Here is a great little poem I found from the December 2001 copy of Stitches magazine.
Too bad this neurologist forgot how chocolate is a common migraine trigger...

A neurologist's ode to chocolate
by Dr. Meredith Golomb, from Stitches (December 2001)

I like chocolate, milk, and dark,
As cookies, brownies, cakes, and bark,
And I've searched Medline just to find
How chocolate helps the heart and mind.
Its flavenoids, high concentration,
May prevent bad oxidation.
And some polyphenols act
To inflammation counteract --
They may some active platelets soothe
To make disordered blood run smooth.
Thus, some say (And do not joke)
That chocolate may prevent a stroke.
Do not forget -- relief from stress
A dose of chocolate may address:
A phenyethylamine high
Will make your flagging spirits fly.
Caffeine with theobromine may
Brighten up a dark, sad day.
Should I question funding now
Of this research? I see how
The grantors -- Hershey, Nestle, Mars --
All produce nice chocolate bars.
Will chocolate truly fine health bring?
Who cares? It makes my neurons sing!
