Dietary flavanols improve cerebral cortical oxygenation and cognition in healthy adults
Abstract Cocoa flavanols protect humans against vascular disease, as evidenced by improvements in peripheral endothelial function, likely through nitric oxide signalling. Emerging evidence also suggests that flavanol-rich diets protect against cognitive aging, but mechanisms remain elusive. In a ran...
