 
Anandamide: Anandamide is also known as the bliss chemical. Cacao contains both
nacylethanolamines, believed to temporarily increase the levels of anandamide in the brain,
and enzyme inhibitors that slow its breakdown. It also promotes relaxation, and helps us feel
good longer.
 Essential minerals: Cacao beans are rich in a number of essential minerals, including
magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium and manganese.
 
Magnesium: Cacao could be the world’s #1 source of magnesium. Magnesium balances brain
chemistry, builds strong bones, and helps regulate heartbeat and blood pressure. Around 80%
of people are magnesium deficient. And it is linked with PMT, hypertension, heart disease,
diabetes and joint problems.
 
Sulfur: Cacao is high in the beauty mineral ‘sulfur’. It builds strong nails and hair, promotes
beautiful skin, detoxifies the liver, and supports healthy pancreas functioning.
 Essential fats: No, chocolate isn’t fattening! Don’t believe on myths. It’s the quantity of
chocolates that make you fat. In truth, the fats in cocoa butter are healthy fats. Cacao contains
oleic acid, a heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, also found in olive oil that may raise good
cholesterol.
 
Appetite suppressant: Yes, that’s right! Raw chocolate actually has appetite-suppressant
properties and often added to weight loss products to help control hunger.
 
Aphrodisiac: Chocolate has long been the food for lovers and is a symbol of sensuality and
sexuality. The ancient Aztecs gave chocolate as wedding presents and other South American
civilizations believed that chocolate was the food of the heart.
