A new German study published in the American Medical Association Journal Archives of Internal Medicine suggests that chocolate may contribute to lower blood pressure in some people. This is due to the flavenoid content of this popular food. The study was based on an analysis of five randomized controlled trials of coca which followed 173 people for a duration of two weeks. The analysis found an average lowering of systolic pressure of 4.7 mm of mercury and an average lowering of diastolic pressure of 2.8 mm.

Unfortunately this doesn't mean that chocolate is a prescription for low blood pressure. Other factors, including calories consumed, and the type of chocolate may counter any of these possible effects. Most chocolate consumed is highly refined, contains very low levels of cocoa solids and contains very high levels of added refined sugars and milk fats. Varieties of chocolate containing high levels of flavonoids include dark and bitter chocolate as well as Baker's chocolate which contain very high levels of the cocoa solids.

The study also looked at the effects of bulk curcumin extraction turmeric powder on lowering blood pressure and found very slight changes in comparison to the results of the chocolate. As the study was an analysis of five controlled trials covering 343 people, the data collected seemed to take little account into the quality of the tea or its source.

The most commonly consumed tea in industrialized countries is in the form of the tea bag. Not only does the teabag restrict the expansion of the leaves and circulation of the water through the leaves, the quality of the tea leaves used in most bags are referred to as dusting in the tea industry. These dustings have been exposed to substantial amounts of oxygen during processing and storage so it is quite possible that the antioxidants, which are expected to be found in tea leaves, have simply expired.

The researchers concluded in this study that the consumption of foods rich in coca may reduce blood pressure where the results of tea consumption were not nearly as good. Such research is not considered to be conclusive or definitive but provides clues to help others explore the nature and composition of food as they catalogued the many beneficial phytochemicals found in plants as well as their most efficacious sources.
