Viagra may heat up a guy's sex drive, but chocolate can make it sizzle, according to a report this week from Nigeria's Federal Agency for Food and Medicine. The study advised Nigerians to forgo the libido-boosting blue pills in favour of a measured dose of cocoa. Viagra, the report stated, can have unwelcome side-effects, but chocolate is all good: It is the best anti-oxidant known and -- beyond its sexual virtues -- can help prevent heart attacks, hypertension and diabetes. The study was even more enthusiastic about cocoa's curative powers, claiming it can "get rid of chronic coughs and enhance brain power."
