Non-apoptotic death has been seen in
both colon and breast cancer cell lines
that have been introduced to cocoa
polyphenols during in vitro studies, this
has been preliminary evidence. The
exact anti-cancer mechanisms are not
currently understood at this time, even
though enzymes that were involved in
polyamine biosynthesis have been
affected.
Studies on animals have
shown that cacao liquor extract may
assist in defending against cancer of
the liver and pancreas, but no evidence
of this has been seen in human studies.

A condition called Hysteroid
dysphoria has shown up in some
studies of chocolate, this
condition is characterized by
episodes of depression in response
to feeling rejected and a craving
for chocolate.
Cocoa has been shown to have several
cardioprotective mechanisms which are
like those found in several other
flavonoid rich foods and beverages
including red wine and green tea. It has
also been shown that these
flavonoid-rich foods have an
anti-carcinogenic action in vitro and in
animal models, this has been supported
by some, but not all epidemiological
data.
