chocolate and a reduced risk of heart disease. Those who eat the most chocolate on a regular basis lower their risk by one-third.

The analysis — published yesterday in the online version of the British Medical Journal — examined recent studies involving more than 100,000 people, looking for a trend.

The studies compared people who ate chocolate more than once a week to those who ate it less often. The chocolate lovers also cut their risk of diabetes by 31 percent and of stroke by 29 percent.
