Raw chocolate

Raw cacao has more antioxidant/flavonoids than blueberries, red wine, and black and green teas. Because cacao is an antioxidant powerhouse, it helps to blood vessels dilate, reduce blood clotting, improve circulation, help regulate heartbeat and blood pressure, lower LDL cholesterol, and reduce the risk of stroke and heart attacks. Cacao beans are rich in a number of essential minerals, including magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium and manganese. Cacao also helps to increase the levels of specific neurotransmitters in our brains, which means that cacao can promote a positive outlook, facilitates rejuvenation and simply helps us feel good.
