This power lies within Cocao's rich content of flavanols, a type of antioxidant. Science suggests these flavanols may improve blood flow by relaxing blood vessels, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease. Studies even show promise for improved cognitive function, with some research indicating a link between cocoa consumption and enhanced memory and focus.
The potential benefits extend beyond the heart and mind. Cocoa may also contribute to a healthier gut. Research suggests the flavanols in cocoa act as prebiotics, promoting the growth of good bacteria that contribute to overall digestive health. Additionally, early studies hint at a connection between cocoa and mood regulation. Some evidence suggests it might influence the production of feel-good brain chemicals, potentially offering a natural mood boost.

—Midwest Book Review
Dreena’s Kind Kitchen is my new favourite recipe book! She gives loads of tips and all of her plant-based recipes are thoughtfully created. Her flavours are spot on, using healthy ingredients. The book itself is well organized, with beautiful photos and feels good to hold. I highly recommend this book for vegans and non-vegans!
So many Amazing Recipes!

I wasn't certain that I needed another plant-based cookbook but I am so glad that I purchased this one. The recipes are easy and delicious and the tips are fantastic. I often refer to the section on washing produce, for example. I also love that Deena is a Canadian chef. So often plant-based chefs refer to items from US-based stores (i.e. Trader Joe's). Overall this is a most welcome addition to my cookbook library.
Excellent Cookbook
