It actually doesn’t taste like chocolate at all! It has its own distinct properties and flavor. Adding cacao to your daily routine may help many areas in the body, including the cardiovascular system, immune system, and digestive system.Cacao is often known to help aid our digestive systems because it contains a considerable amount of fiber, it can help reduce blood pressure and increase the blood flow to the major organs within the body, including the brain and the heart. Adding cacao powder to your diet can increase brain stimulation and help manage anxiety and depression. Drank as sacred medicine in ancient Aztec traditions, and rooted in South and Central American history, cacao ceremonies have long provided healing of the heart and mind.
