Stupid ass cocain is not natural. They make it by using a shit load of chemicals. Duhhh lol she stupid
I could really just listen to her say ‘pro-cess’ all day. Love Canadians. Great video. Thank you.
Cocoa can be just as good as long as it is organic with nothing added”
I just saw this video.
I just wanna say that that lady is full of it and doesn’t know what she is talking about. Example: how she said COCAINE is natural… hell no it’s not natural. Yes, it does come from a plant but you have to mix a whole bunch of unnatural (man made) chemicals into it. So just think about that for a second.
Yahshua (Jesus) The Messiah Saves.
I am praying for ALL of you.
Peace and love,

Actually you can overdose from cocoa components like theobromine, caffeine and anandamine, especially the last one. So weed is safer.
I prefer the white chocolate addition, i think its called coke? ������������
Dont be a pussy just snort an oxy 20 like a normal drug user
I have a bad reaction to chocolate. Doctors have been no help, they basically deny that I have an allergy or reaction and blame it on the caffeine. I think it might be the theobromine? My heart rate speeds up and sometimes goes into an irregular heartbeat, and I feel like I am gasping for breath, a feeling of hot flashes, feel nauseous and can get stomach cramping. It lasts for hours.
You should mention that chocolate on it’s own in small amounts is okay…however nobody has a small amount of chocolate I guarantee everyone eats more than the recommended daily dose. Now combine that with the consumption of tea/coffee…I was drinking 2 tea’s a day and eating 4-6 chocolates I got theobromine poisoning and almost died plus the effects of caffeine on my heart was unbearable felt like extreme anxiety when I just had fast heart rate. You should never eat chocolate everyday and if you do don’t eat it with tea or coffee or any other source of theobromine/caffeine…and don’t eat more than the daily recommended amount.
I appreciate some of the info you provide but you’re wrong about milk products and antioxidant absorption. Please look at this article https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/does-milk-block-antioxidants#section6
Thx..
Rolled up $100 bill? Pllllllleeease… we use cut up McDonald’s straws around here or the back of a set of house keys.
These stupid teens thinking there cool and wanna be high lol
No cocaine isn’t natural bitch have you seen how they make it they make it, they add a crap load of chemicals. Natives in South America have been chewing the coco leaves (which is the main ingredient in cocaine) for 100s of years and the only negative side effect people have gotten were bad teeth but it was very mild, sugar is way worse for your teeth and same with opium
Similar to the feeling of MDMA….Ya ok LMFAO. Fucking pure jokes. Taurine and chocolate will never feel like ecstasy. Hell, half the time MDMA doesn’t even feel magical if you have taken if a few times. It loses its “magic” fast. This whole news story is a fucking joke. If you snort chocolate you are a fucking goof ass bitch.
No one. Literally no one. GMA… YOUR KIDS ARE SNORING CHOCOLATE.
Dr. Gabriel Cousens did a study that shown that raw cacao didnt harm the liver. a study published in the October 2009 issue of “Food and Chemical Toxicology” indicates that rats fed cacao demonstrated improvement in liver injuries Two alsmost valid studys and there are no valid studys on that raw cacao harm the liver YET. there is no TRUTH to that yet.Over 20 pounds of pure raw chocolate would need to be consumed all at once to reach toxic levels of this phytochemical they belive. It dilates blood vessels which naturally lowers blood pressure (taking strain off the heart) and increases nutrient uptake during digestion. only anyone with liver damage should avoid chocolate products, its copper content and not so much because of their theobromine content the studys says that animals cant tollerate theobromine as musch as humans can without side effects.
“Does any parent want to see their kid with a rolled-up $100 bill?”
?Uh… really Mr out of touch reporter? They’re using $100 bills…. that is your first thought??? Wow Lmao ��
Another success in making a compressed scientific video, thank you!
Its pronounced CA-CO when I heard her say cacow I thought it was something else. Here in the Caribbean we consume this all the time especially in and nice hot drink with, fresh nutmeg, bayleaf ect! Very tasty
that guys definitely a cokehead clenaing his nose without having shit on his nose
How much teaspoons of raw cacao powder should I consume per day?
