Food for thought:

Quote:
Chocolate lovers 'are more depressive', say experts

People who regularly eat chocolate are more depressive, experts have found.

Research in Archives of Internal Medicine shows those who eat at least a bar every week are more glum than those who only eat chocolate now and again.

Many believe chocolate has the power to lift mood, and the US team say this may be true, although scientific proof for this is lacking.

But they say they cannot rule out that chocolate may be a cause rather than the cure for being depressed.

In the study, which included nearly 1,000 adults, the more chocolate the men and women consumed the lower their mood.

I don't eat a lot of chocolate myself, think I'll keep it that way! Anyone here notice their mood changing after a choc-fest?

Hi,

They obviously have never worked in an office with women who frequently shout ‘I NEED CHOCOLATE’ who then feel better for a while after indulging but like all things that give you a kick :wink: they wear off and the feeling comes back again..

I like the Chilli chocolate made by Lindt (you can get it in Carrefour) and it’s my indulgence every now and then.

Keep the chocolate coming that’s what I say and if KRAFT ever change the CADBURY's recipe It’s an all out war.

It certainly can.

Sylvi gets depressed when she can't get her hands on a bar!

Having not had chocolate for a whole 13 weeks :banghead I have not noticed any change in my mood for not having any. Miss it like mad and still desire the taste especially when I am in the supermarket but happy that the lard is coming off.

Of course it can look how happy people were in WWII when you couldn't get it (chocolate I mean).
