Cocoa

Cocoa's popularity has endured for an incredibly long time, dating all the way back to pre-Colombian tribes and predating the Mayans. It is one of the foods in the modern diet that is the most nutrient-dense since it contains significant amounts of important nutrients.

To enhance your mineral intake, try adding cocoa to smoothies, snacking on some dark chocolate, or sprinkling cacao nibs over yogurt. Cocoa products are rich in minerals, despite not typically being thought of as being nutrient-dense foods. Magnesium and copper are particularly abundant in cocoa and cocoa-derived goods. Magnesium is essential for many processes, including the production of energy, control of blood sugar, nerve function, and blood pressure. In addition to many other critical body functions, copper is necessary for healthy growth and development, glucose metabolism, iron absorption, and red blood cell formation.
