Chocolate 'aids fatigue syndrome'
A daily dose of dark chocolate may help reduce the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome, say UK researchers.
Patients in a pilot study found they had less fatigue when eating dark chocolate with a high cocoa content than with white chocolate dyed brown. The researchers from Hull York Medical School said the results were surprising but dark chocolate may be having an effect on the brain chemical serotonin.

Theobromine Chemistry - Chocolate
Interesting stuff. Theophyllin, aminophylline (methylxanthines in general) are meds used for severe persistent asthma (the worst possible asthma one may have). Nature is really amazing. |
