What is this food?
AI-assisted
Cocoa powder (imported), a concentrated ingredient made from cocoa beans. It’s usually used in drinks, baking, and desserts for its rich chocolate flavor.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Cocoa powder can add fiber (about 9.5 g per 100 g) which helps keep your digestion regular and supports fullness. It also has healthy flavor compounds that many people enjoy as part of balanced meals. However, this cocoa powder is also relatively high in fat (21.1 g) and saturated fat (12.4 g), and it contains sugar (28.5 g) and sodium (95 mg) per 100 g. Because it’s concentrated, the health impact depends a lot on how much you use and what you mix it with (like milk, sugar, or cream).
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Use small portions: cocoa is strong—start with 1–2 teaspoons per serving, then adjust to taste.
  • If making a drink, choose unsweetened cocoa and keep added sugar low; use low-fat milk or unsweetened soy milk.
  • For baking, balance cocoa with more fiber add-ins like oats or whole grains, and reduce added sugar where possible.
  • Since it has more saturated fat, avoid pairing it with very fatty add-ons (like lots of cream or butter). Aim for a balanced day: 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks, and treat cocoa-based desserts as an occasional snack, not a daily large serving.
