Cacao is the medicine you’ve probably never heard of

First discovered by the Aztecs & Mayans thousands of years ago, it’s still used today in shamanic healing ceremonies

Cacao helps balance your energies and promote optimal health/mood

The benefits are endless

THREAD
Cacao comes from a bean that grows on a tree

It’s extremely bitter and consumed as a hot beverage mixed with spices

Today, cacao is mainly harvested to produce sugar-loaded mainstream chocolates

Most of its health benefits are lost during processing
The active ingredient that gives the cacao bean its potent healing abilities is Theobromine

Also known as “Food of the Gods”

Theobromine benefits include:

Promotes wakefulness
🔻 blood pressure
Improves mood & respiratory health
🔻inflammation
Only pure cacao is used in ceremonies

It offers you numerous physical health benefits & is naturally high in:

Magnesium
Iron
B vitamins

A fantastic addition to any stress protocol
Anandamide, the bliss molecule, is produced by your body but also found in cacao

It activates Cannabinoid receptors similarly to THC, the psychoactive component of Cannabis

Benefits include:
- Mood improvements
- Pain management
- Blood sugar balance
- 🔺focus & awareness
Cacao also offers spiritual/emotional benefits

It’s known for unlocking your heart chakra, your energy center for compassion and love

You connect with your higher self & others more easily

Your creativity and mental clarity skyrocket

Hello inner healing
Cacao helps your body and soul thrive

The beauty of it all is that you don’t need the ceremony to get the benefits

Incorporate it as a replacement to your daily coffee for that extra energy
