Is eating chocolate healthier than drinking tea? This could subvert most people's health concepts. However, this is indeed the latest research result from German scientists.
German scientists believe that in terms of lowering high blood pressure, cocoa products are more effective than tea. However, they also suggest that people should preferably eat low-sugar dark chocolate, because ordinary chocolate is rich in sugar and fat and has very high calories, all of which are great enemies of patients with high blood pressure.
According to the research results of German scientists, cocoa-rich foods, such as chocolate, can help people reduce blood pressure, but drinking green tea or black tea cannot achieve similar effects. For a long time, people have believed that drinking tea has the effect of lowering blood pressure, but the research of German scientists has subverted this concept.
This research result was completed by Professor Dirk Taubert of the University of Cologne in Germany. His thesis was published in the latest issue of the American "Archives of Internal Medicine", which is the official publication of the American Medical Association.
