https://ueaeprints.uea.ac.uk/id/eprint/83339/I found this today when looking for a reference about non-responders to blueberry flavonols. I'm sharing the link in a separate post since it has a really wonderful literature review.

Sorry to hear that. I suspect that there are non-responders for cacao flavonols, just like there are non-responders for blueberry flavonols* (the mechanism of action is similar, involving nitric oxide production). Chocolate and cacao products can vary in the amount and quality of flavonols. CocoVia has a very high amount of flavonols (and low heavy metals, and no added sugar or fat in the plain powder), so that's what I'd recommend trying if someone is interested in testing the effects of cacao flavonols.
There are other ways to boost nitric oxide production.
Here's a YouTube playlist of videos on nitric oxide and ways to increase it:
