Eating Chocolate Makes You Smarter

Chocolate is always be my favorite treat. Eating chocolate has been found to have a positive association with cognitive performance, according to a new study. And it makes you smarter. More frequent chocolate consumption was “significantly associated with better performance on [cognitive tests including] visual-spatial memory and organization, working memory, scanning and tracking, abstract reasoning, and the mini-mental state examination”.

Several studies have found chocolate to be one of the best cancer-fighting foods along with foods like red wine, blueberries, garlic, and tea. Chocolate works two ways as a cancer fighter; inhibiting cell division and reducing inflammation. 

Chocolate just got a little bit sweeter. :)

The Best Time Of Day To Exercise, Study, Eat, And Sleep

Scientists have long known that our bodies have internal clocks, which regulate the physical, mental and behavioral changes that we experience over a roughly 24-hour cycle.

We have our biological clock to help our bodies adapt to Earth's daily cycles. Scientist suggests that nearly every organ in our bodies follows this hidden, biological timekeeping. Our hearts, livers and digestive for example. They have their own internal schedules to help us perform at our very best.

Our bodies have an optimal time to sleep, but also to eat, think and exercise. And disrupting that natural timing could lead to certain health problems, such as obesity, diabetes, Alzheimer's and many more. 

It seems that we need regular sleeping and eating schedules to keep our organs synced to one big, biological clock
