Abstract

The antioxidants such as polyphenols, especially flavonols, present in large quantitites in cocoa, cause vasodilation, modulate inflammatory markers and cardiovascular health, and possess a range of protective cardiovascular effects. On the other hand, overconsumption of chocolate can lead to tachyarrhythmias, supraventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation due to its caffeine content. This review describes both the cardioprotective and adverse effects of chocolate and its constituents.

摘要

可可中大量存在的抗氧化剂，如多酚，尤其是类黄酮，可引起血管舒张、调节炎症标志物和心血管健康，并具有一系列保护心血管的作用。另一方面，由于巧克力含有咖啡因，过量食用巧克力可导致心动过速、室上性心动过速、心房颤动、室性心动过速和心室颤动。本综述描述了巧克力及其成分的心脏保护作用和不良反应。
