SUMMARY
It is indeed possible to overdose on chocolate, primarily due to its high sugar content rather than the chocolate itself. An experiment conducted by Gert Fyllking on RIX FM demonstrated that consuming a large quantity of chocolate liqueurs led to severe nausea, akin to a sugar shock. An M.D. confirmed that the rapid intake of sugar overwhelms the body's insulin response, resulting in sickness. Therefore, chocolate overdose is a real phenomenon when consumed in excessive amounts over a short period.
