Chocoholic

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A Chocoholic is some who is or claims to be addicted to chocolate. Many people do not think this is possible, but as chocolate releases endorphins, it is possible for the brain to become accustomed to regular intervals of chocolate. They tend to be females, but there are many male chocoholics around.

Chocoholics are also advocates for educating the uneducated people about the many health benefits of chocolate, in particular, dark chocolate.

[edit] Pleasure of consuming

Part of the pleasure of eating chocolate is due to the fact that its melting point is slightly below human body temperature: it melts in the mouth. Chocolate intake has been linked with release of serotonin in the brain, which is thought to produce feelings of pleasure.
