Chocolate is traced back to the Mayan people who were probably the first to cultivate the cacao plant. The early chocolate drink considered a "drink of the Gods" was mixed with cinnamon and pepper, tasting bitter and strong, and was most appreciated for its refreshing and stimulating effects than for its taste. The coffee was imported from the Americas, and a softened version soon spread in Europe. From the 1800s to the 20th Century, it evolved from a drink to its current pleasurable varieties such as milky and white chocolate, gaining much momentum in the industry and also made a significant impact as a romantic item and art form. The key components in chocolate are flavonoids (antioxidants), cocoa butter, caffeine, theobromine, and phenylethylamine, whereas the presence of psychoactive substances accounts for its pleasurable effects. Caffeine and theobromine constitute the methylxanthines, known to enhance the action of respondents. Chocolate is noted to have anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and cardioprotective effects, and improves the bioavailability of nitric oxide, which action improves the pressure, platelet function, and fluidity of blood. Chocolate has excellent benefits and results for the activation of the brain. It is highly recommended that people should make use of the product to ensure good health and a healthy lifestyle of living.