I just ate 85% cocoa ( nearly a whole bar)
And My heart is going 120-130 bpm
Theobromine is linked to tachycardia
I wonder what the ‘other’ ingredients consisted of???��������
no, you dumb teens!
you should sprinkle natural cacao powder on weed and smoke it.
sprinkle it on cigarette or whatever floats your boat.
in fact, you can drink it, chew it or shove it up yo butt.
it’s not a secret. cacao is a strong inhibitor.
Love how educational your videos are! Btw, you have amazing smile ��
Guys. My advise is: STAY AWAY from DR ‘ clinics by living a healthy smart way. Eat well, enjoy life.as much as you can. Zero stress
.Once you get sick, doctors know that they will make lots money with you.
I must be a survivalist; I have 50lbs of organic cacao nibs.
My mom is severely allergic to caffeine, so any amount of chocolate consumption would kill her.
What about raw cacao? Is there a significant difference with roasted / treated cacao?
Chocolate agrees with my body, it has never made me feel bad but I bow to your wisdom and I concede that the chocolate I eat is full of dairy, etc, all terrible.
I stock shelves at night, and a few weeks ago was a busted bag of cacao nibs. Out of curiosity I tried a small handful and it was awful. Not a fan. But then again, I take turmeric even though it tastes just awful.
I will tell you chocolate is bad and more people agree https://youtu.be/E8ayXCzIIJc
It’s funny your name is joyous health n I was thinking you always look joyous even if youre Not smiling just in your eyes
GREAT video. How many teaspoons or tablespoons Cacau powder per day? Thank you. [email protected] jimclarkretirement.com
I just saw, that today people are sniffing cacao as replacement for cocaine etc. and me myself find, upon ingesting in mouth raw cacao, that it is really stimulavtive as blooduptake directly in mouth, nose and other such mocus membranes allows the active ingredients not to be broken down in the liver as otherwise would happen if merely eating it.
I am concerned about dental health though, as cacao supposedly or normally seem to be acidity stimulating, but can you maybe have interest looking into this påotentially being or can be a problem for teethhealth? I subscribed to you as you seem competent to a degree where I would listen carefully to your findings, eventhough still as allways have the natural radar out for nonsense…;).
I eat the powder raw, teaspoon tipped into mouth and then caretaking not breathing but letting it stay in mouth like junkies keep their drugs under tounge sometimes as the mocus membrane is espc. thin there, but allso is quite thin in rest of mouth, it feels like, as there seem good absorbtion from putting on tounge too. No need sweetner or the like and this is quite enjoable this cacaotaste that spreads silently and nonviolently as happening when we swallow stuff.
1.45 I think this may be a little incorrect the way youve phrased it. There are multiple adenosine receptor subtypes in CNS caffeine is an antagonist of these receptors which block them like you said. HOWEVER adenosine would activate these receptors, not block them like you were saying. adenosine receptor activation, specifically 1 and 2a subtypes (as per wiki, I dont walk around carrying specifics on subtypes of adenosine receptors in my head) is thought to increase fatigue. So antagonising these receptors via xanthine derivitives reduces this fatigue, like you were saying.
I think you just mis-worded how adenosine works.
Maybe add a little note or something over the vid:) hope this helps.
good video otherwise
Look forward to hearing more about that DNA thing and stuff being held back in regards to excelling.
Could I eat cocoa and cacao the same day both in low amounts…let’s say about 1 tablespoon each?
I just bought the organic Cacao is that good I got it on Amazon no additives or anything 2p calories
Can this really cause birth defect it said on the label that I bought
I took 1 oz of cocaine for two years after watched this, then I got new power and a lot of energy.
Thank you
I had eaten a whole bar of 90% cocoa before watching this. 10,000 mg in my body, I’m a ticking bomb lmao. Thank you so much for the information. You have save my life with the keto diet along other info.
WARNING: I am an adult male and have been taking this for almost a year. 1 medium to large mug, 2/5 coffee, 3/5 milk, 1 tea spoon of raw cacao powder, and I developed pain in my left chest. sometimes even shooting pain from my chest to elbow or index finger/thumb. This went on for a while and took a break from coffee. Started up again and later found out that it was the cacao.
Just because us humans are more tolerant of cacao compared to animals does not mean there are no harmful effects. Just because you don’t feel the negative side effects does not mean it’s not doing anything harmful the instant it’s in your body. Just like there is a dark side to coffee, there is a dark side to cacao. It is an unjustly brought up super food fueled by greed
The truth is that the benefits do not outweigh the negatives. Cacao is poisonous (the bean, not the fruit which is less common in products). It is bad for the liver, can lower life span, and has lead to heart failure.
