These are three well-studied neurotransmitters which help alleviate depression and are associated with feelings of well-being. > > Cocoa contains monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO Inhibitors) which help improve our mood because they allow serotonin and dopamine to remain in the bloodstream longer and circulate in the brain without being broken down. > > As one lives longer, the level of neurotransmitters decreases. This leads to less creativity, less joy, more physical rigidity -and more rapid aging! > > Cocoa, with its supply of MAO inhibitors, helps keep plenty of neurotransmitters in circulation, and thus facilitate anti-aging and rejuvenation. > > Cocoa contains anandamide which stimulates blissful feelings. Cocoa also contains B vitamins, which are associated with brain health. and now I am nomming some Russel Stover’s 🙂 ---

Non-sequitur alert… in a previous MMP, I mentioned a pair of tall, English riding boots a friend of mine was trying to sell. I found a [picture](http://www.johnlobbltd.co.uk/catalogue/fullsize_images/Website_shoes_boots/Website_boots/Ridingboots/boxcalf_ridingboot.htm) of them; people were interested. ---

[QUOTE=Sticks and Scones] Really? Hee hee hee. [/QUOTE] I’m like **Swampy**. what would I be doing with panties? The pantry, however, holds an abundance of snack foods, leftovers from a party we had last night. I blame the Percocet, of which I’ve had three this evening, plus the Benadryl to keep the itching to merely aggravating levels. ---
