We've been discovering that flavanoids in dark chocolate may have a positive impact on blood pressure, cardiac well being and more. Now there's some evidence that high flavanol cocoa may help people during physical exercise. New research shows high flavanol cocoa helped big and obese people with their blood pressure during exercise.
So, basically, it seems that high flavanol cocoa can make it safer for fat individuals to go to the gym. We are seeing many dark chocolate studies that are consistently showing us the dark chocolate health benefits. Combine that with recent studies on dark chocolate's appetite suppressing qualities and we may begin to see a entire industry pop up. The Chocolate Diet has returned! But this time it has scientific dark chocolate antioxidant findings to back it up.
Note, we did not say dark chocolate is going to cause you to shed weight! Most chocolate available at this time at your local confectionery is high in supplemented fats, refined sugars and likely is NOT high in flavanols. Most flavanols in chocolate are lost in the heating process of making chocolate candy. Truth be told, the study used a high flavanol cocoa drink. There is dark chocolate that is available with cold processed cocoa and is not "dutched" (or alkalized), but it is not readily in the market today at your neighborhood store.
But a high flavanol cold processed dark cocoa could help people at risk begin to workout, reducing their risk, and beginning the process to bring down their blood pressure. A blending of being able to exercise with lowered cardiovascular risk, with the appetite suppression qualities may be able to get people begin to losing weight.
Other previous studies have shown that chocolate helps with mood (which may make it simpler to get going with an exercise program and feel great about it). Dark chocolate studies have shown that high flavanol cocoa may also improve with inflammation which may help with exercise recovery times.
As usual verify with your doctor, because every human being is different, before you start any new exercise or diet program. But having dark chocolate as part of a routine fitness program sure sounds good to me, I cherish chocolate!
