Study investigated: What excites us more, chocolate or a kiss

Heart rate is picking up speed, passion burning your bones and you feel exited at a very high level ever. Sexy kiss with a partner? Forget it, probably you ate chocolate again

You may be convinced that there is nothing like a romantic wet kiss and to stimulate the heart and revive the passion. But new research shows that when chocolate melts in our mouth it evokes in us the urge to have sex.


The researchers, led by Dr. David Lewis from MIND Lab in the UK, studied couples in their twenties. Subjects were connected to the monitoring of the heart and brain, while eating chocolate containing 60% cocoa, and also when they kissed.

Satisfactory substitute for a kiss?

The researchers attached electrodes to the heads of volunteers, and a heart rate test instrument, and compared the heart rate of examinees while eating dark chocolate, while a kiss and at rest.

The study found that chocolate actually caused the strongest reaction, as more than a kiss, and doubled the heart rate of the subjects. Although the kiss accelerated heartbeat, the effect did not last long as after eating chocolate, which led to accelerated heart rate from 60 beats per minute to 140.

The research further revealed that when the chocolate began to melt in the mouth, brain activity was more powerful than when Occurred during the kiss. The researchers noted that all responses were similar in men and in women.


So why is that? How is it that chocolate excites the senses and floods the emotions more than a kiss with a partner? Chocolate contains Fniltilamin, that increases the levels of endorphins, Which stimulate the sense of pleasure in the brain.That's In addition to high caffeine content which has stimulating influence on both, the brain and the heart. According to Dr. Lewis, chocolate ingredients known to have psychoactive effects, but The feeling of chocolate melting on the tongue intensifies its impact
