Compared to participants who ate 1 oz of chocolate less often than monthly, those who ate it 1
e4 times/month, 2e6 times/week and 1 time/day had relative risks of being diagnosed with diabetes
that were lower by 13% (95% confidence interval: 2%, 25%), 34% (18%, 47%) and 18% (10%, 38%). These
relative risks applied to participants without evidence of preexisting serious chronic disease that
included diabetes, heart attacks, stroke or cancer. In conclusion, the risk of diabetes decreased as the
frequency of chocolate intake increased, up to 2e6 servings (1 oz) per week. Consuming 1 serving per
day did not yield significantly lower relative risk
