Theobrama cacao is the "Food of the gods." It originated in the amazon where it was “food as medicine” for Mayans and Aztecs. A nutritious superfood, Peruvian cacao is high in antioxidants, reduces inflammation, contains flavonoids and serotonin which improve mood, and influences the body's handling of nitric oxide to boost performance recovery. Studies also have shown benefits to cardiovascular, skin and brain health.
