Love is in the air. Discover new tricks to look and perform your best this Valentine’s Day! In a Facebook poll, The Doctors asked women what they would prefer to receive this Valentine’s Day. Men: Pay attention to the results!

Flowers: 45 percent

Despite being just the second-most popular gift among The Doctors Facebook fans, more than 58 million pounds of chocolate candy are purchased during Valentine’s week.

“If you give chocolates as a gift, you obviously have to practice self-control,” Dr. Travis says. “One piece of chocolate [in Valentine’s Day gift boxes] can be about 80 calories.”

Dr. Travis explains how consuming Valentine’s Day chocolates can add up on the scale, and OB/GYN Dr. Lisa Masterson reveals which type of chocolate can actually be good for you.
