PERIOD SURVIVAL: Craving chocolate? Go for it!

Ev

Great news, ladies -- chocolate is good for period cramps. That's right, we said it! Indulging in a little bit of dark chocolate (at least 65% cacao or higher) can actually help alleviate the pain from menstrual cramps. Why? Because chocolate is full of awesome things like magnesium, endorphins, and antioxidants.

But before you go overboard, remember that chocolate is still high in calories and fat so it's best to stick to a couple of small pieces at a time.
