Dietitian note

Cocoa contains compounds that can relax the lower esophageal sphincter, making it easier for stomach acid to reflux. It also stimulates the production of stomach acid, further contributing to heartburn and GERD symptoms. Additionally, cocoa's caffeine and theobromine content can exacerbate reflux by increasing stomach acidity and relaxing the LES.

Description

Chocolate flavored powder is often described as rich and mildly sweet, also producing a creamy consistency when blended but sometimes leaving a slightly grainy or chalky aftertaste. Commonly mixed into smoothies, shakes, coffee, oatmeal, and baking batters; reviewers note easy blending with a blender but occasional clumping without vigorous mixing.
