f you are a hot chocolate enthusiast, you know that drinking hot chocolate has been a tradition from the Mayan era. The Mayans were the first to discover that chocolate can be processed as a beverage. The drink was served cold, spicy and unsweetened until the Spanish discovered they could sweeten it to tone down the bitter, spicy taste. The French further discovered that the beverage could be used to treat ailments and maladies. In fact, it was promoted as a comfort food that can lighten up one’s mood. They encouraged serving the chocolate beverage sweetened and hot.
Fast forward to 2018, and we continue to reap the health benefits of a cup of hot chocolate in the morning.
>Improves you Mood
Hot chocolate helps to lift your mood. It contains serotonin that can boost the production of endorphins, hormones that make you happy.
>Boosts you immune system
It helps to boost your immune system. Hot chocolate contains an abundance of anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals that aid in boosting your immune system. A strong immune system is important to overall health and staying productive.
>Help to Fight Cancer
A Cornell study found that a cup of cocoa offers twice as many cancer-fighting antioxidants as a glass of red wine and as much as three times more than a cup of green tea. Researchers attribute this abundance to higher levels of flavonoids. Researchers also advise we drink a cup in the morning. Can you think of a better way to start the day?
