I think it is still premature and these findings must be taken with caution. These are yet sporadic studies. Many variables, research methodologies and sponsors interests reflect on the research conclusions. I am not saying to disbelieve but to use the news with discretion. Less than 7 gms of dark chocolate per day is said to decrease inflammation and prevent heart disease. Other lifestyle modifications that are well documented by clinical experience of decades are more reliable for those who are seriously contemplating to reverse the disease and reduce the attendant risks of hypertension. Dark chocolate can be an ancillary experimentation along with comprehensive lifestyle related choices like nutrition, few minutes of daily walk, quitting smoking and stress management.

Doctors think that many things combine to cause HBP. Being overweight, drinking too much alcohol, and eating too much salt are risk factors because they raise your risk of having HBP. Doctors established a long time ago that happy and humorous people don’t fall sick; they don’t suffer high blood pressure and other debilitating ailments, just because they choose to be happy. You would agree that’s not such a difficult decision to make. Doctors often suggest you to decrease salt intake, as sodium can increase blood pressure. But this is an advantage for people with low blood pressure. According to recent estimates, nearly one in three U.S. In fact, many people have high blood pressure for years without knowing it.

Since this statement is backed up by proofs and I myself, have heard some doctors and other medical professionals claim that dark chocolate gradually reduces high blood pressure. I am not completely aware what ingredient in dark chocolate is responsible for reducing high blood pressure, but the good thing lies on the fact ( as many claims) that eating dark chocolates can be beneficial especially for those who have high blood pressure. “Research published shows that consuming cocoa reduces high blood pressure.”
