11. Dark Chocolate

Believe it or not, dark chocolate has many health benefits, including beneficial effects on blood pressure, insulin resistance, vascular function, and cholesterol.

Dark chocolate with 70 to 85% cocoa contains a healthy amount of iron, manganese, and magnesium, but it also has a lot of calories and sugar. The key to enjoying this superfood is to do so in moderation.
