Why is chocolate addictive?

Chocolate has endorphins in it which is a chemical your brain creates naturally when doing things that make you happy: being in love, petting a puppy, sex, exercise (although I don't buy the exercise ...)

Who says that it is addictive, if you think so that is quite personal statement. this is our personality that forces us to follow or worship the things. Even the wine is not an addictive drink for me. so this is up to you that how you take things. Yes i take chocolate too but a little enjoy. It is said that take less even poison, that will not harm you at all.

Addictive isn't the right time period as you gained't get physiologically depending on it (which ability you gained't have withdrawal indications in case you end). although chocolate (as many different ingredients) will be habituating because when we eat it, endorphins are released in the mind. Endorphins are type of "sense reliable" chemical compounds produced by ability of the mind (the mind's personal morphine). The body for sure likes this and in turn craves better of it. yet in case you end the habit, you gained't get unwell. you'll merely sense that "desire" for it. that's the reason human beings have a not straight forward time sticking to diets. Their will power to stay far off from the reliable feeling isn't reliable sufficient. at the same time as chocolate contains caffeine and caffeine is addictive, someone isn't hooked on chocolate yet to the caffeine which will be gained in a lot of different strategies (the form of espresso duh, or some teas). in case you'e no longer a espresso drinker, it would take tremendous quantities of chocolate to make you hooked on the caffeine contained in it; as chocolate contains minimum quantities of caffeine.

Well probably because the chemicals in chocolate spark the endorphins. It's an alkyloid.

This is because of its sweet taste and fatty texture.........It also relieves boredom and is a comfort food.
