Dark chocolate (80 to 85% organic) increases blood supply and oxygen to al tissues in the body. This, of course, also means the brain, heart, liver, kidneys, and other body organs. This may be called choc-epi-nitro story. Here is how the story goes:

• Dark chocolate contains a substance called epicatechin.
• Epicatechin increases the release of nitric oxide (nitro) from endo cells lining blood vessels everywhere in the body.
• Nitro opens arteries to allow more blood to flow into the tissues.
• More blood means more oxygen and less acids.
• More oxygen and less acids means health.
