Every time she said “Raw cacao” I heard “rock a cow” and thought about cow tipping 🤷‍♂️

Chocolate pudding: 1 tbsp raw cacoa, 2 tbsp chia seeds, 1 cup oat, soy or almond milk. Put in a vitamix to blend then put in freezer for 30 mins. So healthy and delicious!

That bliss feeling is from the compound known as anandamide.

Thanks for clearing up the confusion.

Love the Raw Cacao. Clean energy. Great Diet enhancer. Heirloom varieties are the best!
No negative side efects from my experience.

Nothing to do with cocoa and cacao (both of which I love), but your hair is amazing!

[mfshope]

This was so helpful!!! I was on the hunt for this and finally found it in the vitamin/supplement section @ Whole Foods.

plain old cocoa powder provides all the minerals anyone could need, along with some nice antioxidants. It is hard to imagine that cacao is THAT big an improvement. The truth is you have a superfood sitting in your cabinet already. The same underapreciated super food that is your moms cupboard when you were growing up.

They sell Raw Cacao at Walmart - a huge one pound bag! I blend 2 tablespoons of it with soy milk and chocolate protein powder and it makes a great after workout shake!

Occasionally i may use honey, but mainly eat them bitter!
I got used to it :-)
it's actually only bitter when first hits your taste buds, but once you chew into a mush the bitterness significantly subsides...
Most people avoid bitter foods, but according to the ayurvedic science of the six kinds of Taste and mental States and qualities they relate to, bitter taste (opposite of sweet) builds discipline energy in the brain and nervous system and balances out too much Water element ... has the quality of drying.
No matter how much I was exercising, eating all healthy fats, A ideal Pescatarian/Vegetarian diet and staying away from sugar, dairy and wheat I was SO DAMN FRUSTRATED about my belly still appearing bloated a lot.
Soon as I started eating a handful of Cacao nibs daily
(deliberately raw) I noticed my belly started shrinking quickly!
Sounds Crazy, but true!

I made a chia seed pudding with cacao powder and heavy whipping cream. I don't use any sweetener. I like it a lot.

Great content, you know your stuff and your inner glow shows from all the joyous health! Thank you for sharing and dropping the knowledge, this is exactly the information I was looking for.

[AmbassadorOfChristJesus]

So, which one has more nutritional benefits?

[MrClemmo]

Great video. I put 2 teaspoons of raw cacao nibs in my porridge each day. And raw cacao powder in greek yogurt with a little maple syrup. Love it!

[cmvr]

GREAT Video!! BUT....you forgot to mention it needs to be organic. You also forgot to mention the cocoa powder IS very healthy, but raw cacao is better.

I always buy Organic Cocoa powder. But, thanks to you I am switching to organic raw cacao! And yes, I do sweeten it with organic raw honey, organic coconut palm sugar and/or organic stevia.

[nicholabrown]

I add 1 tsp to warmed almond milk organic. It is sweetened but only by a small amount of sugar.

[mdik]

WAIT WHAT!?!?! i didn't know milk can prevent Antioxidant :( what a wasted time for drinking Matcha with milk.

[jacquelineclemons]

I want to try this instead of coffee how would i do that using this?

[SuzanneAWells-tlje]

Thanks for explaining! Off to Sprouts to get some today for my bulletproof coffee!

Roasting reduces phytates. Phytates blocks some uptake of minerals. Some brands don't use lower and slower heating which gives you the best of both worlds. Better digestion and less phytates.
