Episode 26: Chocolate Is Not A Health Food

Welcome to Episode 26 of The Road to Carnivore Podcast!

This 7-minute episode discusses why chocolate is not a health food.

The public perception of chocolate has been massively affected by "studies" sponsored by chocolate companies that draw unreasonably positive conclusions about chocolate.

If someone wants to eat chocolate for the sake of enjoyment, then fine. But no one should be "eating chocolate for the health benefits."
