Sweet Relationship of Dark Chocolate & Diabetes

Dark Chocolate has low glycemic index (measurement of food's impact on blood sugar level) compared to other candies or sweet foods. This means it will not cause your blood sugar level to spike and then crash. This creates a fluctuation of mood and energy level, thereby throwing off your natural hunger cues, making you feel hungry when you really aren't.

Flavonoids, a plant based antioxidant  helps in improving blood flow and keep blood vessels healthy, as impaired circulation and unhealthy blood vessels often lead to diabetes. Flavonoids trigger the production of Nitric Oxide which stimulates the blood cells to accept sugar again and thus helping in better control of Sugar Level.
