CACAO

Helps kids focus and concentrate at school and for any tween or teens or need a little encouragement to get to school, cacao can boost serotonin levels which is crucial for mood regulation, boosting motivation and makes you feel good.

The minerals in raw cacao, especially magnesium, help promote heart health and are essential for the development of brain function in young children.

Cacao has almost 40 times the amount of antioxidants that blueberries have and has more calcium than cow’s milk would you believe, thus doing wonders for your child’s immune system and protecting them from the germs hanging around in the environment.

Cacao is the highest plant based source of iron in the world, a low iron level can cause decreased attention span, reduced alertness, and learning problems in children and useful for menstruating teenage girls.

Cacao is a great source of four scientifically proven bliss chemicals – serotonin, tryptophan, tyrosine and phenylethylamine. These neurotransmitters are associated with cosy feelings of wellbeing, happiness, and can even alleviate depression.

Non-organic cocoa (and non-organic chocolate) has also been treated heavily with toxic pesticides and fumigation chemicals and may contain genetically modified (GMO) products - ours is always organic.
