I, too, am sensitive to the artificial sweeteners and have experienced what you experienced. And it usually happens at the most inoperable time.
I love chocolate, and fortunate for me, I was introduced to a raw, unprocessed, cold-pressed dark chocolate that has all of the good and none of the bad in chocolate. Even more important than the cocoa content is how it is processed. 10 per cent unprocessed is better than 90 per cent processed! The chocolate I am referring to is the kind of chocolate that is used in clinical trials and has the high flavonoid content that is needed to get the results you are hearing about. Plus it has no processed sugars (sweetened mostly with berries), no bad fats (cocoa butter is a neutral fat), no preservatives, waxes, fillers nor caffeine. Eat some of this chocolate before a bike ride and you will be surprised at how much more energy you will have. Not to mention, just three servings gives you your 10 servings of raw fruits and vegetables for the day. It is pretty amazing. There are seven decandent products that can be checked out at http://www.cocoa101.com.
