Do you like chocolate? Do you like it very much? Does a piece of chocolate
satisfy you or isnt it just enough? Do you need a bar of chocolate when you feel
depressed? Just one? Be careful you may be addicted!
Chocolate contains small amounts of three drugs. When you get too much of
any of the three, your body becomes chemically dependent addicted on the
drug.
One of the drugs is caffeine, which is also in coffee and tea. Caffeine is a
stimulant, and can also interfere with the way you absorb vitamins. Another drug
in chocolate is also a mild stimulant. The third drug causes your brain to
produce a type of hormone that makes you feel happy. Thats why you like it so
much!
In Britain, the average person eats nine kilos of chocolate a year. Thats too
much! And too much of any drug is harmful. So next time you unwrap the third
or fourth chocolate bar of the day, watch out!
