I meant to reply to this ages ago! I have read that dark chocolate is good to eat anytime (if it has at least 65% cocoa). Its only the milk stuff that isn't good because its full of sugar and fat. Dark chocolate has lots of minerals in it that are good for women and something in it that makes you feel good as well!!!!
