Cocoa, Red Wine, and Tea Helpful for People with Diabetes

A cup of hot tea, a glass of red wine, and now a mug of hot cocoa all have one thing in common; they all contain natural plant compounds called Flavonols.  New research suggests that by satisfying a craving for cocoa,  you can actually help blood vessels to function better. Furthermore,  cocoa  might soon be considered part of a healthy diet for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, the number one cause of death in people with diabetes.

Remember, it's the Flavonols that are responsible for cocoa’s healthful benefits.
