Dark chocolate is delicious and comes with a load of natural health benefits—antioxidants, improved digestion, energy boost, stress reduction, and increased concentration. However, there’s also a dark side to dark chocolate. It is estimated that more than 1.8 million children in West Africa, where a majority of the world’s cocoa comes from, are exposed to some of the worst forms of child labor. This includes being forced to work long hours with little or no pay, with poor living conditions and very few rights.
