Everyone has eaten a cooked chocolate bar from down the shops, but why has almost no-one ever seen a single chocolate bean?! Is this jack and the beanstalk? Or maybe Willy Wonka. Chocolate grows on trees, in it's most Magical natural state, raw, untouched by heat, air, metal instruments or factory processing, all processing drastically lower Cacao's benefits to mere trace amounts.
These Sun-Loving-Seeds contain a Willy Wonka sized secret which has been kept quietly closed behind Chocolate Factory doors since early discovery. When eaten raw, chocolate works spell-binding wonders in one's Life. So highly valued by ancient Mayan and Aztec civilizations, these sacred beans were once used as money, edible money!. If you dropped one, you picked it up again!

Yeah I'm one of those people who love chocolate and have never seen the live fruit :)
And how do you suggest to consume this wonder of nature so that it unfolds it's divine qualities? :) Simply as a nice hot chocolate?
If you have genuinely RAW powder (which ours is) then the golden rule is keep it RAW! Avoid too much "hot" in the hot chocolate... excessive heat, over excessive time, de-natures the tryptophan availability, "kills the goodness", basically... so aim for lets say; "warm chocolate" -adding the powder after your almond/soy/coconut/oat-milk etc.
Sprinkle on porridge, add to banana smoothies, the options are endless. If you wanna go hardcore, buy the RAW BEANS! Beans will be much more potent, due to much less processing, they are literally able to grow a chocolate tree! I love to have magic beans in my pockets just in case there's a beanstalk & I don't have any energy --not so easy with the powder, although why not make a quick powder-choc-drink, sure, whatever suits you.
Ultimately, aim to get familiar both bean & raw-powder, to give you a deeper sense of the jungle magic's history. I've read books & books on this, and will share more as we progress.
Yes share more articles on that please! Or even videos. I don't think you can eat cocoa beans just like dates or so - so I need more education ;)
You can eat cacao beans like you can eat peanuts, or dates..... but expect to have a very different day! The best education, is DO-ing it.
Ha ha, yes I have yet to parttake in a cacao ceremony
Just look at city people...99% of them don't grow or produce any kind of food. Most of them don't know much about origins of their food including chocolade in this case. Love this post, resteemed.
i was recently reading that cacao deactivates an enzyme called FAAH which normally breaks down anandamide, so results in higher anandamide levels... being that anandamide activates the CB receptors in animal endocannabinoid systems, it can result in a similar feeling to smoking weed... no wonder people like it...
i may well have to take you up on the offer...will be in touch...
considering that activation of the cb receptors has been implicated in pathways that lead to apoptosis(cell death) in cancer cells, the possible medical benefits of increasing anandamide levels by eating cacao are pretty interesting...
Yes, it feels... lovely... divine... negative thinking goes out the window! Keep in touch and let us know if you'd like Beans, Raw Powder, or 50/50 mix of both is possible :)
