How Chocolate Makes You Happy It’s no coincidence that people, especially women, naturally reach for chocolate when they are feeling blue. The hundreds of compounds that compose chocolate, have numerous effects on our nervous system, through the release of neurotransmitters, which can have great impacts upon our mood. Endorphins & Serotonin Eating chocolate increases the level of endorphins and serotonin that the brain releases. Endorphins are a happy neurotransmitter, which help to lessen pain and reduce stress levels, and serotonin is a known anti-depressant. Phenylethylamine Phenylethylamine is a unique neurotransmitter released by chocolate. It causes changes in blood-sugar levels and blood pressure, which leads to feelings of excitement and alertness. It is often referred to as the ‘love drug’, because it quickens pulse rate, resulting in a similar feeling to being in love. Picture: Sonlia Fashion Picture: Sonlia Fashion Anandamide Anandamide, a compound found in chocolate, causes the production of dopamine, which leads to feelings of well-being. Anandamide is a naturally occurring transmitter in the brain, but it tends to break down quickly. Chocolate, besides adding to the levels of anandamide, also contains two other compounds which work to slow the breakdown of anandamide, thus extending the feeling of happiness. Theobromine Theobromine, another compound in chocolate, acts as a stimulant similar to caffeine. It is also linked to having properties that cause mental and physical relaxation.   Chocolate, has a history of being known as aphrodisiac. It is easy to see why, when you combine it’s ability to quicken the heart rate, create feelings of euphoria, cause relaxation, and send pleasurable feelings through the brain. Not all chocolate, however, contains the same benefits. The higher the cocoa content in the chocolate, the better it is for you. For this reason, dark chocolate (and the higher the cocoa percentage) is best. Picture: Sonlia Fashion So when you're feeling a down, and need a little pick me up, reach for a piece of dark chocolate.
