Benefit of Chocolate
We all love eating chocolate even baby and kids.So there are always have some benefit and side effects.So lets talk about eating chocolate. Here are some main reasons>>
HAPPIER KIDS
No wonder chocolate is linked with Valentine's. Italian scientists found that women who had a daily chocolate treat reported higher sexual desire than those who did without. Chocolate contains phenylethylamine (PEA), which triggers the release of feel-good dopamine in the brain and is released naturally during sex. For the biggest dose of PEA choose chocolate with at least 60 percent cocoa.
ENERGIZING THE GROWING BODY
Cocoa is nature’s own energy-booster. Theobromine and caffeine found in chocolate, are both psychoactive chemical stimulants that improve the speed of neurotransmitters. This affects the way messages are being sent from the brain to our body, helping with the overall cognitive development, especially in kids. Taking a single quality chocolate cube in the morning, on its own or with fruit, can give us enough energy to make it through to lunch, without the need for sugar, or a substantial breakfast.
SIDE EFFECTS OF CHOCOLATE
Cocoa contains caffeine and related chemicals. Eating large amounts might cause caffeine-related side effects such as nervousness, increased urination, sleeplessness, and a fast heartbeat. Cocoa can cause allergic skin reactions, constipation, and might trigger migraine headaches.
