FYI, I take Rapunzel brand pure organic, non-treated, sugarless cocoa - 
purchased from my local health food store - once or twice a week just to 
keep my blood pressure low.  I have several friends who have high blood 
pressure and have been taking cocoa for several months now; so far, the 
cocoa has brought everyone's blood pressure down.  In fact, their doctors 
are amazed that my friends have been able to lower their doses of blood 
pressure medication and a few of them are almost ready to drop the 
medication altogether.

We are taking 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cocoa mixed into one half cup of organic 
coffee.  Friends with high blood pressure are taking it daily, but I take it 
only once or twice a week as a preventative.
