It helps with boosting your serotonin, therefore making you a happier person ;)

Cocoa nibs are a great raw substitute for processed chocolates. When eaten with a sweet food, such as bananas, no sugar is needed!

Im a lover of dark chocolate as well as @themessup! Its definitely miles healthier than regular milk chocolate. Tastes at first with rather bitter for me but after a while I began to prefer it over the regular milk variant. Great post. I look forward to seeing more informative and short posts in future like this! Was a lovely quick read. Hope we can maintain contact in the future! Upvoted!

Dark chocolate partner with a chilled glass of Pinot Noir.. the flavor is unbeatable. Not sure of total health benefits:-)
