A Swiss chocolatier from Lucerne claimed to have invented a new chocolate that can help ease period pains.
Created by Lucerne Company Chocolate with Love, the product contains 60 per cent cocoa solids and 17 Swiss mountain herbs, and is named 'Frauenmond', which translates to 'Women's Moon.’
He told local paper 20 Minuten that he has been working with a herbalist for several months to find a way to work the herbs into chocolate.
Women's Moon is described as “the first healthy chocolate for women”, and there are a number of health benefits, Widmer said, that help lift the body's serotonin, which improves mood. Apparently the chocolate has a calming effect.
