Drink Up

“That cocoa you sip not only warms you up–it may help protect your skin against the sun’s ultraviolet rays. According to a study in The Journal of Nutricion, women who drank a cup a day for three months didn’t get sunburned as quickly and noticed that thier skin felt smoother and more hydrated. The German researchers attributed the protective effect to cocoa’s antioxidants. Of course, you still need SPF, but what a delicious excuse to drink up!” article from ShapeUp magazine
