It's true that only dark chocolate has the antioxidant benefits and all dark chocolate has some. However, if you want to get really specific about brands and everything, I read an article on Prevention magazine a while ago that said that Dove Dark chocolate is the brand that's used in all of the medical trials about chocolate and antioxidant benefits since it contains the highest levels of isoflavonols (antioxidants) of any brand. They taste great too but as with all chocolate, use in moderation or they can make you fat...

Hershey's is mostly wax with a little cocoa powder in it and alot of sugar. Antioxidants would be miniscule. The dark chocolate that does contain antioxidants would be a high quality baking chocolate.

If your looking for DARK chocolate that has LOTS of anti oxidents, try Lendt, They sell it at walmart and Meijer and places like that, its better for you. Hersheys still adds too much sugar for it to be beneficial. Good luck

Only Dark Chocolate contains anti-oxidents. If it has milk in it, it doesn't have the same effect. It doen't matter the brand.

I have read that eating (in moderation) dark chocolate can improve your skin's elasticity. It can also decrease your chances of getting skin cancer. I wouldn't eat Hershey's, however. Lindt is good. Look for European chocolates...I have read that they use higher quality chocolate.
