06 Oct Did you know that chocolate is very good for you

That chocolate is a beloved treat worldwide, everyone knows that. But what you especially WANT to know is that chocolate can also be good for you. After all, chocolate has some really good properties. For instance, chocolate contains antioxidants, which your skin likes. They protect you from UV radiation and thus also from wrinkles.

Chocolate also contains a number of other very good substances. Substances like serotonin and endorphins, which make you feel happy. Endorphins also have an anti-pain effect and inhibit adrenaline. So you experience less stress.

Several studies have also shown that chocolate is also said to be good against cardiovascular diseases. It lowers your blood pressure because of flavonoids, substances found in cocoa, which help your blood vessels relax and allow blood to flow better. So less chance of having a heart attack or other heart ailments.

Of course, we don’t want any extra kilos on our conscience. Everything in moderation, so unfortunately that includes chocolate. But a chocolate-making workshop or a chocolate tasting should be possible!
