Three Reasons to Make Godiva Chocolate Part of Your Daily Diet

And why running London marathon felt so great

I am not a dessert person, but I love dark chocolate.

As a marathon runner, I have three good reasons to indulge in Godiva chocolate, as highlighted by Medical News Today.

1. Dark chocolate reduces the risk of heart disease.
2. One of the flavanols in cocoa beans is epicatechin, which increases the production of nitric oxide, and thus helps marathon runners run longer and with less discomfort. I can still see myself pumping my fist in the air during London Marathon and shouting with elation: “I love you, London.” The spectators went wild and carried me like a wave to the finish line.
3. It also boosts cognitive function.

Do you want to exercise longer, have a healthier heart, and be smarter?
