We have been engrained to believe if its ‘chocolate’ then it cant be good for you then – am I right? Well in recent years Organic Raw Cacao Powder has been making waves for being one of the highest antioxidant foods known, a rich source of magnesium and mood enhancing brain chemicals, including PEA (phenylethylamine), anandamide, serotonin and dopamine. It benefits:
- Heart Support
- Mental Clarity
- Lowers Blood Pressure
- Natural Anti-Depressant [I think this we already knew ;)…]
- Slows Aging
- Boosts Immune Systems
- Natural Appetite Suppressor
