Cocoa is a species native to America, probably originating in the Western Amazon. In Peru it is grown in the jungle of Loreto, San Martín, Ucayali, Huánuco, Junín, Pasco, Madre de Dios, Cuzco and Ayacucho. Cocoa contains phytosterols (especially beta-sitosterol) that block the absorption of dietary cholesterol. It also contains polyphenols, antioxidants that prevent atherosclerotic processes.