The Mayans used this for medical reasons and also did not consume this regularly. I imagine for good reason. Even if it is just a tea spoon. I assume some people are more tolerant, but it’s still bad. All of a sudden the processed stuff is starting to sound better, but only as a treat.
From my experience with cacao powder I learned you have to eat it 10 hours before going to sleep in order for the therobromine to get out of your blood stream. I consumed the cacao powder it in the afternoon and evening and after two weeks I was exhausted and could barely stay awake during the day. Once I researched it and found the theobromine issue I added cacao to my breakfast, drinking it or adding it to oatmeal, and I began to sleep well again. So…you really have to have cacao or dark chocolate before noon to prevent it from really messing up your sleep patterns and making you miserable.
where is the differenece joyous health, your comparison was between chocolate processed bars and raw cacao???
THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS CACAO powder IS TORRIFIED AND RAW IS RAW!!!!
Thomas how about a video on the benefits of fasting in relation to meditation
Great video! Can you talk about the benefits of raw fermented cacao vs raw cacoa? Or is all raw cacoa naturally fermented?
What this video sounds like to me: djdnxkdbdkdk. I am too stupid to understand this��
The question should always be, is it edible raw! strait from the tree?
Guys: cacao is a seed, a fruit ok? Raw cacao so is the seed, the “bean” that can be eat without his husk (cacao nibs f.e.). Cocoa powder is the result of a large industrial process, and do not contain cocoa butter anymore. So, cocoa powder has less fat, but also less antioxidants, less fibre and minerals then the “cacao nibs or cacao beans”.
I suggest you to read this article, from the International Cocoa Organization, not Wikipedia. Please, focus on the STEP 8 of this article. Now you know that, cocoa powder is the result a large industrial process. Raw cacao is the bean, the seed or the nib.
https://www.icco.org/about-cocoa/processing-cocoa.html
Is cacao good for anxiety depression and digestive issues due to anxiety and depression I hate antidepressants
Is this mashed up chocolate or this this like that powder that u use to make a drink
sorry for bad eng
Is cacao safe for eczema since you mentioned that theobromine has a lot of good benefits in the body?
The video was so impressive and informative..thanks for the knowledge..from INDIA
Thanks, this information was pretty informative. I wonder if there is still more information to discover.
so how many squares of 90% or 100% dark chocolate per day is safe to eat?
Any concerns about heavy metals? I’ve read reports of cadmium and lead in cacao.
Your beauty is mesmerizing. Good presentation. Helpful and you’re a kind hearted soul. Your partner is a lucky man. God bless x
I have a grandma she boil cacao every morning and drink it then work in the farm every day she lived 100 years.
I add it to overnight oats I don’t crave chocolate anymore:)
I have a question I’m very confused because I have cacao with brown colour and not sweet of course and I have the dark cacao, so is the two of them a good cacao, and the bad one is it the one that we put in the milk??
At what percentage of dark chocolate are you talking about? Starting at 70%? 78%? 80%?..or maybe something as low as 60%?
Wow i never think about that. Man this kids over ther are stubit but 5he parents must tel them ther georges
+Thomas DeLauer Can raw cacao powder be toxic if taken regularly in small amounts? If so, what’s the most you should take per day? Thanks for the upload.
When ever I eat cocoa organic, what ever. I feel soo sluggish and tired.. not worth it for me.
You do realize that you said when adenosine attach to adenosine receptors it blocks fatigue. That’s what you said if you replay it. Iam assuming you meant to say caffeine blocks fatigue at that particular moment. You should clarify so you won’t confuse the layperson.
I just pour some cocoa powder into my protein shake, is that wrong?
coffee is clean energy. what ppl seem to forget is that they say sugar is bad thats in candy. But thats not sugar. Its a false claim. High fructose corn syrup is what in the candy bars and sodas. If you ever have real sugar in a soda, which you can grab the mexican glass coca colas, and see it has real sugar in your local grocery store. It wont even hurt your teeth. Coffee is natural, if you get organic coffee. But then its what you put in it. Try with mct oil and stevia, and a tablespoon of butter, and you can even add the cacao. Its pretty tasty and completely fine that way. Theyve even found sugar is not what keeps you up at night.
