About Ceremonial Cacao
-
Cacao of the highest standards! Ceremonial Cacao is made from heirloom strains of Cacao from Central and South America. Unlike conventional Cacao or cocoa powder, Ceremonial Cacao has not been defatted and is minimally processed under low temperatures to maximize its health benefits.
These Cacao trees are grown and harvested sustainably, employing regenerative agricultural practices. Above all, the people involved in bringing this Cacao to you are properly compensated and tend lovingly to their work. -
The primary nutritional benefit of ceremonial-grade cacao is its incredible amount of antioxidants—as much as 40x the antioxidants of blueberries, and about equal to the acaí fruit. In concert with the potent theobromine action of cacao, the antioxidants encourage nitric oxide release in the smooth muscle of your vascular system, widening your blood vessels and increasing oxygen transport to your tissues. They also scavenge free-radicals, which are disease-causing molecules resulting from environmental pollutants, as well as normal cell respiration. As a rule, more antioxidants=better health=longer life. Antioxidants have also been shown to have very strong neuroprotective properties, both increasing mental performance and reducing the risk of dementia.
Cacao is one of the highest-magnesium foods on the planet. Magnesium is vital for muscular health, but also for relaxation and proper sleep regulation. The majority of the Western population is deficient in magnesium.
Cacao is the best plant-based source of iron, which promotes proper blood oxygenation and cell health.
It also contains vitamins A,C, and D.
A diet high in cacao has been shown to be heart-healthy, significantly decreasing the incidence of hypertensive disorders and reducing the risk of heart-attack and stroke.
The healthy fats in cacao are both filling (a great bullet coffee replacement) and excellent for hair, nail, and skin health.*FROM www.cacaolabratory.com

Ceremonies reflect our beliefs, hopes, traditions, culture and spirituality. A ceremony can help to show people they are united and that they belong. They can motivate us, stimulate our emotions and prompt memories. The positive effects of a Ceremony are universal across civilizations and are not specific to age or gender.
