According to a recent study, a quick chocolate bar could prevent major battles between wives and husbands. To lend even more credibility to this study, voodoo dolls were part of it.

Ohio State University psychology researcher Brad Bushman explains, "We need glucose for self-control. Anger is the emotion people have difficulty controlling." So he and other researchers studied 107 married couple for three weeks. Every night their blood sugar was measured and each participant was then asked to stick pins into a voodoo doll representing his or her spouse, indicating the levels of aggressive feelings they had at that given moment.

The study found the lower the blood sugar, the more pins. Go here to see the full ABC article on this subject. Meanwhile grab a Snickers bar. The marriage you save might just be your own.
