Re: Chocolate Bar.........

[Guest guest]

I believe it. I have found that eating chocolate actually calms bad

RLS. Sugar helps too. I know that this is contrary to popular

anti-sugar/anti-chocolate dictums in the pop diet doctrines, but as we

RLSers say -- " for me anyway. "

,

I know that chodolate releases setetonin like turkey and milk. I used to take

melitonin (even two of my docs take it each night) then switched to 5thp and

also tryptophan, but I put on wieght with the melitonin and when I asked Dr.

Levine about the two suppliments he recommended against them so I stopped. I

just use over the counter sleeping pills now if I am in a pinch and need to

really get back to sleep. I wish there was a safe way to put you to sleep and

not leave you groggy in the morning.
