Cocoa extract contains naturally occurring γ -butyric acid(GABA) which is beneficial in lowering elevated blood pressure, aiding blood circulation and calming nervousness. The health promoting effects of cocoa extract are contributed by the synergisms of theobromine and polyphenols. In addition, the relaxation effect of cocoa extract is believed to be an attribution of GABA.

 

Clinical reserches revealed that theobromine inhibits fat accumulation while cocoa polyphenols increase fat metabolism.

 

Cocoa extract naturally delivers flavanols, a group of plant compounds found in some fruits and vegetables. They are linked to powerful circulatory benefits.

Theobromine (theobromide), also known as xantheose,is a bitter alkaloid of the cacao plant, with the chemical formula C7H8N4O2. It is found in chocolate, as well as in a number of other foods, including the leaves of the tea plant, and the kola (or cola) nut. It is in the methylxanthine class of chemical compounds, which also includes the similar compounds theophylline and caffeine. (In caffeine, the only difference is that the NH group of theobromine is an N-CH3 group.) Despite its name, the compound contains no bromine—theobromine is derived from Theobroma, the name of the genus of the cacao tree, (which itself is made up of the Greek roots theo ("God") and broma ("food"), meaning "food of the gods") with the suffix -ine given to alkaloids and other basic nitrogen-containing compounds.
