The latest brain food: CHOCOLATE

Well see, I knew there had to be something good that came from somtheing as wonderful as chocolate.

Wow, this is excellent news! I gues I should start eating chocolate more!

I read about this very recently, and think it's great news that chocolate is actually good for us. If I'm not eating chocolate in it's regular form, I'm drinking it mixed into a cappuccino, or drizzled over ice cream.

thank you for the info now I can eat all the zero bars i want

*Jumps up and down repeatedly* I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!! I can eat chocolate now and rationalize that I NEED IT to ward off aging of my brain help my heart!!!! Oh thank goodness! See, I might end up as broad as my couch, but I'll be in my right mind and have a healthy heart...so what does it matter! I will sit there with my laptop, post discussions and replies to myLot, stuff hersheys'kisses in my mouth, and say, 'sigma77' told me it was good for me!' Ha!

Interesting news. It also seems that chocolate is good for depression. Unfortunately, I cannot eat much chocolate, actually I eat it on a very casual basis because of my teeth.

Wow..that's good news. I try not to eat a lot of chocolate..but every once in while..I do get a craving for it...I know that everything in small quantities is okay...so a little once in while I guess is good.

Wow thats great news I love chocolates and I am not dieting, but what about teeth what do the clinic experts say what happens to teeth if chocolates are eaten in surplus, is it good for cavities if that issue also becomes clear by the clinicians then I would be able to enjoy my chocolates more often.

i love chocolate lol, plan to have more of it. and i think that chocoalte helps me think

wow that is very good. i have been eating chocolates but ive never thought that it would be another food for the brain aside from peanuts.

Hadn't heard it this way but do remember seeing on disovery an article about chocolate being good for your heart. And they stressed that the low sugar version with all natural ingredients was the preferred choice to get true benefits.

Thanks for that info...I only eat lots of chocolates when I am sleepy at work.It helps me stay awake.

I think Chocolate is very nice.I love it very much forever,because my girlfriend loves it too.In my opinion,chocolate stands for love.Ilove my girlfriend.

This is a good information especially to the chocolate lovers. But on the other hand not a good idea to those people who suffer weight problems (obesity). I do believe that some people, if not many, do misunderstood the chocs study. They believe that it really helps them become smarter and intelligent. WHich of course a misconception--in short not true. I believe that even if you intake hundreds of grams of chocolates a day without doing any brain stimulating activity, chocolates is a No help at all. This reminds me of my sister when she doing her Board exam review in Nursing. She became mad about the chocolates. When i found out i told her to take it easy otherwise she will have weight problems,if not diabetis, later. Now,based on my own readings and study about chocolates, the sugar and caffeine content are just most likely to help you stay alert and hyper. Why? simply because these content will rapid the blood circulation of your entire body.Thus, as mention above, will increase the blood flow to the brain.The blood carries oxygen which is essential to the functions of our organs. More blood flows to the brain means more oxygen for the brain to function actively and properly. This response is not to argue or against the topic posted, its just simply related. The bottom line is simply to make the reader think twice before eating chocolates.

Well that is nice to know. I love chocolate. I will have to start eating more of it.

I have heard this too. But, we are not to depend on it solely. Besides, you know research, they are always changing this and that every few years. First it's good, then further tests say no. Buy the way, chocolate is deadly for cats and dogs. I'm glad we can have our full of it. Thanks for the great post. I am rating you a + for it as always. Have a great day sigma.

Nice, I guess I can eat more chocolate then, sadly it's still not good for you....

Well, I have always loved chocolate, so that is good to know. I know that there is a lot of research about chocolate, and that because it has endorphins, it is a "happy" food. And, there are other good characteristics that I have heard, but, being brain food, is a whole new concept...I am pleased, and glad that I can keep eating my chocolate...lol. Thanks for the good news.

ha!ha!ha now that explains why I was intellectual lol!! kidding. Eversince I first tasted chocholate I really feel inlove with in that's why I crave for chocholate no matter how I was trying to avoid it because I want to stay slim lol!! Thanks for sharing this very good news to all who loves chocolates since birth lol!!!
