With Valentine’s Day approaching, you might find more chocolate around the house. It turns out, that tempting treat might not be such a bad snack.

That’s according to a recent study released in the Chemistry Central Journal, which says chocolate might be a more health option than fruit.

The study says that dark chocolate and cocoa have more anti-oxidant capacity than fruit juice, and also more heart healthy flavanols and polyphenol.

Cocoa beans are even considered a “super fruit,” the study says, with more antioxidant capacity than blueberries, cranberries and pomegranate powder on a per gram basis.

Hearing about the study was welcomed news for chocolate lovers, and the search terms "chocolate more healthy than fruit" have surged in Yahoo! searches this week.

But be careful of completely substituting chocolate for fruit. After all, the study was conducted by Hersheys.
