A sweet addiction

An addiction to chocolate is one of the best types of dependencies to have. Not at all life threatening it is safe to be addicted to this product. However, one minute on the lips and a lifetime on the hips, chocolate addiction does have its disadvantages. Loved for its creamy delicious smooth texture, a piece of chocolate melting in your mouth is very desirable.
There are different types of chocolate that people form addictions to starting with dark chocolate all rich and bold to white chocolate that is so creamy and irresistible. Milk chocolate is also a favourite because it is the most accessible of the types and it has the highest number of addicts. A chocolate addiction is caused because chocolate is such an aphrodisiac. It has the power of putting you on a high and because of the serotonin it contains released in your blood every time you eat it, you feel happy and in love. Besides the terrible disadvantage of weight gain that a chocolate addiction brings there are other negatives. Many people suffer from acne as a result of eating too much chocolate. Chocolate also has many advantages such as reducing oxidation in the body and preventing heart attacks.
To keep up with a delicious chocolate addiction, you can get your fix from hot chocolate, chocolate cake or even cocoa powder products. Luckily, chocolate is available in any store in any city and unlike other addictions you can openly buy it and enjoy it at anytime.
