It’s a known fact that red wine aids in reducing inflammation. But for those of you who haven’t yet aquired a taste for the fermented beverage - chocolate milk does the trick too!

A new study suggests that regularly consuming skim milk (complete with cocoa) can reduce inflammation, which can potentially slow or prevent the effects of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the arteries.

I drink a half-gallon of organic chocolate milk every week. Nothing new in this study for me!
