Cocoa improves cardiovascular function.
The Hershey Company, Hershey, PA, has announced preliminary results of a Yale University study confirming the cardiovascular health benefits of hot cocoa consumption. Conducted by the Yale Prevention Research Center, the study showed that drinking either sweetened or sugar-free hot cocoa made with Hershey’s Natural Cocoa powder can result in measurable improvements in arterial function.
In the study, 45 participants consumed a hot beverage containing either sugar-sweetened cocoa, sugar-free cocoa or a placebo without cocoa. Hershey’s Natural Cocoa, whose flavanol antioxidant levels are not reduced by the alkali process common to most commercially available hot cocoa mixes, was used. The study was a continuation of ongoing research into the health benefits of dark chocolate consumption.
