Organic Chocolate is a complicated beast. It's one thing to grow organic cacao beans, but it can not be sure that what we call "chocolate" is in fact a medley of ingredients, sugar cocoa milk with vanilla and other flavorings. Organic chocolate is healthier and tastier option for your body. You do not have to worry too much about the possible health risks when indulge your sweet tooth. Organic chocolates all taste differently. I would be more than happy to sit down with the professionals who say that organic is not as good as conventional and conduct a blind taste test and they tell me that is organic and what is conventional.

Cocoa powder is made ​​from cocoa seeds that grow in pods on the cacao tree. tree botanical name Theobroma cacao, means "food of the gods", the nomenclature with which I wholeheartedly agree. Cocoa has nearly twice the antioxidant value of red wine and three times those in green tea! Chocolate makes us feel good, because it contains phenylethylamines.

Raw chocolate is a superfood, and I really feel great when I eat it. For one thing, it is a natural mood lifter, and makes me feel really happy and energized. Raw chocolate reduces cholesterol levels and thus has a positive effect on those with heart disease. Raw Chocolate from unprocessed cacao beans is a high vegetarian source of magnesium, chromium, sulfur, and vitamin C. On the antioxidant scale, cacao beats blueberries, green tea and goji berries hands down!

raw chocolate or cacao beans, has such a large amount of minerals, antioxidants and other wonderful things, it makes it one of the most nutritious food in the world. Raw organic chocolate has tons of antioxidants, where broccoli and other vegetables have only a fraction of what you need. Raw chocolate is not only one of the richest sources of antioxidants, Dr. Drewnowski of the University of Michigan found that chocolate stimulates the production of opiates

Cacao contains many chemicals that enhance physical and mental well-being, including an incredibly rich supply of magnesium. Antioxidant rich organic raw cacao (cocoa) powder is processed at low temperatures. Cocoa contains theobromine, which is a mild relative of caffeine and magnesium. The chemicals found in some tranquilizers. Cocoa, as MAO inhibitors, holds a lot of neurotransmitters in circulation and thus stops this phenomenon from ever occurring.

Cocoa beans contain fat, usually around 40%, which consists of cocoa oil, cocoa butter, theobromine (0.9% to 2.35%), small amounts of theine (0.05 to 0.37% ), starch, ash and protein substances (6% to 17%). These percentages differ with respect to the decomposition of glucoside under the influence of fermentation. Cocoa looks the same, those who wish to engage with it will, poisonous or not.

Cacao's rare MAO inhibitors may allow serotonin and additional neurotransmitters to circulate in the brain. It can also facilitate the rejuvenation according to some. Cocoa is high in sulfur mineral beauty. Sulfur builds strong nails, hair, shiny skin, detoxifies the liver and supports the healthy functioning of the pancreas. Cocoa also contains the wonderful natural phyto-chemical called anandamide. Ananda is the Sanskrit word for bliss, and not by chance that our brains naturally produce anandamide when we are feeling bliss!

Cocoa is the food of the heart, the rules come from the head. Cacao is about breaking all the rules, and to me that's a good thing. Cocoa trees grow to about three hundred years in the tropical areas of South America, Central America and Mexico. Documentary evidence shows that even before Christ was used. Cocoa beans contain about 0.8 milligrams of copper per 100 grams. Copper is known to enhance the ability of red blood cells to transport oxygen.

All I have to say at this point is fun! I eat more chocolate!
