A study found that people who rated themselves highly stressed to begin with, had lower levels of stress hormones after eating chocolate every day for two weeks.

The study’s subjects ate 1.4 ounces (40 g) of dark chocolate daily, or a little less than a regular-sized Hershey’s bar, which contains 1.55 ounces (44 g).

O.K., so the study was of just 30 people and performed by Nestle Research Center based in Switzerland, but I’m gonna believe.
