Belgian chocolate boosts your mood
Feeling the winter blues? No panic, it’s natural and it can be chased away. Belgian chocolate, rich in cocoa, contains magnesium and theobromine. What does magnesium do? It relaxes our muscles and soothes nervous fatigue. What about theobromine? It promotes a sense of well-being. By working with chocolate without palm oil, using only cocoa butter, Leonidas offers you the best chocolate. So, when you want to lift your spirits, bite into a Leonidas praline without hesitation!
Double dose of happiness
The pleasure we feel when biting into good Belgian chocolate is enough to stimulate the production of serotonin and endorphins – the happiness hormones. In other words: a praline, a chocolate spread, a bowl of hot chocolate, or a delicious chocolate treat can really contribute to our well-being

Did you know? Originally, chocolate was consumed as a hot drink by the tribes of Mexico and Central America. This bitter and spicy beverage was considered sacred and even had therapeutic virtues.

Why does hot chocolate have such an effect on us? First, there's the regressive pleasure that takes us back to childhood. And it also has a real benefit on the body, as a hot drink is incomparable for quickly warming up when it's cold outside.
