Effect of Cocoa Consumption in Cardiovascular and Immune Parameters
16. desember 2011 oppdatert av: Monica Lucia Giraldo, Universidad de Antioquia
Randomized Clinical Trial of the Effect of Cocoa Consumption in Cardiovascular and Immune Parameters in Colombian Patients With Newly Diagnosed Stage 1 Arterial Hypertension
Arterial hypertension is one of the most preventable risk factors for stroke, cardiovascular and renal disease.
Cocoa is rich in a subclass of flavonoid called flavanol this increase nitric oxide production and is involved in controlling blood pressure.
