Increasing cerebral bloodflow in seniors with cocoa improved white matter structures and cognitive function. "Sorond et al demonstrate a convincing link among cerebral vascular function, structural integrity of the brain, and cognitive function, and showcase the remarkable potential for transcranial Doppler ultrasonography as a biomarker for cerebral vascular pathology," said Paul B. Rosenberg, MD, of Johns Hopkins, and Can Ozan Tan, PhD, of Harvard. http://www.medpagetoday.com/Geriatrics/AlzheimersDisease/40877Cocoa May Boost Brain Function in Seniorswww.medpagetoday.com Older people with impaired neurovascular coupling at baseline who drank two cups of cocoa a day for a month had significant improvement in cognitive function and blood flow in the brain, investigators
