Chocolate Hi Cindy,
I have a relative who can consume chocolate by the pound! She's been going through some stress lately, and her eating habits have really weirded out.
I know that chocolate has caffeine in it, as does coffee and tea. Is that why a person would crave it so?
Thanks so much!
Catherine

Catherine,
This is an excellent question! Chocolate has caffeine that can make a person crave it, but more so, it has high levels of fats, carbohydrates, and protein that the body craves. This is even more of a craving problem for women then men due to our hormon make up. A woman tends to desire chocolate because it's a source of energy and for a woman that's stressed out, well... she needs all the energy she can get. However, there are healthier ways of doing it.
