Professor Larisa Ryseva: drinking high-quality cocoa is one of the simple ways to improve your health.

Professor Ryseva stated in a commentary to Gazeta.Ru that cocoa butter is a product that is unsurpassed in some of its properties, and its use is extremely beneficial for the body. In particular, such oil is saturated with antioxidants that prevent the development of inflammatory and oxidative processes, and their concentration is such that no product can compare with cocoa butter.

Cocoa butter is superior even to dietary supplements in its range of antioxidants, the expert noted.

“Cocoa butter is a natural antioxidant necessary to support the immune system… it contains ferols, which cannot be obtained in natural form from dietary supplements,” said Larisa Ryseva.
The specialist advised using high-quality chocolate with a large dosage of cocoa or a drink made from high-quality cocoa powder with a cocoa butter content of 20-25%. Adequate consumption of such products provides significant support to the immune system and helps to get sick less. In some places (for example, in specialized confectionery stores) you can buy cocoa butter itself – this product can be stored for a long time at home.
