CocoaGold™ Cocoa Polyphenols
Polyphenols, which provide dietary anti-oxidant benefits, are naturally abundant in cocoa beans. Cocoa polyphenols, as found in dark chocolate, have shown beneficial effects on cardiovascular health, especially vascular health.
Two studies testing dark chocolate or cocoa found significant improvement in overall function of the endothelium in healthy volunteers (71,72). Another study revealed that dark chocolate can help maintain normal blood pressure levels already within normal range (73,74).
Additionally, studies of cocoa polyphenols show that they can maintain already healthy HDL, blood pressure, insulin sensitivity, and blood glucose levels in those already within normal ranges (75-78).
