Questa la lieta novella benevolmente annunciata da tutti i giornali poco prima di Pasqua. Scorpacciata di conigli, dunque? Niente affatto. Ad avere questa caratteristica sarebbe solo il ciocco- lato nero, grazie al suo elevato contenuto di cacao e quindi di sostanze pro- tettive per i vasi sanguigni, i cosiddetti flavonoidi. Si suppone che 100 grammi contengano la stessa quantità di flavonoidi di sei mele. Per fortuna mi piac- ciono più le mele che il cioccolato. Qualcuno ne ha comunque beneficiato: il mio coniglietto di Pasqua bianco, che quest’anno ha salvato la pelle. Sei mele: così facendo potrei facilmente seguire la regola di mangiare frutta e verdura cinque volte al giorno, un’operazione a dire il vero assai faticosa.
