For those who want to drink their cocoa polyphenols, a neutral tasting, unsweetened beta-glucan complex has been developed to provide the healthy-lipid-promoting benefits of oats along with cocoa polyphenols in each serving. CocoaGold™ with Beta-Glucan blends fiber with potent cocoa polyphenols in a dual approach to provide nutrients that may help reduce the risk of endothelial dysfunction, metabolic conditions, and cardiovascular problems.1-5 Cocoa polyphenols are potent antioxidants that can increase nitric oxide production to help improve blood vessel dilation and blood flow. These processes can help maintain healthy blood pressure for those already within normal range.6 The enhanced circulatory benefits of cocoa have also been shown to improve brain function. Nutrim® oat bran beta-glucan also assists in the maintenance of already healthy blood sugar levels within normal ranges. Research also supports the use of these nutrients to help prevent post-prandial (after meal) endothelial dysfunction. Using CocoaGold™ with Beta Glucan can help maintain already healthy blood sugar levels and offer the cardiovascular benefits associated with high intake of polyphenols. Just mix two scoops with your favorite beverage (best in coffee or other hot beverages) or blend with food to provide 1875 mg of oat beta-glucan extract along with 100 mg of standardized cocoa polyphenols.
