5 myths about pure cocoa powder

Nowadays, very few places sell pure cocoa powder, instead there are 3in1 cocoa, mixed cocoa…. It is inevitable that there is a lot of confusion about the real use of pure cocoa powder

The darker the pure cocoa powder, the better it is?

Color does not affect cocoa powder quality. In the production process of cocoa powder, it is necessary to go through the "alkalization" step to bring the pH to neutral because the cocoa fruit has an acidic taste. This alkalizing step changes the color of the dough but does not affect the taste. Depending on cocoa, each region will have different colors, but the general tone goes from light brown to dark red brown. Delicious cocoa or not is due to the purity of production and the soil and climate of each region affect the quality of cocoa fruit.

Does cocoa powder cause weight gain?

If you use cocoa powder and experience weight gain, there are only 2 reasons: First: You put too much sugar/milk, sweeteners will increase weight. Second: You use cocoa mixed with a lot of cereal flour, which reduces the nutritional content but increases the amount of energy absorbed. In fact, pure cocoa powder has a pretty good weight control effect. If you use the right amount of sweetener and use it to replace a meal, you can also lose weight! The same is true for using pure dark chocolate to lose weight, but eating milk chocolate will cause weight gain because in fact, 70% of dark chocolate's main ingredient is cocoa.

Drinking pure cocoa causes heat in the body?

Any type of food used in excess can cause unwanted side effects. Pure cocoa has anti-cancer antioxidants, does not cause body heat if you use a sufficient dose of 1 cup / day. Be careful not to add too much sugar/milk because it is the sweetener that causes heat to the body.

Pure cocoa has caffeine, so will it be as harmful as drinking coffee?

The amount of caffeine in cocoa is very low, many times lower than in coffee and is almost harmless to users. Instead, theobromine has the effect of helping to stay awake but has more health benefits than caffeine. That's why drinking cocoa lifts your spirits but doesn't cause fatigue. On the other hand, pure cocoa also helps to stabilize blood sugar and regulate the heart, something that coffee can never do.

Any type of cocoa powder has the same nutrition

Wrong. Only pure cocoa can ensure the complete nutritional content and the most delicious taste. You may like sweetness, convenience, or consistency when brewing. But if you need a healthy food, only pure cocoa can meet it. Mixed cocoa may have a more "sweet" smell due to added flavoring, may be more convenient due to pre-mixed lactose (which means more preservatives to preserve it for a long time), may be thicker due to the presence of natural ingredients. thicken. But certainly taste and nutrition will never be equal to pure cocoa.
