Eating sugar releases dopamine in a person’s brain, which signals the pleasure and reward centers in a similar way to drugs like heroin.

If you’re looking for some stimulation in your noggin’s pleasure and reward centers (and honestly, who isn’t?), Krispy Kreme has a new offer starting today: buy a coffee and get a free glazed doughnut. The deal is good through the end of the month.

D.C. has a Krispy Kreme shop in Dupont, and surrounding areas like Alexandria, Capitol Heights, and Rockville also have locations.

Let’s face it—we need all the dopamine we can get.
