Desperate for Chocolate?


Random fact that blew my mind -  "We studied the food choices of women with severe PMS who stayed in the MIT Clinical Research Center at the beginning and end of their menstrual cycle. These normal weight women increased their calorie intake by more than 1,100 calories daily when they were premenstrual -- and the calories came entirely from carbohydrates"

This article confused me based on my knowledge of what we need to eat and some knowledge in how the body processes food.  I am going to ask my friend who is studying nutritional science what she thinks.  The article gets torn apart in the comment section as well.  Typical of the Huffington Post.


Either way, no thank you serotonin.
