raw cacao powder

Raw cacao is a powerful ingredient to add to your well-being routine. It contains polyphenols to help fight oxidative stress and can be fantastic for supporting brain health. As nutritional psychiatrist Drew Ramsey, M.D., previously shared with mindbodygreen: “Those flavanols [in cacao] increase blood flow to the brain… They are involved with short-term memory and in the areas where neurogenesis (new brain cell growth) happens in the brain.”

Cacao powder and cacao nibs have a deep chocolate flavor that is more bitter than processed cocoa products. It tastes similar to a very dark chocolate bar that contains no sugar. It’s perfect for baking, ice cream, chocolate, hot drinks.
