Cocoa Powder Organic 250 g

Organic cocoa powder

Cocoa beans, or the seeds from which cocoa is extracted, grow in pods on a tree known as the cacao tree or Theobroma cacao. Cocoa has been a popular foodstuff for millennia. It is native to South and Central America. It is the basic raw material for making all types of chocolate.

Cocoa contains by far the most antioxidants of any other food. It contains three times as much as green tea. It also contains numerous minerals, such as potassium, zinc, magnesium, iron and calcium. At the same time, it is a source of protein and fibre. All of these are important for maintaining our health. It improves mood by increasing serotonin levels in the brain. In fact, it contains as many as 300 different compounds that can help lift our mood.

The cocoa beans used in this cocoa are hand-picked. The selected beans are first fermented to slightly reduce their characteristic bitterness. This allows the cocoa beans to retain their nutritional value without the addition of unnecessary additives. To benefit from all the positive active ingredients, consuming just 25–30 grams of cocoa a day is sufficient.
