Theobromine is a chemical found in chocolate...it's very similar to caffeine...theobromine is a drug...and is the reason why chocolate makes you feel good...it's toxic to dogs...but taken moderately for us it has some health benefits...if it's abused it will have negative effects on the body...as an addict I'm addicted to the theobromine in chocolate...I have no control over consumption once I start...i have to have complete abstinence from eating chocolate...i work my beautiful twelve step program on a daily basis...freeing myself from negative emotions...so I no longer need chocolate...or any other substances to make me feel good 😀🙏🏻❤️
