If it is too sugary I can't have too many, it ruins the experience for me. But I have read several studies about sugar being more addictive than cocaine. Literally. It just switches on the brain part connected to reward. This explains why we can always have more sugar, even if we think that we can't. Scary . This is why I control my sugar intake because I am aware of the brain's weak spots🤣

Yeah sugar is definitely addictive. I try to avoid it entirely in the morning and day because it makes your blood sugar levels more volatile, a spike followed by a quick drop. It basically makes me hungry all day and want to snack when I have anything sweet in the morning.
I start the day with dark chocolate and tea later in the morning. The first thing I do when I wake up is drink lots of water. From a glass bottle. That's it, it makes my entire day lol. I drink lots of water throughout the day it is super important for me
Yeah water is really important.
Why the dark chocolate in the morning - just because it's delicious or is there a benefit that I'm not aware of?
It is full of antioxidants and magnesium and I consider it as a boost for my brain. I also have royal jelly ( bee's milk) from bees kept in a jar in a fridge and I take a little spoon on the empty stomach. It is rich in vitamins B and it gives you incredible amounts of energy. Since I have this routine I never got a cold and my energy and sleep got better. Combined with a good sleep routine and a healthy lifestyle...you become extra resilient. I highly recommend you to give it a try when you want to try something new in your morning routine
I see. Interesting. I'll keep that in mind. So you don't get a sugar high and then a crash afterwards and just want to snack all day?
Nope, I am good. I think that it depends on the person
Thats good then. Yeah probably depends on the person. Now that I think of it, I don't think there is much sugar in dark chocolate.
