You may be allergic to cocoa, but there's a higher probability that your are allergic to something that has bee used during the making of the chocolate, for example, nuts. so next time you buy a chocolate see whether nuts, or almonds or arachid oil are mentioned in the ingredients, if these are absent and you still get those symptoms, it means that you are allergic to cocoa.

definitely has the characteristics of an allergy,but to what? Chocolate,nuts, fruit,sweetener.I would think back to every incident and try to get a wrapper from each kind and put together an ingredient list and see what each one has in common.It could be the chocolate, or maybe it only happens when it's chocolate covered cherries, or when you eat chocolate with toffee or peanuts. But don't eat anymore until you've narrowed it down.

Cocoa Beans are fermented to strengthen the flavour in the country of commencing place. This produces a produces 'unfastened fatty acids' in the milled cocoa or the extracted fat - as utilized in white chocolate. After mixing with milk powder, sugar etc the chocolate is 'conched'. it relatively is it particularly is stirred around for twenty-four/40 8 hours at approximately 60/70 C. If the beans have a good number of FFA and/or the conch cycle is shortened to strengthen output the FFA would not get pushed off and provides a 'warm' feeling in the throat. Cocoa Beans are very variable as they are fermented in the country of commencing place it relatively is yet one extra reason some chocolate is warmer than others.

I think you are allergic to choclate. So,sorry for you, best thing to do is avoid it. here is a ray of hope, food allergies do not usually last forever. About 5 yrs. ago I had the same problem (strawberries), now I can eat them without problems. I guess what an trying to say is avoid choc. for now but maybe you will be ok to eat choc. in the future. good luck!

Sounds like a allergy to me. Hate it for ya. Avoid chocolate - sometimes allergies become worse with repeated exposure.

Your best bet is to go through food allergy testing with an Allergist. Your general practioner can refer you to a good Allergist in your area.
