Josh Axe, a certified doctor of natural medicine, doctor of chiropractic and clinical nutritionist, in his article “7 Awesome Health Benefits of Dark Chocolate” (2017), tends to use food as a form of medicine to our body. Since he is a nutritionist he finds ways and a passion for using food as medicine, instead of being prescribed one from a pharmacy or doctor.

He differentiates between the kinds and types of chocolate there are, clearly asserting that all other chocolates are a fail compared to the Dark chocolate. Something else he states is that consumption of cacao drinks has increased level of blood flow to the brain, nerve function, and oxygen levels to improve. His intended audience is also general for anyone, ranging from doctors to your next door neighbor, any one can get their hands and eyes on these
