One more reason to be grateful for chocolate! It doesn't just taste amazing...in moderation, some types of chocolate are good for your brain! (Read to the end to find out which ones.) The cocoa in chocolate contains a long, fancy word, phenylethylamine, which releases endorphins. This plays a role in mood regulation. Chocolate can fight inflammation, too! Ideally consume dark chocolate with 70 percent cocoa and higher. Enjoy in moderation and read the serving size.
