A Cookbook by Terry Graedon and Kit Gruelle What experts have said about integrating chocolate into a healthy lifestyle: Susan Love, M.D. (surgeon, women's health expert and author of Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book): "What we really need to do is clean up our act -- exercise, healthy diet, don't smoke, alcohol in moderation and have fun.... I've decided that chocolate is a vegetable and I count it as one of my five fruits and vegetables a day." Dean Ornish, M.D. (physician, proponant of low-fat food against heart disease, and author of Love and Survival): "If you really focus on something, you don't need as much of it to get an even greater level of sensual pleasure. For example, I like eating chocolate and so what I do is find the richest chocolate I can find and just focus on it.... I can spend several minutes just enjoying a single piece of chocolate."
