Women have Better Sex with Chocolate
Italian researchers found that women who ate chocolate on a daily basis had higher libidos than those who didn’t. They also found that chocolate-fed women had better sexual arousal and more sexual satisfaction.
Their scientific conclusion: The craving of choice for many women has some real benefits for sex lives.
The head researcher of the Italian study even went so far as to compare it to a drug, rather than a food.
In fact, chocolate contains small quantities of phenylethylamine, or PEA. This substance releases dopamine in the brain’s pleasure-centers. Dopamine also, coincidentally, surges during orgasm.
So, chocolate works chemically to usher in feelings of euphoria, excitement and contentment.
