sweet treats
Probably the most famous of all cravings "me included" is chocolate. Research suggests that there are chemicals present in chocolate that alters the chemicals in our brain to bring out feelings of pleasure. Often reported by women as pleasure over and above sex. Many researchers argue that women crave
chocolate prior to menstruation because it contains high levels of magnesium.
Women experience magnesium deficiency prior to menstruation. However, many
other non-craved foods also contain high levels of magnesium. Whilst others argue that women crave chocolate because it has turned into a nutritional taboo. It tastes wonderful and is sinful because it is loaded with fat and calories. Biscuits and other sweets fall into this category. Women crave it because we have told ourselves it is something that we can not have. We don't really care about the reasons at iPremenstral.com. Whatever the reason, chocolate tastes good for the chocolate lovers amongst us and remains to be 'the one' for our special time of the month. It's inexpensive accessible and pure pleasure. Apparently even the aroma of chocolate affects our brains chemistry. So, lets get chocolaty!
