More About Cacao

Unlike processed cocoa, which has been heat-processed and loses much of it’s full nutritive value – and has been flavored with sugars and other products, Cacao is a superfood rich in antioxidants, magnesium, and iron.

Cacao's primary active component is theobromine, a vasodilator that opens the blood vessels and stimulates the heart, preparing you to receive.

Cacao also contains anandamide (ananda = bliss in Sanskrit), a neurotransmitter that offers support to mental health and brain function, providing a sense of calm.

Phenylethylamine, or PEA, is another component found in Cacao, which is a natural anti-depressant. It is a gentle-relaxing heart and mind opener that doesn’t cause jitters like caffeine.

Unlike other plant medicines, such as psilocybin or ayahuasca, Cacao is not a psychoactive plant medicine. With Cacao, you are fully present to integrate what is coming through in wisdom for you. In this way, it is a gentle ancient ally opening us up to receive the guidance to show up in our full, authentic, heart-centered presence – bringing our divinity and our humanity together. We can then start to show up for humanity in a different way.
