Aspirin or Chocolate?

Sometimes science advances in that strangest ways. In an article released a few years ago scientists reported that frequent ingestion of chocolate had similar effects on blood clotting as daily aspirin. Hooray! The really great part is that the 'participants' in this study were in fact just folks who got kicked off the aspirin study because they couldn't adhere to the dietary regimen. Why not? They just couldn't stop eating chocolate--even for as little as 24 hours.

We know how they feel...

Here's another reference from NPR, in case you like your news in audio format :-)
