Chocolate is a favorite food for people all over the world. People prefer chocolate over ice cream, cakes and cookies.
The idea of eating chocolate didn’t begin until the 19th century. Before that people drank chocolate. The habit began in Central America where the Aztecs drank bowls of chocolate to stay watchful. When the liquid chocolate was brought to Spain in the 1500s, people thought it was medicine because it had a medicine taste. In fact, the people who made chocolate into drinks were doctors. Then people discovered that mixing chocolate with sugar made a wonderful drink King Ferdinand of Spain loved this drink so much that he put out an order: anyone who talked about chocolate outside the court would be killed For about 100 years, “chocolate” was a secret In Spain.
People finally found out about chocolate, and it became a popular drink in Europe. The Swiss mixed milk and chocolate Today most Americans prefer milk chocolate, while Europeans prefer dark chocolate.
New research shows that chocolate is actually good for us. “Chocolate has more than 300 different chemicals. One chemical works on the parts of the brain that feels pleasure. People who feel good when they eat chocolate are actually healthier. Feeling pleasure is important for health and can protect against illness.” “Good chocolate doesn’t have much fat or sugar. You can enjoy it if you eat a little at a time says Tara Berish, another chocolate lover.

WHAT time of day do you feel most clear-headed? Are you more of a morning person? Or does it take you a few hours to get your brain going? A lot of recent studies show that we should pay attention to our body clock. It can tell us at what time of day we are a1.to perform best, says the report.
When it comes to the human brain (大脑), many people work best later in the morning. This is because the body’s temperature takes time to rise through the day. Taking a warm shower when you w2.up can help speed this up.
But everyone’s body clock is different and some have special patterns (模式). Morning people will get up early and work better early in the day. E3.people will get up later but their brain work better towards the end of the day.
Studies show that we are better at some activities at certain times of the day. Physical performance is at its best b4.3 p.m. and 6 p.m, so it’s better to exercise later in the day.
F5., it is best to eat during our active periods. This allows our body to burn calories better and stop our blood sugar levels (血糖水平) from getting too high.
