Use of dark chocolate

A cup of good coffee goes well with one or two pieces of dark chocolate. This leads to a greater secretion of bile needed to burn fats. Dark chocolate can be eaten alone or grated, e.g. on a sieve, and added to oatmeal or yoghurt. You can also melt it and treat it as a topping for ice cream or their ingredient, or add to cookies, muffins.

Do not eat more than 3-4 cubes of dark chocolate a day because too much consumption can result in headaches, constipation. It should not be consumed by those who are allergic to cocoa, cocoa liquor, struggling with serious diseases of the kidneys and bladder, with a sensitive digestive system. It is also not recommended to give children dark chocolate so that they do not get too excited.
