Chocolate in moderation is actually good for you. It contains endorphins that have been proved to help improve mood. It also is an antioxidant. The best kind of chocolate for you is the dark chocolate so keep that in mind as well.
You are not eating it in moderation though. The amount you are consuming would be considered detrimental to your health because of the amount of calories, sugar and carbs you are consuming. If you eat too much chocolate and other "comfort" foods you are setting yourself up for potential health conditions like obesity, high blood pressure and diabetes.
Try to remember to keep it in moderation and not to have too much of a good thing...

Eating too much of anything is bad for you. Eating 5 or 6 bars a day is not good. Read the packet on the bar, chocolate has a lot of calories in it. 5 or 6 bars a day nearly fills up your daily allowance, which means you are almost certainly overeating, and should be overweight.
Also most chocolate has a lot of sugar and will rot your teeth. 5 or 6 a day is too much.

I don't think it is, but like everything else in moderation. Nothing wrong with enjoying something you like, but too much and you'll put on weight. I think 5 or 6 bars is a bit much! Dark chocolate's better for you, it's pure and has a lot less sugar, is a good source of antioxidants and in my opinion tastes much nicer. The best chocolates are Green and Blacks, any rainforest chocolate, and Swiss or Italian chocolate. If you like milk chocolate, again continental chocolate's the best. I'd stay away from stuff like Cadbury's dairy milk, Mars bars and all that stuff - it's rubbish!

If you eat more than 2 servings of it a day, then yes.
But, on the other hand, chocolate is a great source of energy, but there are many consequences when this comes to mind.
If you go out and exercise right after you eat the chocolate bar, the energy and sugar protein in the chocolate is used for good, but it still goes to the heart.
This could lead to artherosclerosis or even hypertension disease.

Its the fat in chocolate that is bad for. Cocoa powder is the 'flour' from the cocoa bean. It is very bitter but when mix with fat and sugar is becomes delicious.
Buy dark chocolate with at least 60% cocoa and eat small amounts. It has a deeper chocolate taste so maybe it will satisfy your chocolate cravings.

As my Grandad always used to say, "there's nothing wrong with a little bit of what you fancy". The emphasis has to be on "little bit". Even the healthiest foods are bad for you in such vast quantities. Chocolate won't hurt if you have it as a little treat now and then. However, if you carry on eating the amount you are you run the serious risk of obesity, heart disease, rotten teeth, and diabetes...

Depends on the size of the bar. Too much of anything is bad for you. Is it chocolate on its own or filled chocolate? If its just chocolate(milk or plain) it shouldn't be too but I'd cut down on the quantity to be safer. If it's filled, then some of those filling could be loaded with sugar, definitely not good, one every couple of days would be safer. You don't want to pile on those pounds.

A small bit of dark chocolate is very healthy for you. However, 5-6 bars is over the top and is not good for your body.

Yes. Chocolate is bad for you. Chocolate contains a toxin called theobromine, the excessive consumption of which can lead to epileptic seizures, internal bleeding, heart attacks and even death.

Not in moderation but i think 5-6 bars a day might be a tad excessive.
