Beginning with the people of Meso-america, chocolate has had a reigning role in many cultural traditions. Whether it is used to symbolize wealth and importance or is given as an expression of love and admiration, chocolate has earned a status that many other types of food can never hope to reach. Chocolate is mood enhancing stuff, containing chemicals that have been scientifically proven to cheer you up, alleviate aches and pains, and even make you feel as though you're falling in love. Chocolate has been used for hundreds of years to cure many ailments, including headaches, stomach troubles and fatigue. Modern dark chocolate contains the same properties as the medicinal chocolate that physicians used in the past and therefore offers many of the same healing benefits. When consumed in moderate amounts, chocolate has several health benefits. The Aztecs thought that the cacao tree was sent from their god. They used it to cure ailments, improve overall health and as an aphrodisiac Chocolate contains chemicals that release endorphins that reduce pain and increase feelings of joy. Chocolate has nearly as many antioxidants as tea. Antioxidants prevent free radicals from damaging cells in the body. Chocolate acts as a mild amphetamine due to the small amount of caffeine that it contains, so it boosts energy and increases alertness. Despite its high fat content, consuming chocolate does not raise blood cholesterol levels. On average, a single American will consume more than 11 pounds of chocolate each year, while one person in Switzerland will consume over 22 pounds of chocolate. Chocolate may have properties that actually prevent tooth decay rather than causing it. Chocolate does not contribute to acne breakouts or migraines.
