    actually started just today a cup of warm cocoa with a pinch or cayenne pepper and 1/4 tsp of cinnamon. What would be really great is for people who have added Cocoa to their diets, some time ago to come tell us today what they have found in changes ? Too many of us find what we are looking for and fail to report back later what changes they seen or felt. I am included in that group, but maybe I can start a change in myself with this comment that might help others do the same. Thanks for sharing.

      @@shan5445 I started the Cocoa with cayenne pepper a few days back and so far I am not seeing anything different, plus I added L-arginine and L- Citrulline pills. I have no medical issues, other than glaucoma, I eat mostly plant based, do not eat sugar and very little salt. I exercise regularly, But at age 70 its seems like a losing battle. but I will never not try. If you have some other thoughts please share.

    It seems there has been some miss-information regarding Oxalates that has been published, as there are some comments relating to it have been posted. My understanding is that Oxalates are only a problem if your gut biome does not include Oxalate digesting bacterium such as Oxalobacter formigenes. This bacterium is found in all animals that consume Oxalates. Cattle, for example will get sick from eating clover (a member of Oxalis) if they lack sufficient quantities of Oxalobacter formigenes in their gut. Humans may lack Oxalobacter formigenes if they do not eat sufficient quantities of Oxalate containing foods, or have recently been on a course of antibiotics, or, have eaten something that kills Oxalobacter formigenes, such as Eucalyptus oil, which is sometimes used in lozenges for treating sore throat.
