    A couple of months ago I quit all added sugars and most processed foods, and when your body regulates (insulin levels, leptin, taste, etc) you begin to be less hungry and appreciate the flavors of real food. Even 99% dark chocolate, something that I found quite terrible, began to taste good.
    So my recommendation is to eat real food, you'll lose weight, appreciate flavors and improve your health.

    Well this explains a lot. I started going on a no-sugar-added diet a year and a half ago, and one food that I started eating excessively was this banana pudding I would make by mashing bananas and mixing it with unsweetened cocoa powder and peanut butter. As my tastes shifted and I came to enjoy bitter flavors a lot more, I would put more and more cocoa powder into the pudding. I never don't feel awesome after eating it... and now I know why.

    Note to self:
    • Chocolate contains these compounds:
    - Caffeine ☕
    - (Theobroma 🌴 ->) Theobrom-ine
    - Phenyl-ethyl-amine
    - (Ananda 😄 ->) Anand-amide
    • Caffeine and Theobromine are very similar in structure and block adenosine receptors.
    - Adenosine causes neurons to fire at a slower speed -> tired
    - If blocked prevents from becoming tired
    - Theobromine, the main stimulant, makes chocolate toxic to dogs due high concentration
    • Phenyl-ethyl-amine is similar to a-m-ph-et-amine which in turn is similar to meth-amphetamine ("meth")
    - Meth is a stimulant, which due similar structure makes the 2 previous ones also stimulants. (Not as strong tho)
    -> Release Dopamine and Nor-epinephrine.
    - Dopamine -> happy
    - Norepinephrine -> jittery & aware (increased heartrate and bloodsugar levels)
    • Anandamine (cannabinoid)
    - Binds to same receptors as THC (Tetra-hydro-cannabinol)
    -> Feeling high
    - Effect is short lived due our body having an enzyme for anandamine
    • The more concentrated the chocolate the more potent the chocolate is in these compounds.
    - White choclate isn't really a chocolate
    - Milk choclate is only around 12% choc.
    - Dark chocolate is great
    - Baking chocolate is most you can get

    Cacao is great when paired with ginger, as theobromine is a cerebral (brain) vasodilator (opens up blood vessels for better blood flow) and ginger is an antioxidant, so I pair them together in a fruit smoothie first thing every day and I can think noticeably better soon after drinking it. It immediately clears up any brain fog I have (from inflammation) or any residual sleepyness from just waking up. Two amazing plants.

    Cadbury dairy milk chocolate apparently has 26% chocolate in it which is probably why it’s the only chocolate I enjoy on its own (I’ll eat a Kit Kat for example but wouldn’t eat Kit Kat’s pure chocolate slab if they had one. I’ve also tried Hershey’s and it was so weird and not chocolatey at all.) I live in South Africa and I know there are differences around the world with chocolate brands, so my experience with different chocolates could be different to someone else.. but I feel that Cadbury and Nutella are the only chocolates that do it for me. Other than that I use Dutch process cocoa powder in desserts or hot cocoa. Chocolate covered strawberries are unequivocally superior to chocolate covered pretzels. And Lindt sucks ass. - weird aftertaste. I chose violence today.

    This video is fun but the thing is phenethylamine is usually broken down too fast before feeling it by a monoamine oxidiaser, however chocolate has MAOI's wich you should have mentioned.
    The best way to experience the chocolate effects are not eating, it's drinking,
    i mix 3 tbsp cacao powder in hot water, drink on empty stomach when waking up, then 30 minutes later i take 2000 mg L tyrosine, a dopamine an adrenaline precursor, and i take 200 mg caffeine pill. 20 minutes later im stimmed.
    It gives insane productivity enhancement and music sounds better, and feels exactly the same as 25 mg amphetamine, i actually call this combination ''legal amphetamine''. It's the same feeling, the MAOI's in the cacao powder make the L tyrosone stronger since the dopamine and other monoamines aren't broken down as fast without the chocolate.
    It's not really euphoric, it's just good for productivity and helps with focus . It helps REALLY well. As much as amphetamine however tolerance to L tyrosine builds fast so i do this only once a week

      You're right, 2000mg of L-tyrosine is waaay too much. The author whether meant 200mg of L-tyrosine or used pure tyrosine. Or maybe just has such a strong tolerance. Please, anyone who wants to try that on their own, check the dosage first and adjust to your own body. Everyone is different and needs another dose.

    Just wondering, yes, it may take 75000mg of theobromide to kill a 75kg man, but with there being a good chunk of caffeine in the chocolate (something like 200mg per 100g) surely the caffeine would kill you first? Considering the FDA recommends not going over 400mg and that multiple people have died surpassing or even reaching 400mg of caffeine

    I’ve been really curious about trying brewed cacao as a replacement to coffee. I love coffee, but tolerate caffeine poorly. Cacao has a similar taste to coffee, but less caffeine and a milder stimulant theobromine. I can’t help but wonder how it would be!

      Hot chocolate recipe: 1 cup of milk,1 tablespoon of heavy cream, splash of vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon of dark chocolate cocoa, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Instructions: mix wet ingredient in a pot, then add dry ingredients, warm it up and stir until mixed.

      I always did baking cocoa or raw cacao powder in large amounts, milk, honey, cinnamon, vanilla extract and cane sugar.
      I leave it pretty bitter and the honey thickens the whole thing up.
      I've also made real hot chocolate (not from powdered cocoa) with home made chocolate that was sent to me from the Philippines and nothing compares.

    I used to literally be addicted to chocolate, I don't mean to sound like an advert but calorie counter apps helped me a lot, they slapped me in the face cause I got up to 21st 6lbs (around 300lbs) and was eating 4000kcal a day, seeing the numbers just helped me a lot, I'm 18st now (250lbs) and I'm eating 1500kcal in a day, the trick is to swap and moderate, so instead of a lot of milk chocolate, eat a portion or two of dark chocolate

Firstly, i think it;s cause i replaced my coffee with cacao, so i am not that stimulated and irretable. A question - does fat content of cacao powder matter? i found 10% 15% and 20% cacao powders, i like fatter version the most, they look darker, the y taste more saturated, but i couldnt find much info about it. Thanks!

    cacao nibs are so delicious, i don't find them so bitter and they have a very fruity taste along with the chocolate taste, i have tasted some raw vegan chocolates that have retained that delicious fruity flavour of the cacao nibs and it makes the chocolate so much more enjoyable. I also think it depends on the manufacturer because once i had the 92% Vivani chocolate and it was not bitter and was sweetened with coconut nectar but then i tried a 55% chocolate and it was extremely bitter

It did not feel good leading up to throwing up, but thankfully vomiting releases endorphins which made me feel better afterward.
