FYI: Chocolate hurts: Chocolate contributes to stomach aches because: 1) theobromine in chocolate is a caffeine-derivative; 2) the calcium in the milk of mik chocolate stimulates gastrin to turn up acid production; & 3) the fat in chocolate delays stomach emptying. Moderation however is key here with chocolate or in any food consumed.
