One of my fibromyalgia main symptoms is chronic fatigue. At it’s best, my entire body feels heavy and aches. At it’s worst, I feel like I’m trying to run through quicksand which is up to my eyebrows . . . even when I’m sitting down. I sleep 8 – 10 hours every night and wake up every morning feeling exhausted and achy. Not a very pretty picture . . . However, I’m one of the lucky ones who is able to function and not incapacitated.
Because of the chronic fatigue I’m always on the alert for things that may help . . . and here’s my favorite . . .
Scientists recommend eating chocolate for tired people.
Few know that the feeling of chronic fatigue is the fact that the body makes negligibly small amount of the hormone serotonin, responsible for feelings of joy and happiness.
American scientists conducted a study and found out which product can best produce serotonin and help to cope with chronic fatigue:
Everyone knows that chocolate improves mood, because it improves the production of serotonin.
It turns out, “. . . it is bitter chocolate – just 50 grams of this delicacy, is capable of preventing physical and emotional exhaustion, and to help cope with fatigue.”
To establish the production of serotonin in your body, people need to eat every day half tiles of dark chocolate for two months.
YA HOOOOOOOOOooooooo

I have found dark chocolate covered almonds – the best of two tasty worlds. Not sure this is what American scientists meant, but I like my solution.

Pretty sure I’ve filed my quota of dark chocolate for 2018 (and perhaps 2019) so should be feeling GREAT for quite a while!

I hope you are feeling great, but don’t stop eating chocolate, just in case.

I had faith in you would eventually find the fix for your condition that will help with all conditions.
I have found a new addiction, in addition to the Brookside Dark Chocolate Covered Acacia Blueberries, at Costco. It is Brookside Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds Dusted with Raspberry. Have a handful each evening & makes Me a happy ‘chubby’ gal.
