This week’s fun fact about memory should be especially exciting for all the chocolate lovers out there. Did you know that dark chocolate can help you study better?
The flavonoids found in dark chocolate with high-cocoa content have been shown to improve cognitive function, memory, and focus. An online article from Harvard states that “several studies demonstrated evidence of improved brain blood flow, oxygen levels, or nerve function” in those who consumed cocoa drinks.
While there is plenty of research to still be done, the current findings are encouraging. One or two squares of dark chocolate is a great option for good brain food.
So, if you have a big test coming up, might we suggest indulging in some delicious dark chocolate during your study sessions?
