Chocolate with high cocoa content has alot of antioxidant, but generally, it should be eaten in moderation.
Good for the heart while you eat it, bad for the heart after that.

I know so and now you can too!
"One of the most pleasant effects of eating chocolate is the "good feeling" that many people experience after indulging. Chocolate contains more than 300 known chemicals. Scientists have been working on isolating specific chemicals and chemical combinations which may explain some of the pleasurable effects of consuming chocolate.
Caffeine is the most well known of these chemical ingredients, and while it's present in chocolate, it can only be found in small quantities. Theobromine, a weak stimulant, is also present, in slightly higher amounts. The combination of these two chemicals (and possibly others) may provide the "lift" that chocolate eaters experience.
Phenylethylamine is also found in chocolate. It's related to amphetamines, which are strong stimulants. All of these stimulants increase the activity of neurotransmitters (brain chemicals) in parts of the brain that control our ability to pay attention and stay alert"

I heard chocolate is an aphrodisiac along with it gives you energy and it is a mood stimulator. Only if eaten in moderation. Too much of anything is bad, right?

Probably small amounts? But as far as I know, chocolate has "bad for health" written all over it. It contains a lot of sugar and fat/saturated fat. A lot of it is definitely bad for, and can cause many diseases, especially diabetes (if you really eat that much along with other sugary stuff).
