Eating chocolate improves cognitive function

This is only a correlational study, but a previous paper using dark chocolate found improvements in cognition in a double blind controlled study.

People who ate chocolate at least once a week performed better on multiple cognitive tasks, compared to those who ate chocolate less frequently, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Maine, University of South Australia and Luxembourg Institute of Health

    So like trader Joe's or whole foods, got any recommendations? Brands? I'm guessing they're made with soy or almond milk. Almond milk is awesome but I hate soy milk.

Originally shared by Corina Marinescu The theory of multiple intelligences is a theory of intelligence that differentiates it into specific (primarily sensory) 'modalities', rather than seeing intelligence as dominated by a single general ability.
