Chocolate scent may enhance athletic performance

A recent study showed that inhaling the scent of chocolate can improve men's performance during exercise. Specifically, the ability to complete repetitions increased by up to 18 when inhaling the scent of dark chocolate, and by 9 repetitions with the scent of milk chocolate, all without feeling increased exertion. The results indicated that the scent influences appetite and feelings of fullness, and may enhance performance through its connection to memories and reward in the brain, while emphasizing that one should not rely solely on the scent instead of proper nutrition.
