I'm 23 and have been adding two tablespoons of raw organic cocoa to my breaky cereal every morning for a number of months. It produces a nice, mild kick start to my day.
Recently I've started taking 1.25mg of Selegiline twice a week and I'm gradually beginning to notice some of it's touted effects. For me, the most noticeable change has been an increase in motivation. Secondary to this are improvements in mood, concentration, libido, energy and overall "zest". Yes, I will admit the stuff does make one slightly more aggressive but it's definitely a fair trade-off
The Problem:
I still want to have cocoa in my diet but am finding raw cocoa now makes me extremely stimulated, to the point where it's uncomfortable. Think mild to medium ataxia and you'll know what I mean. Green tea is fine, so is coffee but raw cocoa is now out of the question, thus I doubt it's caffeine related but instead the Phenylethylamine content (of which cocoa is know for).
Would supplementation be the best way to obtain cocoa's polyphenols without the Phenylethylamine?