Side question. I like to eat dates with coconut. But, it always upsets my stomach. I’m not sure if it is the combination or the dates or the coconut meat. Any thoughts?
I’m so confused >.< I have tried both raw cocoa and just regular cocoa and they both made me feel the same and plus I was not paying top dollar for the raw because "it has more nutrition" what a bunch of bull shyt especially the minerals like potassium, calcium and magnesium or any of the antioxidants are destroyed by heat:P they are all heat stable. Just cause something is raw doesn't mean its healthy to eat it that way. So people please just save your money and don't buy into all this raw natural food hype its all mostly just a bunch of consumer demand capitalistic bull! And just a total waste of money..
Sank you for this information. Just wish I saw this before I ordered cocoa capsule which is priced 1000% more in comparison to raw cacao powder. Thank you and God bless you with salvation.
There is lead (Pb) in most commercial chocolate bars, the higher the chocolate content, the higher the Pb concentration:
http://edition.cnn.com/2016/03/25/health/chocolate-lead-test/index.html
https://www.asyousow.org/our-work/environmental-health/toxic-enforcement/lead-and-cadmium-in-food/
I eat tons of chocolate and no other excess Pb/Cd containing sources, and test high for both Pb/Cd….
This “expert” thinks cocaine is natural, the plant is natural
I eat 25g 100% dark chocolate daily which is about 1 ounce and I can confirm that it DOES indeed lower stress and boost energy.
Ate 100 percent cacao bar a while back and it wired me up in an unbelievable way. I loved it
How about kidney??? Too much dark chocolate could lead to oxalate concentration in kidney….Well that was adviced by my GP.
Dark chocolate has anandamide in it which is a cannabinoid linked to pleasure reward systems. That’s why it’s pleasurable. Theobromine is just a small part of it.
Does 90% dark chocolate in the morning coffee can break fasting
So by the same principle is that why eating my blueberry’s with yogurt in the morning is not a good idea? Given the very reason I’m eating tons of blueberry’s is for their anti-oxidant benefits
so you talk about dark chocolate in general. what cocao % should you go for? 50%? 75%?
Wonder how many mg of theobromine is in 2tbs of raw cocao nibs?
According to nutritional data self,dark choclolate has 43 grams of fat in 100 g bar not 60 g or more as you say.Still far too much though.
I like it.. they have bars in Europe where people straight up do it on the tables and stuff. Stop being fucking ass holes. Just because something that changes your mood doesn’t necessarily have health benefits means it needs to be illegal.
How much fat/cocao butter or added oils were in the chocolate in the story? Fat definitely reduces insulin sensitivity.
Great vid very informative!!������.!! kindly please can you also do one on chest fat loss pleease?! thank you…☺
I add it to my smoothie with fair life lactose free milk. You think that impedes the absorbing of antioxidants?
Do you know if Theobromine has any affect on the adrenal glands? I know with caffeine it does causing cortisol to get released. I haven’t noticed any stress after eating cacao at all, but was curious if you knew.
Great information! Could you please explain (by way of example) as to how insulin sensitivity can be a positive (benefits, etc…) and how it can also be a bad thing (and how can we know if we are too insulin sensitive). Thank you; you made this point on your video and I would like to learn more about it. Also, if you could explain more about the emerging science of how theobromine affects your genes. Thank you!
I don’t bake. Where can I buy raw cacao and what can I put it in? Fruit shake?
Love it, thanks for the explanation, didn’t know about milk protein preventing absorbing anti-oxidants ��
I never noticed until now that us canadians really do sound how americans think we do, we really do have a slight accent lmboo how we pronounce certain words,kinda cool tbh
Nothing to do with cocoa and cacao (both of which I love), but your hair is amazing!
I have been using “Viva Naturals” Cacao Powder Organic. I hear the term raw being used with relation to the proper type of cacao powder, but my package does not actually have the word raw in writing. Can someone tell me if this is a Rob version simply by the fact that it is labeled organic? Thank you.
On the subject of cacao, I just watched Gabriel Kalei Bocanegra, have you seen it? Who is right on this subject? When researching such foods, the contradictions can be so confusing and disheartening, not to mention time consuming. It makes it so difficult to know who to have faith in. ������
Super helpful beautiful young lady also. So I see all these trendy 60, 70, 80, 90% chocolate bar/ wafer things at the normal grocery store (non health food store) I notice most are using Cocoa, not Cacoa, so these would not be as healthy then???
