Our organic raw cacao powder is sourced from fair trade farmers deep in the forests of Ecuador. Tests have shown that our raw cacao powder contains 423% more ORAC antioxidants than the best roasted cacao powders on the market. // Chocolate is getting its fair share of press recently and rightly so. Extremely credible sources, such as the Journal of the American Medical Association, Cornell University, Harvard University, and others have presented strong evidence that chocolate - specifically dark chocolate - is one of the world's most nutrient-rich foods.Cacao is one of the most potent sources of antioxidants, containing approximately twice as much as red wine and three times as much as green tea - and that's just roasted chocolate! In its raw form, cacao packs 14 times more antioxidants than red wine and nearly 21 times more than green tea.Cacao is also one of nature's strongest sources of phenylethylamine (PEA). PEA is an adrenal-related chemical that is created within the brain and released when we experience pleasure. PEA also plays a role in increasing focus and alertness. PEA is a heat-sensitive amino-acid, so raw cacao products contain a significantly higher quantity of PEA than most chocolate on the market.Cacao is also a fantastic source of a neurotransmitter called anandamide. Anandamide is found and produced naturally in the brain and is known as "The Bliss Chemical" because it is released when we are feeling great. That's why we feel so great after eating chocolate!!
