I think it's so cool when we discover something simple and natural that really helps - it does seem rather obvious that chocolate (or rather, the REAL stuff cocoa) should have such a positive effect on mood. Then again, it is easy to get blinded by the bajillion new supplements/vitamins that promise this and that (not saying they don't help mind).
So I'm interested in vitamin C and cortisol - you recken 1g will lower cortisol albeit temporarily? I can only get the ascorbic pills here (gnc) so I alwyas worry about overdoing it and getting a P imbalance.
My sleep is crrrap right now and I keep getting ill with chest infections. I'm on zopiclone every night to sleep, plus 1000 supplements that SHOULD induce sleep, but never really do the job. At least now after a week the zopiclone isn't making me depressed in the day.
Ooops, hijack waffle - sorry! I'm off to find some cocoa.