I definitely would add a few teaspoons of organic raw cacao to my cup of coffee and sugar free non-dairy almond milk plus zero calorie sweetener to make sugar free healthy mocha.
so it is better to drinking kefir with cacao powder so the probiotics don’t get destroyed from the stomach acid? (as it spends less time in the stomach) the taste is bitter sour though.
I ordered some raw cocao nibs. Is one tbs enough a day to feel health benefits? I am concerns about being jittery though!
Question: if you are adding honey to sweeten anyway 1) what’s wrong with candy bars and 2) what’s wrong with the alkali process using potassium carbonate and LESS sweetener?
I hope to God that i’m NOT! shooting myself in the foot because on AUG 21ST I started blending 1 ounce of Ghirarddelli 100% unsweetened dark chocolate with 1 cup of silk unsweetened coconut milk and a lil raw honey. once daily to hopefully start reverseing inflammation and oxidation in the body along with eliminating the majority of inflammatory foods what I can say is that an hour or so after my drink I feel elated like I can fly or wanna run through a brick wall like a SUPERHERO! wonder if that’s good or bad?
I made a chia seed pudding with cacao powder and heavy whipping cream. I don’t use any sweetener. I like it a lot.
I love chocolate! I eat raw vegan organic chocolate. The theobromine make everything feel okay again and I don’t drink and it is the only drug I do. I do yoga and all the other things but that isn’t enough in this exhausting depression world.
They’re lying! Nobody in Europe was doing that. Only Americans are obsessed with food like that pmsl
Such an awesome natural antioxidant probably the most powerful natural antioxidant. Contact me for raw cacao powder supplies.
That bliss feeling is from the compound known as anandamide.
Over consumption of caffeine ruined my health, not from coffee but from heavily caffeinated pre work out supplements. Caused heart issues and severe constipation because of excess urination. I am now very sensitive to coffee and even chocolate. Not a health food in any way. But so difficult to stop consuming!:\
can I just add a teaspoon of cacao powder to a glass of hot water and drink?
Where to buy Coco Loko or any other Snorting Chocolate online in India Sir?
Watching this video while drinking a huge cup of my special cocoa. A full oz. Of dark chocolate baking bar, butter, mct oil, stevia and heavy whipping cream. Sometimes I add a bit of turmeric.
Speaking about insulin sensitivity, a new study found that a protein-rich diet, while promoting weight loss, does not enhance insulin sensitivity. Enhanced insulin sensitivity can decrease risks for diabetes.
http://time.com/4526448/high-protein-diet-weight-loss-insulin/?xid=newsletter-brief
One potential parameter is the type of protein animal protein (inc whey protein) is not as healthy as plant protein.
First of all anything that has been turn into powder is no longer raw period. You either dried the cocoas and turn it in to powder by grinding the the dried cocoa beans into powder, or roasted.
Great video can you make a video on your thoughts on alkaline water?
Cocaine is not natural you idiot, cocaine is extracted through a rigorous chemical process. Chocolate on the other hand is a simple fermentation and roast. This lady is clearly uneducated and stupid
They sell Raw Cacao at Walmart a huge one pound bag! I blend 2 tablespoons of it with soy milk and chocolate protein powder and it makes a great after workout shake!
Great content, you know your stuff and your inner glow shows from all the joyous health! Thank you for sharing and dropping the knowledge, this is exactly the information I was looking for.
It is very addicting for me. I react with a lot of cravings if I have chocolate (because it has so much sugar), and I can not eat a little. I have to finish the entire package when is open.
Cocoa power, it is way more addictive for me.
I love that it gives me instant energy, but I had to stop because I will not want to eat anything else.
a doctor who claim that cocaine is natural is not a doctor for me. i rather snort this fucking thing than let her decide for a medication for me.
you didn’t compare them in this video. this is a trap, I don’t like it.
I just ate half chocolate. I should have seen your video before that!
