Organic Cacao Powder
Delicious Peruvian Organic Cacao was traditionally used to boost energy, to re-connect with mother earth and to open the heart channels physically and spiritually. Fair trade, sustainably grown, minimally processed and Organic this cacao powder is perfect for hot elixirs, baking, raw desserts and any recipe you wish to add a deep, slightly bitter, chocolatey flavour to.
Organic Cacao powder is a good source of phytonutrients, beta-carotene, amino acids (tryptophan and phenylalanine), omega 3 EFA's, calcium, potassium, magnesium, zinc and iron. The Adandamine (the "bliss" chemical) and Phenylethylamine (PEA) found in cacao increase dopamine secretion (similar to when we fall in love!) heightening feelings of pleasure, creativity, cognitive function and mood regulation.
Cacao contains an abundance of Theobromine, a close chemical relative of caffeine. Theobromine is not a nervous system stimulant; however, it does dilate the blood vessels leading to that energised and happy feeling.
