Adding cocoa to coffee can have greater benefits for heart health. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]A cup of coffee has now become a daily routine to signal the start of the day. Drinking one to two cups of coffee a day not only improves concentration but can also lower the risk of heart disease and heart failure. Adding one ingredient to coffee appears to have greater benefits for heart health. It’s cocoa.
The American health information magazine ‘wellandgood’ introduced the benefits of coffee containing cocoa through an interview with Dr. Nikki Bart, a heart failure and heart transplant cardiologist, and nutritionist Colette Miko.
First of all, people who drink coffee live longer than people who don’t drink coffee. A study published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology found that up to three cups of coffee a day may lower the risk of death from heart disease and stroke.
But Dr. Bhatt cautions that this doesn’t mean you should drink coffee all day. “Recent research suggests that 1 to 3 cups is the optimal amount,” he said. “Anything more than that can cause harm.”
Additionally, coffee drinkers may have a lower risk of heart disease and stroke.
Studies have shown that compared to people who do not drink coffee at all, people who drink moderate amounts of coffee (3 to 5 cups per day) have a 15% reduced risk of heart disease. “Consumption of more than six cups of coffee had no positive or negative cardiovascular health benefits,” Miko said.
While coffee has heart-healthy benefits on its own, adding cocoa can enhance these benefits even further. And some of the benefits of coffee and cocoa are similar. “Like coffee beans, cocoa powder contains flavanols, which have anti-inflammatory effects, relax blood vessels, and improve blood sugar control,” Dr. Bhatt said. “Flavanols have been shown to reduce inflammation and improve blood flow,” says Miko. “This can have a positive effect on heart health by relaxing blood vessels and lowering blood pressure.”
You don’t have to use too much cocoa to get the benefits of adding it to your coffee. And since unsweetened cocoa powder has a bitter taste, using it sparingly is effective. Miko recommends adding up to two tablespoons of cocoa powder or raw cacao powder to your coffee each day to get maximum heart health benefits.
