Does chocolate make you clever

I'm sure it does as long as you eat real chocolate and not just mountains of sugar!
amazing what you can prove with statistics and links

I like the section in that article that suggests it's actually meatballs that make you clever.
I ate meatballs last night and I am sharp as a tack today. So QED.
 
Was the study funded by Cadbury's....................... only kidding :lol:
 
Yes, because when ever you eat them, you know exactly how many you've eaten, so it involves simple math's.
 
I used to be able to eat chocolate until my 30s with seemingly no adverse effects. But I've never been a chocolate addict. Then it began to give me gastric problems so I cut down on chocolate in any shape or form. Since going low carb a few months ago, I'm actually not desiring it any more and have on several occasions balked at the sight and smell of it. I did continue to eat the odd mini Crunchie bar just to taste a wee bit of chocolate now and then, but I'm afraid it now repels me. It's as if I have a memory of it in my brain, but when I taste it - eeeeeeyuuuuuuuuuuk! I can't bear it.

Perhaps chocolate has made me clever enough to avoid eating it? :think:

Gimme the meatballs any day.
 
I find this rather odd as my daughter is a chocoholic, yet intelligent and quite clever.

All this time I thought she got it from me. Obviously not from my wife.

Hear comes Gracek to put me in my place.

Jokes aside, my son bakes vegan chocolate brownie's that are out of this world.

Roy,
 

:shock: Me? Put you in your place? :shock:
 
I LOVE chocolate but I have an IQ of 85 when the BBC did those IQ test programs!

You might need to buy a more intelligent brand of chocolate then. :think:

From chocoholic to recovering carboholic.

Brain was getting fuzzy, thought it was lack of chocolate but discovered it was the statin.

I really hated that brain fog and had it for years, and it was one of the first things to improve radically when I started low carbing. I've instinctively refused statins and you've just given me another good reason to keep refusing.
