I came across an interesting article about chocolate and how eating chocolate can affect or help our health.

It even talks about chocolate and acid reflux. Here is the quote from the article:

–Methylxanthine. Chocolate contains two members of this group of chemicals. One is obscure, the other notorious, but both theobromine and caffeine have similar effects on the body. They may explain why chocolate makes some hearts beat faster, and why it gives many people heartburn by relaxing the muscle between the stomach and the esophagus, thus allowing acid to reflux up from the stomach into the sensitive “food pipe.”
