Cocoa Supplement
Cocoa is one of nature’s most powerful superfoods. In its natural form, it is naturally bitter and contains a wide variety of minerals, vitamins and antioxidants that offer great health benefits. Cocoa Hx® contains all of the nutritional components that occur naturally in pure dark chocolate, without the saturated fat, sugar and calories found in chocolate bars. Its powerful antioxidants have been shown to support healthy circulation to the brain and heart.†
Cocoa Hx® also includes powdered kiwi fruit and freeze-dried black raspberry fruit to support respiratory health and to protect genes and DNA throughout the aging process. Freeze-dried black raspberry helps protect the entire digestive tract, including the mouth, stomach, and colon.†

The Science Behind Ingredients In Cocoa Hx®
The cocoa flavanols in our formula have not been processed or stripped of their natural antioxidants and nutrients. The minerals found in cocoa have been the focus of much recent research into the cardiovascular and blood sugar benefits that these “superfood” cocoa beans provide. The magnesium, copper, iron and potassium all affect vascular function hence, improving cocoa’s nutritional effect. Magnesium is the most abundant mineral in cocoa and it is responsible for a multitude of biologic reactions, including protein synthesis and energy production, as well as acting as an antiarrhythmic and hypotensive agent.[1]
The minerals and antioxidants in cocoa have been shown to induce the release of nitric oxide, supporting healthy blood pressure levels. [2]
Cocoa also contains a high amount of theobromine, a compound similar to caffeine without the caffeine affect. Theobromine possesses antioxidant properties that have been shown to target oxidative stress, support healthy cholesterol levels, and enhance mood.[3]
Cocoa has also been studied extensively for its brain supporting properties, as well as for focus, mood and overall memory. [4]
Cocoa also contains other compounds with potential biological activity to optimize brain health. These are biogenic amines such as serotonin, tryptophan, phenylethylamine, tyrosine, tryptamine and tyramine. In multiple clinical trials, cocoa has been verified with functional MRI testing [5] and electroencephalogram (EEG) [6] in enhancing cerebral blood flow to the brain, and improving cognitive performance.

When I started taking the Cocoa Hx® (along with Cardio Hx®), my blood pressure came within normal range.
