Health Benefits of Cocoa
Cocoa is rich in micronutrients polyphenols and powerful antioxidants flavanols, which help reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure and improve cholesterol and blood sugars. However, processing cocoa into chocolate or other products can greatly decrease its health benefits. It’s even known to have antidepressant-like effects. (Drink up!) Natural, or non-alkalized, cocoa powder and dark chocolate provide the greatest health benefits though they may not taste as sweet as hot cocoa mixes you find on the shelves.
