love & neurons: more on chocolate

let me briefly interrupt the coffee story to bring you a nice plain english discussion of how chocolate affects our neurons in its very good way.

we owe all the emotional benefits of chocolate to the action of a cute little phytochemical called phenylethylamine or p.e.a. for short. as the article states: "being in love is usually great for your health. while we're searching for that special partner, we eat chocolate."

but what about those of us who have found our special partner? i gotta tell ya, mr. right is wonderful, but i still adore my chocolate. . .
