Preservation of cocoa antioxidant activity, total polyphenols, flavan-3-ols, and procyanidin content in foods prepared with cocoa powder.
Little is known about the effects of common cooking processes on cocoa flavanols. Antioxidant activity, total polyphenols (TP), flavanol monomers, and procyanidin oligomers were determined in chocolate frosting, a hot cocoa drink, chocolate cookies, and chocolate cake made with natural cocoa powder. Recoveries of antioxidant activity, TP, flavanol monomers, and procyanidins ranged from 86% to o...
متن کاملEffects of Cocoa Powder on Oxidant/ Antioxidant Status in Liver, Heart and Kidney Tissues of Rats
The aim of study was to asses the oxidative status in terms of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzymes in different tissues of orally administered cocoa-treated rats. For this purpose 12 Male Albino Wistar rats were randomly divided into 2 groups; each group consists of 6 rats. Group I remain untreated, comprises healthy rats. Group II received cocoa powder (1g/kg b.w.) orally for 21 consecu...
متن کاملPolyphenols in cocoa and cocoa products: is there a link between antioxidant properties and health?
Cocoa and cocoa products have received much attention due to their significant polyphenol contents. Cocoa and cocoa products, namely cocoa liquor, cocoa powder and chocolates (milk and dark chocolates) may present varied polyphenol contents and possess different levels of antioxidant potentials. For the past ten years, at least 28 human studies have been conducted utilizing one of these cocoa p...
متن کاملCocoa: antioxidant and immunomodulator.
Cocoa, a product consumed since 600 BC, is now a subject of increasing interest because of its antioxidant properties, which are mainly attributed to the content of flavonoids such as ( - )-epicatechin, catechin and procyanidins. Moreover, recent findings suggest a regulatory effect of cocoa on the immune cells implicated in innate and acquired immunity. Cocoa exerts regulatory activity on the ...
متن کاملPolyphenol-Retaining Decaffeinated Cocoa Powder Obtained by Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction and Its Antioxidant Activity
Cocoa beans contain many functional ingredients such as theobromine and polyphenols, but also contain a relatively high amount of caffeine, which can negatively impact human health. It is therefore desirable to reduce caffeine levels in cocoa powder used to make chocolate or cocoa beverages while retaining functional ingredients. We have established conditions for supercritical carbon dioxide (...
