Abstract in brief
Regular intake of plant-based foods like cocoa is associated with a lower risk of heart disease and stroke according to epidemiological studies.
Research suggests cocoa may have positive effects on blood pressure, insulin resistance, and blood vessel and platelet function, possibly through mechanisms such as activating nitric oxide and reducing inflammation.
The review discusses current findings on cocoa’s cardiovascular benefits, underlying mechanisms, and potential health implications of consuming cocoa regularly.]
