"   Yesterday, we told you about an awesome new study that found popcorn is almost as good for you as a piece of fruit. And now researchers have even better news: Chocolate keeps you thin. Okay, sure\u2014eating a few chocolate bars a day won&amp;#039;t help you drop lbs, but scientists from the University of California at San Diego studied nearly 1,000 people and discovered that those who regularly eat the sweet stuff are slimmer than those who just nibble on it here and there.  Even though chocolate is high in fat, sugar, and calories, researchers discovered that it contains antioxidants and ingredients that can boost weight loss. Dark chocolate has been found to be better for your heart and protect your skin from sun damage, but this study found that eating milk, dark, or white chocolate all had the same slimming effect. Before you sprint to the vending machine, keep this in mind: Scientists say that the frequency of eating chocolate (not eating a lot of it at once) was what helped people stay trim.  Want to put it to work for you? Try noshing on a few Hershey Kisses a day or a few times a week. It&amp;#039;ll satisfy your chocolate cravings and give you your regular chocolate dose.
