Open your mind and nourish your body

Cacao is rich with emotional, physical and spiritual benefits that have not only worked for ancient cultures, but also the new wave of people who are embracing cacao in the world today!

Meaning ‘Food of the Gods’, cacao has long been known for its wide range of health benefits. As one of the highest plant-based sources of iron and magnesium on the planet, our cacao is packed full of feel-good compounds and anti-oxidants, making it a natural, delicious and nutritious way to boost your mood and support your overall well-being!

  • Packed with essential vitamins and minerals great for cardiovascular health; high in magnesium, copper, zinc, potassium, amino acids, iron and calcium

  • Zero sugar - Cacao can be used as a healthier chocolate craving alterative

  • Natural energy boost when taken in large amounts - Packed with theobromine for centered, long-lasting energy without the jitters or caffeine crash

  • Helps rejuvenate old cells, providing anti-aging benefits and reducing the appearance of wrinkles

  • Speeds up our metabolism and helps suppress hunger which can lead to less cravings and weight loss

  • Aids with relaxation and sleep - Cacao is one of the highest plant-based sources of magnesium, sometimes known as the “sleep mineral”. Magnesium is a natural relaxant that helps deactivate adrenaline and is said to quiet nerves and calm sensitivity to pain

  • Renowned for releasing dopamine and endorphins in the body, which soothe symptoms of PMS as well as depression and anxiety

  • Boasts its fair share of phenylethylamine, aka the “love drug.” In other words, it contains the same chemical our bodies release when we fall in love

  • Promotes feelings of joy and bliss - Cacao releases serotonin and contains anandamide which is known as the “bliss” molecule. This is the same thing produced in your body when you workout and you feel a rush of good energy

  • Relaxes the nervous system as well as the busy ‘thinking mind’, enabling us to access the deeper layers of consciousness that often go unnoticed or neglected

  • Contains a significant amount of chromium which balances blood sugar levels and encourages brain power. It increases the blood flow to the brain, creating more mental agility, awareness and focus

  • Heart opener and enhances meditation - A ceremonial dose connects people with the spirit of cacao, to help release blockages around the heart and heal emotional wounds
