There’s nothing quite like the taste of chocolate (unofficially, the most craved food in the world). Unfortunately, with great flavor comes great consequences. Chocolate always comes with tons of calories in the form of fat and sugar, right?
Not necessarily —  there is a way to satisfy those chocolate cravings while improving your overall health. Introducing cocoa powder, the answer to all of your problems. First, let me explain what cocoa powder actually is.
The chocolate-making process starts with cacao beans from cacao trees. After cacao beans are picked and fermented (to reach their full flavor potential), they are dried and roasted, then ground into a paste. From this paste, cocoa butter can be extracted, leaving the dry cocoa powder. A combination of the cocoa powder and cocoa butter (with the addition of some sweeteners) is used to make the chocolate that we hold dear to our mouths.

Aside from being an essential baking ingredient in the kitchen, cocoa powder can be used in various ways and can be added to virtually anything. You can make hot cocoa with it, add it to your pancakes, put it in yogurt, or even eat it raw (although it’s not recommended) — check out this article for some inspiration on using a different powder in any food.
Cocoa powder can provide that delectable, rich chocolate flavor while providing you with some amazing benefits. Check it out.

Low Calorie/High Fiber

One tablespoon of cocoa powder, depending on the brand, is only about 10 calories. It contains less than a gram of fat, just three grams of carbs, and one gram of protein. In addition to these great low numbers, the fiber content of cocoa powder is incredible, with up to two grams per tablespoon.
Fiber is essential in maintaining a healthy diet, and this 3-to-2 carb-to-fiber ratio is one of the best in the game. Cocoa powder is a very simple (and delicious) way to get more fiber in your body with a very small amount of calories.

Minerals

This magical powder contains the minerals iron, manganese, magnesium, and zinc.
Iron is important for carrying oxygen in the body, making red blood cells, and supporting the immune system. Manganese is part of an enzyme that forms cartilage and bones, metabolizes nutrients, and acts as an antioxidant throughout the body.
Magnesium produces energy and aids in maintaining your heart’s rhythm. And finally, zinc supports the immune system while helping produce and develop new cells. All of these benefits are yours with the ingestion of one tablespoon of cocoa powder, which contains three to nine percent of the daily recommended intake of these minerals.

Flavonoids

A major component of cocoa powder’s health benefits is the presence of epicatechin and catechin, which are two plant-based substances called flavonoids.
While both prevent systematic inflammation by functioning as antioxidants, epicatechin can also relax the muscles in blood vessels, resulting in improved blood flow and a lower blood pressure. Flavonoids and big flavor? Cocoa powder is doing us a huge favor.

Antidepressant

There is some evidence indicating that cocoa powder can act as an antidepressant. Aside from the taste of chocolate immediately inducing joy, the neurotransmitter phenethylamine present in the powder acts as a mood elevator and natural antidepressant.
Cocoa powder may also boost natural opiates in the body called endorphins, as well as the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is stimulated by antidepressants to improve overall happiness.

Caffeine

Each tablespoon of cocoa powder contains about 12 mg of caffeine. Sure, this might not be a lot compared to a cup of coffee or a glass of soda, but let’s be real — any amount of caffeine is a plus.
Next time you crave chocolate, you can forget about all of its bad stigma and negative attributes, because cocoa powder packs mouthwatering taste with incredible nutritional benefits. The best part is being able to eat chocolate-flavored foods multiple times a day without feeling guilt. Instead, feel good about treating your body (and your tastebuds) right.

Other Benefits 

One of the main ingredients of cocoa is flavonoids which are known to boost levels of nitric oxide, a chemical that helps dilate blood vessels and increase blood flow throughout and gives comfort to the Heart, brain and body. 
In humans, flavonoids act as natural antioxidants, combating the cellular damage inflicted by disease-causing free radicals. Diets rich in antioxidants can help reduce the risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer’s. According to the results of a study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, a cup of hot water with two tablespoons of pure cocoa powder has two to three times more antioxidants than a glass of red wine, and as much as five times more than a cup of black tea. Drinking a cup of cocoa may boost our brainpower.
Researchers at the University of Nottingham in England found that consumption of flavonoid-rich cocoa resulted in significant increases in cerebral blood flow.
Scientists at the University Hospital of Cologne in Germany reported that the effects of regular cocoa consumption on blood pressure are comparable to those produced by some prescription medications. The flavonoids in cocoa also appear to have beneficial effects on cholesterol. Cocoa consumption has been shown to increase levels of heart-healthy high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and reduce levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), a type of cholesterol known to contribute to cardiovascular disease.
DXN cocozi has both cocoa and ganoderma extract which contains adenosine [another important antioxidant] . So drinking a cup of hot DXN Cocozi will have double health benefit.
