Role of Polyphenols in Cocoa in Reducing Risk of Neurodegenerative Diseases
Several studies have discovered that polyphenols such as those found in cocoa reduce the risk of neurodegenerative diseases by improving brain function and blood flow. Flavanols can cross the blood-brain barrier and participate in biochemical pathways that produce neurons and other molecules required for brain function. Furthermore, flavanols influence nitric oxide production, which relaxes the muscles of your blood vessels, increasing blood flow and supply to the brain.
