Chocolate and health benifits

Research shows that over 70% of us treat ourselves to chocolate at least once a week.

Good quality dark, raw chocolate  (at least 70% cocoa) has impressive health benefits:

·         Boosts energy levels

·         Improves blood flow which is great for your cardiovascular health

·         Releases endorphins which helps with pain relief

·         Relaxes muscles due to the magnesium content

·         Tryptophan (the precursor of serotonin) boosts happiness

·         May improve cognitive performance

·         Anti-oxidants work to fight cellular and oxidative damage resulting in clearer, firmer skin
