BOOSTS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
Did we hear you sniffle? Cacao contains one of the highest concentrations of polyphenol antioxidants and in particular flavonoids of any food in the world. Polyphenol antioxidants and flavonoids boost your immune system and prevent you from getting a whole host of illnesses. Cacao is also known to be a wonderful home remedy for the common cough by opening up your airways and reducing inflammation in your lungs.
LOADED WITH NATURAL MOOD ENHANCERS
Want to feel great, increase focus, reduce stress, and sleep better? Cacao contains the natural chemical phenylethylamine or PEA (aka “love drug”), anandamide (aka “bliss chemical”), serotonin, a “feel-good” brain chemical, and Tryptophan, a natural anti-depressant amino acid. Taking care of yourself has never tasted so good.
LOW IN CARBS AND CALORIES
While low in carbs, calories, and fat, cacao acts as a natural appetite suppressant that can curb your appetite and promote weight loss. Other studies also show that Cacao stimulates serotonin production in the brain which suppresses the appetite and can result in consuming less calories.
SUPPORTS YOUR BONE, BRAIN, AND HEART HEALTH
Cacao is one of the best natural plant sources of magnesium in the world. Magnesium helps support the heart, aids digestion, balances brain chemistry, and builds strong bones. Many Americans are chronically magnesium deficient, and cacao is an amazing source for this nutrient. Just when you thought your heart couldn’t love pure dark chocolate even more!

and Mayans, and now we’re bringing that history to you.
