Chocolate-Dipped Watermelon

Everybody loves chocolate; even your heart! New studies in food and nutrition science suggest that dark chocolate is healthy for your body due to inflammation and gut microbes.  Gut bugs (sounds gross!) gorge on the fiber and antioxidants in dark chocolate, fermenting them into compounds that have anti-inflammatory effects on the heart, says food scientist John Finley. It's double the impact when you pair dark chocolate with fruit, which also has the same compounds.
