Blueprint Cocoa Powder
High-flavanol cocoa is used to support circulatory health, cognitive function, and skin health.
Quality & Materials
Dosage: 1 scoop (approx 6g) containing >200mg of cocoa flavanols.
Evidence & Testing
Flavanols improve nitric oxide production and arterial flexibility.
Brand Transparency
Tested for Cadmium and Lead, common contaminants in chocolate.
Value Assessment
High cost compared to grocery brands but guaranteed flavanol content.
Why Not Alternatives?
Standard cocoa is often 'Dutched' (alkalized), which destroys up to 90% of flavanols; this version is non-alkalized and tested for heavy metals.