I used a cup of raw cacao in warm almond milk and now I’m buzzing
Wow ok… i am very surprised with this video… Ive been to numerous cacao, shamanic ceremonies in Costa rica for example. My friends are permaculture master specialized in cacao. They say cacao is medicinal, highly sacred over there, opens the heart, they said it is the blood of Mother earth in traditional shamanic lineage. They bath their babies when they born in cacao and also after people die… I have bits of adrenal fatigue but cacao just always helps me with everything. I have the best cacao quality, its raw cacao nuts melted in rock for 24 hours, all the medecine is in the fat… so… maybe there is more to the picture? for sure, i always listen to your videos and agree with everything normally, i know youre coming from somewhere legitimate but i just cant stop eating cacao, it helped me transition from coffee so this one is really hard to swallow:( But i guess you mean it in a sense not to overdose it… i only consume 1 tbsp a day but feel fine the days i skip it
Every time she said “Raw cacao” I heard “rock a cow” and thought about cow tipping ��♂️
Since when is cocaine natural? The bitch said cocaine is natural
They have clubs in Europe that serve not ALCOHOLIC drinks they serve pure coco. I lived in italy back in 93 they were doing it then ��
This dude seems like a dunce. Cacao is orally active and you can get it at the super market. Also what’s this “reporting”? “Some clubs in some places..” Yea, I’m sure you didn’t make that up. Ever wodner what’s wrong with boomers? Well they’ve been watching this kind of television for decades, turning their brains to mush.
but how do you fix raw cacao powder? What can you make with raw cacao and how to go about making it? That should be your next video!
Btw I didn’t have any raw cacao yet but I feel like loving you already! Thx for the vid
Interesting! I love making my own version of Mexican hot chocolate and chocolate fudge using a mix of organic raw cacao from Peru and high quality Divine brand cocoa powder (silkier and darker).
I have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and rather than losing weight, I need the nutrients, deal with chronic fatigue and am a bit sensitive to coffee!
It’s like just because I have Ehlers-Danlos, my body works like I’m a different alien species, lol.
I’m interested in the genetic aspect too considering EDS is a genetic collagen condition.
Thanks for posting! I am pretty in love with chocolate^_^
Fuck it lets use Chocolate powder and dry up energy drinks and collect the powdered stuff and LETS GET HIGH!
you are very beautiful and the video was very beautiful too, though this is the only video i have watched i think there would be great content on that
GREAT Video!! BUT….you forgot to mention it needs to be organic. You also forgot to mention the cocoa powder IS very healthy, but raw cacao is better.
I always buy Organic Cocoa powder. But, thanks to you I am switching to organic raw cacao! And yes, I do sweeten it with organic raw honey, organic coconut palm sugar and/or organic stevia.
What if on Hershey’s front label it says 100% cacao but on the ingredients list it says cocoa??
I don’t like the new editing. The normal you is just perfect. Too much audio gating was used. Sometimes choppy sounding.
Wonderful info. Thank you
Occasionally i may use honey, but mainly eat them bitter!
I got used to it:-)
it’s actually only bitter when first hits your taste buds, but once you chew into a mush the bitterness significantly subsides…
Most people avoid bitter foods, but according to the ayurvedic science of the six kinds of Taste and mental States and qualities they relate to, bitter taste (opposite of sweet) builds discipline energy in the brain and nervous system and balances out too much Water element… has the quality of drying.
No matter how much I was exercising, eating all healthy fats, A ideal Pescatarian/Vegetarian diet and staying away from sugar, dairy and wheat I was SO DAMN FRUSTRATED about my belly still appearing bloated a lot.
Soon as I started eating a handful of Cacao nibs daily
(deliberately raw) I noticed my belly started shrinking quickly!
Sounds Crazy, but true!
That is not true. Please do not get confused. First: Cacao and Cocoa are the same, it is just a language thing. Nobody knows who started with that confusion. Are we going to start calling cafeé instead of coffee, or maíz instead of corn when those are raw? If you want to be like a scientist in English, Cacao really is when the seed is alive, and if you research more you will realize that in the process, all cocoa beans die! Secondly: what is the definition of Raw? There is not a standard or a legal document written by nobody…is it the temperature? I tell you something, during the process of making cocoa powder, the temperature surpasses 118 F for sure, Now, what about the safety, to get cocoa powder or cacao powder, the beans go through a long process in not sterilized environments, so, the roasting is the bacteria-killing step, keep safe, don’t eat if you are not sure what the process is…Also, the roasting is the best, because it triggers all the aroma and flavor of the cacao. Do you think you get more nutrients and health benefits? Wrong, there is not a standard and actually to measure that is really, really hard with nowadays science…So, please research more and do get confused!
