Free Chocolate ??

Chocs away




Chocolate lovers could one day get the news they have always dreamed of after the NHS was urged to make it free.

Scientists have found that the luscious brown stuff can help reduce the effects of PMT and depression by keeping moods high.

And now confectioners have called on health secretary John Reid to give out free chocolate at GPs' surgeries and hospitals, the Sun reports

"It could be used as a substitute for drugs like Prozac," Chantal Coady, of Britain-based manufacturer Rococo Chocolates said.

Dark chocolate is seen as particularly beneficial, but chocolate of all varieties helps the body release endorphins that boost moods.

It also boasts high levels of magnesium, which helps to reduce the prevalence of mood swings.

Hope the wife reads this hehe
