I'd be suspicious of health claims promoted by the cocoa foundation.  Cigarette companies used to have ads on TV with doctors saying that their products were good for you.

You know, the added fat, not the natural fat, which is not that bad for you. A
chocolate mousse cake has a lot more fat then the cocoa butter.

The natural fat in chocolate may lower cholesterol levels. Studies are being
done on this. They have found that it does not raise them. The World Cocoa
Foundation has health research on their website:

PS- milk chocolate is actually very good health food for women, but 
make sure it
is made with cocoa not chocolate syrup.
