Our Ceremonial Cacao
100% Raw Ceremonial Grade Criollo Cacao
Theobroma [Food of the Gods]
- Pure, organic, unrefined and quality controlled, this sustainably sourced heirloom variety Cacao exceeds the highest standards.
- Grown in the rich soils of Taraporto, Northern Peru, this heart opening medicinal Amazonian chocolate boasts extraordinary health benefits.
- Wonderfully indulgent, Cacao provides a beautiful inclusion to anyone’s daily routine.
- Cacao contains Theobromine; think 'Caffeine, without the crash'. Theobromine acts on smooth muscle tissue, promoting relaxation, vasodilation and a higher response rate as opposed to caffeine, which stimulates from the CNS and, with repetitive use, binds to adenosine receptors in the brain affecting sleep.
- Cacao is naturally rich in the major tissue salts and minerals used in the structure and proper function of our tissues
- Cacao has the highest magnesium content of any whole food, is loaded with major & trace minerals, as well as essential amino acids, supporting hard working muscles and reducing stress
- This Cacao has not been roasted which results in a product that is significantly higher in nutrition
- Being un-roasted, our Cacao contains nootropics and neurotransmitters such as anandamide (Bliss), serotonin (stress defence), dopamine (Kidney Jing and motivation) and phenylethylamine (focus)
- Cacao is also high in fibre. So along with its EAA's, nootropics & neurotransmitters it works to improve cellular responses and provide an overall better ‘efficiency’ throughout the digestive process, particularly when coupled with a regenerative diet [see invictusclinics.com.au for detail]
- Raw Cacao, gram for gram, contains 40x the antioxidants of that found in blueberries. Antioxidants trap free radicals (corrupt oxidised cells) & reduce the risk of cells in the body undergoing oxidation
- The compounds in Cacao reduce blood pressure and clear blood vessel walls of fatty deposits (plaques). This reduces the load on the heart muscle and assists in whole body oxygenation
- Cacao promotes thermogenesis, a process which encourages the body to burn fats rather than store them
- Containing the terpene Ocimene, Cacao is also used as a mild decongestant and expectorant
- Cacao holds a high standard in the field of anxiety management due to its potent levels of Myrcene, L-Theanine, Linalool, Phenylethylamine & Anandamide
Cacao is revered for the heart opening feminine medicine that she is, and with the above attributes, it is easy to see why
