\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNowadays chocolate has become an integral part of our everyday life, while a long and exciting history\nlies behind it. We present you a few facts about chocolate that justify its status as a divine food.

\nScientific studies have shown that dark chocolate is rich in antioxidants and nutrients, which makes this\nbitter-sweet treat a super food. It contains phytonutrients called flavonoids – plant chemicals that act\nlike antioxidants and have a role in preventing cancer, improving heart health and weight loss. High\nlevels of flavonoids, powerful antioxidants, help protect cells and tissues from damage caused by free\nradicals, unstable molecules that change cells and often stem from stress, poor nutrition and inevitable\naging.

\nResearches have proven that cocoa is full of numerous antioxidants, even significantly more than green\ntea or red wine! The darker the chocolate, the healthier it is, because the higher the proportion of\ncocoa, the more antioxidants chocolate contains, as well as numerous minerals such as potassium,\ncalcium, copper and magnesium.\nIn addition to antioxidants that play a role in fighting free radicals, cocoa contains a compound called\ntheobromine that helps reduce inflammatory processes and potentially might help lowering the blood\npressure.

\nAlso, we should not forget that chocolate makes us happier and in a better mood, and now we know the\nreason for that! Chocolate contains phenylethylamine, a chemical that is released in the brain during\nmoments of emotional euphoria. In addition, it contains anandamide, a fatty acid neurotransmitter that\nmakes you feel more relaxed and less anxious.

\nIn addition to all the benefits that dark chocolate has, it should be noted that it is rich in calories and\nsaturated fats, and it is necessary to consume it in moderation to feel the beneficial effects of this divine\nfood.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
