提起巧克力，人們想到的都是它如何美味。而瑞士新近推出的一種巧克力還能緩解痛經癥狀呢。這種巧克力由盧塞恩的“愛之巧克力”巧克力生產商研制，含有60%的可可粉及17種瑞士草藥的成分，據稱可以緩解女性痛經，故而取名“女月”。

A chocolatier in Switzerland has claimed to have created a chocolate that can help relieve period pains.

瑞士一家巧克力制造商聲稱制造出一種可幫助緩解痛經的巧克力。

The chocolate titled “Frauenmond” which translates to “women’s moon” is made by Chocolate with Love, which is headed by Marc Widmer, who was previously a pastry chef working at top hotels.

這款巧克力名為“女月”，由“愛之巧克力”巧克力生產商研制。這家巧克力制造商的老板馬克-威德默之前曾在一家頂級酒店擔任糕點師。

Mr Widmer claimed the chocolate contains 17 Swiss mountain herbs that can alleviate menstrual pains.

威德默表示，這款巧克力含有17種瑞士山間草藥，可幫助緩解痛經。

The health benefits arise from interactions with the herbs and molecules in the chocolate to produce a calming effect on the body.

"We want to make the menstruation days of women more comfortable," Mr Widmer told 20 Minuten.

"Of course men can also eat the chocolate. I myself have already tried [it],” he added.
