mudanças no comportamento alimentar, que estão associados com o desejo de comer alimentos altamente palatáveis. Embora não haja uma relação causal clara, existe uma associação entre o desejo excessivo de chocolate e as mudanças hormonais do ciclo menstrual. Examinamos o efeito dos consumos de chocolate de leite e chocolate com maior teor de cacau (50%) adicionado de fibras no desejo por doces e sintomas de síndrome de tensão pré-menstrual em 19 participantes. Este estudo experimental aberto durou 2 ciclos menstruais, incluindo fase de controle (fase I) com ingestão de chocolate de leite (50 g/dia) e fase de intervenção (fase II) com o consumo de chocolate 50% cacau com fibras adicionadas (50 g/dia) durante a fase lútea de cada ciclo. Os sintomas de síndrome de tensão pré-menstrual foram classificados por escala validada. A intervenção com de chocolate 50% cacau com fibras adicionadas, comparada com o baseline e controle com chocolate ao leite, mostrou uma redução nos sintomas físicos (p = 0,0206), e tanto os períodos de intervenção como os de controle mostraram mudanças nos padrões alimentares (p = 0,0012), como redução do desejo por doces, chocolates entre outros.
Palavras-chave: síndrome de tensão pré-menstrual, síndrome pré-menstrual, cacau, chocolate, compulsão alimentar, serotonina.