Always been a salty guy. Would occasionally put some nibs on some foods. Never one of those choco-olics. Cheers love
Milk proteins prevent you to absorb antioxidans? Wtf! What is real? What is life?
Ones saying you can absorb everything just fine others say some there are alot of food combinations that you shouldn’t mix.. Whoo to listen?????
I don’t know if you are aware how often you say “you see…”.
Hi peggyyy i would like 2 ask u what do u think abt coffee without cafeine?:)
Thanks for explaining! Off to Sprouts to get some today for my bulletproof coffee!
Wow great video! I feel abit heavy from too much cacao but a teaspoon works.
cacao lower blood pressure so how to make cacao to be medicine of blood pressure
The “healthline” website evidences that studies are conflicted and inconclusive as to whether milk protein blocks antioxidant activity and/or their health benefits. It advises people not to worry about consuming dairy with antioxidant-rich foods. Go ahead and consume them together, as desired, it says.
great info, very thorough was at the grocery store last night debating buying Cocoa Powder or Cacao since the ingredients looked so similar! (i went with Cacao). thanks so much! love your positive energy and vibes, by the way ��✌��
If I add boiling water to the cacao will the effects of it diminish?
Would raw cacao nibs be alright to eat if you have chronic gastritis? Love your videos!
I’m a cacao boy. I’ve got the night on my side, and I’m wanted.
Dead or alive. ��
I gave up monster energy drinks.. I’m pretty sure the weird taurine guarana stuff is why… it made me feel extremely weird, so I have no desire to try it.
Thanks For the explanation. By the way, you have pretty hair!
I bought organic cacao powder which not rows, but it has label that says it can expose to cadmium which causes cancer. What is your thoughts about that.
My namE is Darren.I am 8 years olde. I will tri this now.��
I have a question for you. I’ve noticed your promotion of coffee. As a Mormon, I cannot do coffee. What I have done is gotten some cheap baking cocoa and added that to a mug with some heavy cream and or almond milk with some stevia for sweetness. My question is, less the fats would you say this cocoa would be a good subsititue for the benefits of the cup of coffee?
What a beautifully pronounced concise speech with reference to Cacao, I love it and you are beautiful too. and to even research it, is wonderful we have peeps like you to take the trouble, Thank you so much..hunn. Have a nice day.
I liked your comments hammering the bad side of sugar and milk. However you pointed out that coco is heated and loses some nutrition. So much more nutrition is lost by heating the cacao butter. What kind of fat is cacao butter? Is it like coconut a water soluble saturated fat? Please advise. Why not just chew on the cacao beans to get the nutrition first hand?
Peggy, thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge with us. I’ve gotten so much out of your videos in such a short time, it’s crazy! I’ve loved chocolate since I was a kid, but boy oh boy, does it ever give me a negative reaction! It makes me feel like I’m on edge, actually. Sometimes I get a little headache or feel jittery, while at the same time I’m also feeling euphoric and silly, like laughing a lot! I avoid it overall. I really like carob, though I haven’t been eating it either, mostly because it’s not as ubiquitous as chocolate. I’ve been researching it, and supposedly carob Is much healthier for you. Especially if you get the whole pod, or find raw organic carob powder. But I’m curious what you think about it!
What if we will add protine powder (whey protin) + milk + cacao pwder. Is it healthy? How about absorbing antioxidant in this case?
I only have a one dollar bill, will it still work without the hundred??
05:52 but what chocolate bar, dark one? mm im curious about the genes make video if u havent pls im gna start watching ur channel
Thank you. I try to avoid all chocolate ( though I do love it), mostly because processed chocolate gives me severe headaches. Years ago my husband would give me a box on Valentines day (when dating ha ha)… anyway, I always got sick after!!! So, if I do have any, always dark organic…But generally rarely ever eat.
I was buying my cacao from David Wolfes site longevitywarehouse.com for years because I really trust him. But they have bad customer service and shipping is so high. I don’t think they even have an office phone number anymore. It’s been impossible to get ahold of anyone from the company for help. I now question the product quality too… looking for other options. Any ideas? David Wolfe suggests his cacao is the purest on the market. Any other brands with good quality? Raw and organic.
