Update; The Dark Chocolate Miracle

Beats Any Magic Pills At The Drug Store


"Based on the research and information I have on November 2007 the following makes sense to me," Harlan Jacobsen Copyright © 2007


We have been telling you that studies show the flavonols in cocoa (dark chocolate) stimulate your body's production of nitric oxide—boosting blood flow to your heart, brain, and other organs.

We consider it the greatest thing we have every published that will improve your life expectancy, make living with diabetes tolerable and we suggest you read our previous articles on it.

Two major studies show it cut the death rate of those participating in half.

In my case, it has really improved my ability to get things done and work long days again. It has opened up circulation, is my guess. (and I am still alive approaching 80 so that part must be working too.)

There have been dozens of studies showing benefits of unsweetened cocoa, dark chocolate, (no milk, kills benefit) In fact, one study found cocoa thins your blood just as well as low-dose aspirin! Aspirin on a daily basis has very bad long term side affect in case you are not aware.

Every one of the dozens of chocolate studies indicate no bad side effects, with any chocolate, which is very important.
Chemical medications that do any of these things, all have negative side effects to some degree, some very serious.

But that's not all. Harvard Medical School studies reinforce claims that cocoa can also treat and statistically greatly cut blocked arteries, congestive heart failure, stroke, dementia, even impotence!

The special Hershey dark chocolate cocoa we use is now becoming available in more and more stores. (under $4) and lasts about a week per container.
If your grocer does not have Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Cocoa, ask them to stock it. We use it in several things besides drinking cocoa. (see our recipes)
Remember, the dark chocolate candy bars Hershey makes contain sugar and milk and are almost worthless from a health standpoint, and are not on the acceptable list for a diabetic.

There are other companies making chocolate bars that are 85% plus dark chocolate cocoa. Look at the other ingredients before using but do not bother with anything less then 70% cocoa.

Note: Unsweetened dark chocolate is bitter, and the "dutched version" is alkalized, so it not only improves the taste, and improve it, so it does not have as much acid affect on your body chemistry. However, this lowers the beneficial flavonal affects but the taste is so much better you can consume it more readily and make up for it in eating more volume.

You will over time develop a taste for unsweetened chocolate.
Hershey now makes a new package labeled dark chocolate that instead of 100% alkalized is 50% alkalized. This ups or keeps more of the beneficial flavonals, but is a little more bitter.

Regarding developing a taste, for example, I can now eat the 100% cocoa Giabraldi baking chocolate bar, ($2.25) (not dark) now straight and tastes okay and that was not the case originally. It is not dark but has about half the beneficial affect so you just eat more.

The benefits of cocoa have a half life in your body for six hours. In my case I consume more every six hours, (all from made from contents of Hershey Dark Chocolate box) using my breakfast cereal chocolate etc recipe and in the evening a chocolate pudding made with yogurt, cocoa and green tea, a combination of cocoa and other ingredients such as coconut and flax seed oil, etc make my own bar, etc. (keep in frig to keep rigid)

More studies now confirm cocoa (dark chocolate) (unsweetened, no milk) has some beneficial affect for diabetics glucose control.
