Now, a chocolate that battles the bulge!

London: Now this sounds too good to be true, a chocolate bar which help you lose weight and boosts your love life, has been devised.

The Sexy Bar is packed with cocoa solids and ground chilli. Both ingredients are said to act as an aphrodisiac and the chilli also boosts the metabolism, which helps burn fat. Top chef Paul Da Costa Greaves, of Exeter, Devon, spent almost two years creating the $ 3.99 bar.

"It’s a taste experience — just four pieces are enough to have an effect," Greaves said.

"The Incas enjoyed choc with chilli. It could be beneficial," diet expert Jacqui Lowdon was quoted by The Sun.
