"I'm a self confessed chocoholic! I've found that eating good quality dark chocolate can give me that chocolate kick but with some added health benefits. 80 Noir is 79.3% cocoa so it has lower sugar but richer flavour than milk chocolate. Dark chocolate is full of flavonoids which help to promote a healthy CV system and boost endurance.
My favourite product is the hot chocolate beads. I use them every night before bed, made with milk. I find that this drink soothes and relaxes me before bed and helps to promote good sleep.
I also often eat a small handful during the day to boost energy levels and give me a good chocolate boost when I feel an afternoon lull."