I basically lived on nothing but chocolate milk for my entire childhood lol
I sniff chocolate all time, I unrap a big block of cadbury dairy milk chocolate sniff the shit out of it before I chew the shit out of it ��
i cant belive what i put my body through. when i was a teenager i would drink chocolate milk. Thank Father God in heaven for wonderful people like Peggy, I pray that God keeps richly blesses you. if these “a” wipes had their way id still be slowly killing myself. these poor cows im sorry but for me chocolate reminds me of milk. i h*!e what has happened to these cows. please people please check into this. if you eat meat and or dairy, demand antibiotic& hormone free
Oh, its another “pandemic” what’s next, chocolate tide pods?
My daughter gets really bad headaches from dark chocolate (vegan for 4 years)
Do your self a favor and check into using organic Stevia, from the leaves only, for your Cacao sweetener.
hi Peggy..loving all your great info! and following it! I have 2 questions: recently read somewhere in the universe..lol that citrus fruits are irritating to the gut?? I am guessing this is not true..I am drinking my lemon water and feel fine..can u clarify? AlsoI was thinking of sprouting Broccoli..heard from you and others that this is really healthy..However, I wonder, would this cause bloating? I have an issue with that..Sometimes broccoli and cauliflower cause bloating for me..thanks so much for any info….ps..love the cacoa info too!
I have chocolate almost everyday. because I sell chocolate at school and I keep grabbing the bars and eating them -_
Im deing of laughter right now ���� And I go to the doctors because I ate way to much chocolate and I got really sick ����
I used to really love dark chocolate. But the last couple of years I noticed that for some reason it is making me sick. Every time I eat dark chocolate, even if it is a small amout, it makes me feel nauseous and I have vertigo. So I just don’t eat it any more.
Also it is literally the worst food for my gastritis.
Hershey’s is killer in a cup of hot cocoa made with xylitol. with 1/2 and 1/2… milk…. Very Keto
Hi I just bought the Lucy Bee organic cacao powderis it ok to put say a teaspoon of this in my two and a half year olds porridge in the mornings? I read cacao powder contains caffeineis this right? Would the cacao not be good for him? Hope you can help, many thanks
Im a bit addicted to chocolate, if thats a bar or cacao powder with plant milk or even in cooking. I loved it since I was a kid and its kinda hard to go away from it. That said, I am aware that it not the healthiest if not taken in moderation. I believe having a bit now and then won’t harm, we also need to enjoy the little pleasures that life has offered us. I love fruit, but…it’s not chocolate…hard to compare. Thx Peggy for your input…keep it up!
I have tried organic cacao and I dont like its better taste in my smoothie..I bought some dutched process cocoa powder and the taste is much better, but I have heard that organic cacau is more nutritious than dutched process..so I am a bit in doubt about that..
Eating 100% Dark Chocolate right now. Only 8g carbs per 100g bar.
Can I put you in my pocket and take you out every now and again for advice?
I have the opposite experience to what you’re saying, with cacaco powder fir me actually hepls it helps me alot. Positive effects on my digestion and body inflammation overall:) Lol
Thank you for making this video and spreading the cacao magic, Thomas!
alkali-processed “dutched” cocoa is not as healthy (See Update on
Chocolate for the graph and Healthiest Chocolate Fix for some other
chocolate comparisons). Dutched cocoa can have as few as half the
phytonutrients, but that just means you have to use twice as much.
Alkalized or “Dutched”the process removes some of the chemistry that
is thought to be responsible for the cardiovascular health benefits of
the food: flavanol (flavan-3-ol) antioxidants.
What is the least amount you can take daily for all the benefits?
Watching this video gave me insight into what is really happening to me. I have found that I love the way I feel when I drink a raw cacao drink in the mornings. However, when I have symptoms of pms or pmdd, it’s best I stay away from it. It increases my irritability and anger.
Thanks for this clarifying video. I used to be so addicted to chocolate, but since going WFPB, I’ve eliminated chocolate from my diet and haven’t even attempted raw cacao because I know how addicting it can be. With all of my health issues, I am just better off not using it period. But now I know why thanks to you!
Excellent footage on the reveal of a blind study of decaf vs caffeinated coffee. Highly recommended… https://youtu.be/MCYcwqXda1s
