I'm curious what is it about chocolate that helps the anxiety. I only know it to be a stimulant, or its extracts to increase brain bloodflow).

- filterfiber 3y agoI'm curious too. I know cocoa contains a lot of Theobromine which is very similar to caffeine (caffeine is Methyl-theobromine) although it does behave a little different. Cocoa also has a little caffeine as well. I would think these two would make anxiety worse? GABA and L-theanine make a lot of sense as these will directly impact the glutamatergic system and are well known to improve anxiety (and are also synergistic with stimulants especially caffeine).
