Chocolate can prevent cough.

The most delicious way to kick your cough, apparently is chocolate. One of the sweetest chemical components, theobromine, seems to reduce the activity of the vagus nerve, the part of the brain that triggers coughing fits. Scientists are even working on a cough-quelling drug that uses theobromine in place of codeine - a narcotic common in cough medicine.
