With 556 calories per 100 grams, it is an energy-dense food, making portion control important for those monitoring calorie intake. It contains 5.5 grams of protein, which contributes modestly to daily protein needs, and 32.4 grams of fat, primarily from cocoa butter, which includes heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. The 6.5 grams of dietary fiber support digestive health and can help promote satiety. Notably, it is low in carbohydrates at 60.5 grams per serving, with a significant portion coming from natural sugars in cocoa and any added sweeteners.
Dark chocolate is celebrated for its antioxidant properties, particularly flavonoids, which may support cardiovascular health and reduce inflammation.
