Why Pure Cacao?
Considered sacred by ancient Mesoamerican peoples, cacao offers valuable nutrients for the nervous system and emotional well-being. Rich in antioxidant flavonoids and tryptophan, it supports the production of serotonin for a "mood-improvement" effect and activates anandamide, "the bliss molecule," providing a feeling of well-being.

SOME RECOMMENDATIONS

  • For the "ceremonial" dose it is 30-42g per person. Instead, we recommend not exceeding 30g per person, in the case of daily and continuous use, it would be more appropriate to use around 10-15g. max. Otherwise, it is good to use it every other day. (If you have caffeine sensitivity, you may decrease the ceremonial dose up to 24g.)
  • Being pure cacao paste, it becomes a natural and very energetic food; for this reason, it should be drunk with awareness and caution, avoiding excesses, and preferring a varied and balanced diet.
  • Consult your / your specialist in case of pregnancy or in case of severe heart disease.
  • The stimulating and energizing effect of cacao begins about half an hour after its intake. We recommend drinking a glass of water before and after to aid absorption and digestion.
