Our Raw Cacao Powder is rich in a number of essential minerals including magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium, and manganese.

This is one of the reasons why love and chocolate have a deep correlation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn antioxidant laboratory analysis confirms that there are \u003cstrong\u003eover 25,200 antioxidants in a single spoonful of Raw Cacao Powder\u003c\/strong\u003e. Dark chocolate has been touted as a source of antioxidants, but this raw chocolate is way beyond that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCacao seems to be the \u003cstrong\u003e#1 source of magnesium of any food\u003c\/strong\u003e. It contains massive quantities of this essential nutrient. Magnesium is used to balance brain chemistry, build strong bones, and help regulate heartbeat and blood pressure. Magnesium deficiency, which is present in approximately 80% of Americans, is linked with hypertension, heart disease, and joint problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCacao contains subtle amounts of caffeine and theobromine. However, experiments have shown that these stimulants are different when consumed \u003cstrong\u003eraw\u003c\/strong\u003e, rather than cooked. One experiment conducted with a decoction of \u003cstrong\u003eroasted\u003c\/strong\u003e ground cacao beans in boiling water produced an excitement of the nervous system similar to that caused by black coffee. Interestingly, when the same decoction was made with the \u003cstrong\u003eraw unroasted\u003c\/strong\u003e beans, the effects were unnoticeable, leading the researchers to conclude that the physiological changes were caused by aromatic substances released during roasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo, use raw cacao when you get those chocolate cravings! This raw cacao powder can be used in place of cocoa powder in any recipe.

Our premium cacao beans come directly from the farmers who cultivate them. These farmers grow their crops on their own land, using the same sustainable methods that have been used for generations.

The temperature is never allowed to exceed 120° F (other cocoa powders are exposed to temperatures as high as 300° F!). A high-accuracy thermometer monitors the process. The remaining dry cake-like material is then cold-ground and fine-milled so that only the finest raw cacao particles become the finished product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis raw cacao powder has antioxidant activity as exhibited by an ORAC score of 1377 TE\/g and is an excellent source of magnesium (42% DV) and iron (22% DV).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Uses:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e• Get your day started right, by adding raw cacao powder to your morning smoothie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e• Make your own raw chocolate bars or fudge using cacao powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e• Blend into cold coffee drinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e• Sprinkle on banana, other fruits or your cereal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eNutritional Facts\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContent for tab 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContent for tab 3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eReviews\u003c\/h5\u003e","published_at":"2020-07-22T15:44:56-05:00","created_at":"2020-07-22T15:44:56-05:00","vendor":"vendor-unknown","type":"Herbs \u0026 Whole Foods","tags":["Herbs \u0026 Whole Foods: Baking Supplies","Herbs \u0026 Whole Foods: Powders and Clays","Herbs \u0026 Whole Foods: Whole Foods"],"price":1500,"price_min":1500,"price_max":1500,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":35334132531354,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"cacaoorganicrawpowder1lb","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"Cacao Organic Powder 1lb","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1500,"weight":476,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0433\/7211\/8170\/products\/cacaoorganicrawpowder1lb-2.jpg?v=1595450713"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0433\/7211\/8170\/products\/cacaoorganicrawpowder1lb-2.jpg?v=1595450713","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":10333525016730,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.501,"height":433,"width":650,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0433\/7211\/8170\/products\/cacaoorganicrawpowder1lb-2.jpg?v=1595450713"},"aspect_ratio":1.501,"height":433,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0433\/7211\/8170\/products\/cacaoorganicrawpowder1lb-2.jpg?v=1595450713","width":650}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"Cacao is the bean that chocolate is made from.
