Pure Cacao Block | organic | Nibbed

Cacao is the main ingredient in chocolate. Not only does it taste delicious, but it’s also great for your health!

For energy – Cacao contains theobromine, a natural stimulant that can improve energy levels and alertness without the crash associated with caffeine. Cacao beans have 0.22% caffeine content, which is less than a decaf coffee.
For sleep – We’ve mentioned the energising benefits of cacao, but it also has the ability to improve sleep because it contains tryptophan, a precursor to the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin. Plus, Not to mention its magnesium content, which helps relax muscles and promote restful sleep. So next time you’re feeling tired or having trouble sleeping, make yourself a cup of hot cacao instead of reaching for that afternoon cup of coffee or evening glass of wine.
For skin – Cacao is also rich in antioxidants, which can help improve the appearance of skin by reducing inflammation and protecting against free radicals. In fact, it’s one of the highest foods on the ORAC scale, which measures the antioxidant levels in foods.
