Special chocolate promises to cure period cramps

Now you can kiss menstrual cramps a sweet goodbye by nibbling some good old chocolate. A Swiss-based company, Chocolate With Love, claims to have come up with a chocolate bar that will help alleviate the suffering of women when they are on their periods.

The chocolate – called ‘Frauenmond’ – means ‘women’s moon’ in English. It is made from 60 percent cocoa and also contains 17 different kinds of herbs. The sweet combines the pain-fighting herbs with the chemicals serotonin and theobromine (found in cocoa) to reportedly provide comfort to suffering women.

This unique chocolate is still being crowd-funded to complete its goal to hit market shelves in Asia by next year, according to 20 Minuten.
