The Effects of Dark Chocolate on Blood Pressure in Individuals With Mildly Elevated Blood Pressure — CHOKO  

Blood Pressure Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effects of Dark Chocolate on Blood Pressure in Mildly Hypertensive Individuals

Clinical Trial Summary

The evidence linking chocolate with lowered blood pressure has been observed. However, the interventions have been short, at most 4 weeks. The aim of this study is to find out if the habitual consumption of dark chocolate for 8 weeks has an effect on blood pressure. Also, more insight to the mechanisms linking chocolate to individual healt-responses is needed.
