Whether Dark, White, mixed with milk, Bittersweet or Unsweetened, chocolate has the same happy pill effect on us, it's been long known that a box of chocolate cures broken hearts and put a smile on everyone's face, some scientists say Eating chocolate makes you happy because it contains phenylephylamine, the same hormone the brain triggers when you fall in love, others may add that's it benefits your heart, lower your blood pressure and improve your memory.
