Very good news for all dark chocolate lovers ( like me ) as it contains among other healthy things: theobromine.
"A active compound in chocolate which may be more effective than codeine in treating persistent coughs."
I tried it myself several times when I had a nervous cough after I heard about it and ..................... it helps instantly. Unsweetened dark chocolate containing > 70% chocolate beans helps best.

Yep, didnt miss that Max, not a huge fan, but I don't have a sweet tooth anyway, so no hardship to give it a go!
