I keep fuking every hr when i take choklate been taking 4 bars of choklate for 2 yrs
Can I use Cadbury Hot chocolate to replace Caffeine or this bad with the amount of sugar in it
Doesn’t chocolate also cause diabetes yet can prevent it or treat it
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..
Got used to eating 100% Cacao, bakers chocolate. 0% sugar, got it!
If I’d have to give away every junk food for chocolate I would
It’s my favourite “unhealthy” food and is always my happy food and lucky I don’t eat alot I eat a few cubes and leave it.
This is terrible, if you follow this advice you’re going to get diabetes, who the F posts this shit? It should be taken down. Raw, unprocessed, fermented Cacoa beans offer all the benefits she’s talking about, not processed cocoa used in chocolate bars or gourmet chocolate with milk, sugar and other chemicals added… big difference.
I’m injecting Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup into my blood stream
Thanks For the explanation. By the way, you have pretty hair!
I just bought the organic Cacao is that good I got it on Amazon no additives or anything 2p calories
can I just add a teaspoon of cacao powder to a glass of hot water and drink?
Cocoa can be just as good as long as it is organic with nothing added”
It is sooo True. I am from Ghana, the second cocoa producing country in the world after Cote D’voir. I can’t explain to you the Divine nature of cocoa. Thank you Dr Gus.
Chocolate has sugar, which causes the chemical reaction; the sense of happiness.
Could I eat cocoa and cacao the same day both in low amounts…let’s say about 1 tablespoon each?
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?????
What if we will add protine powder (whey protin) + milk + cacao pwder. Is it healthy? How about absorbing antioxidant in this case?
Title: Health benefits of chocolate

This cocoa cracked me up
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???
Thanks a lot Dr Gus for a great video and for the advice, information and tips
Thanks, One question: I read many articles that ‘saturated fat’ is bad cholesterol, whereas dark-chocolate has 18% ‘saturated fat’ (70+ % cocoa ).. it is contradicting the statement on cholesterol? Please clarify. Thanks.

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
Seems to be conflicting info on if cacao bean is a so called superfood. As far as I can see animals know to not touch the stuff. But hey were humans right! why would we base any bit of our diet around what animals do.. well because for those of you who haven’t realized we are animals.:) do your own research people /ANIMALS!
Cocoa powder is good as long as its organic. You forgot to mention that. Also raw cacao is much healthier than cocoa powder.
Philippine Islands NO NO NO Cocoa beans MUST be roasted same with Coffee beans!
Philippine Islands NO NO NO Cocoa beans MUST be roasted same with Coffee beans!
found 95% cocoa chocolate by Lindt in my supermarket today, it didnt taste so great, but really ellevated my mood
Can this really cause birth defect it said on the label that I bought
Don’t add skimmed milk! It contains carbs and sugar. I add soya milk, the brand that has zero carbs and zero sugar, as some brands of soya milk add sugar.
I have organic Cacao powder which has a bit more nutrients than cocoa powder they both taste just as chocalaty!
sugar free soya yogurt with 2 spoonfuls of cacao powder is fuckin addictive!
its also high in fibre, makes ur poo long and slippery if you have 3 large spoonfuls everyday.
you didn’t compare them in this video. this is a trap, I don’t like it.
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
Cocoa is amazing period! I recommend it to lift up your mood, improve digestion and keep your skin looking healthy. Drink cocoa/ chocolate!
What else do they eat? I love learning about the tribal societies. All they eat is whole foods without the hormones antibiotics pesticides etc.
Cacao will not work that good. If you’re eating animal products.
I got me a BIG BAG OF THIS STUFF….I mix it with spirulina and protein powder for taste….ima start taking every day
I love cocoa! I drink it twice a day. no wonder I have low blood pressure, and feel terrific! now I have to show this video to my husband to convince him that cocoa is a food group:) heheee
how about CACAO, which is chocolate in its RAW form before heat, and sweeteners? thats what i have everyday, simply some raw cacao with coffee or tea, ovaltine etc. Therapeutic level of magnesium for the heart, and the highest ANTIOXIDANT on the planet. This guy must be a chocolate salesman lol
not the coco ingredients % are importaint look for a real organic raw low temperture processed cacao,Never use milk from the cow use almond milk that’s better or rice milk. i eat a chocolate that’s the first in the world that proceses the chocolate from bean to chocolate at max 31 celcius ( about 87 F ) like to learn more about real raw organic cacao just check out this facebook wall Xocolatlvita there are brochures about choco and diabetes,arthritis, heart health and more.
Like this video!
can i just add hot water and drink grained chop home made cocoa
I could really just listen to her say ‘pro-cess’ all day. Love Canadians. Great video. Thank you.
I’m eating a Hersey bar while watching this. I know it’s bad and it’s the dark chocolate that’s good, but still I’m hoping I get some benefits. Lol
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.
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
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
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.
Look at The HEAVY he Eat Chocolate Every day Now Look at his Heath
when i learned of it i started eating regular. I take Simlo for cholesterol.
Nothing to do with cocoa and cacao (both of which I love), but your hair is amazing!
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..
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 ✌
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!!!!
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??
I made a chia seed pudding with cacao powder and heavy whipping cream. I don’t use any sweetener. I like it a lot.
Love it, thanks for the explanation, didn’t know about milk protein preventing absorbing anti-oxidants

This doesn’t benefit the obesity epidemic, and it certainly doesn’t decrease child labour on the Ivory coast, Ghana and Coomera, so, no, I won’t listen to good news about bad habits.
That bliss feeling is from the compound known as anandamide.
Hi how to consume cacao in raw form in order to get health benefits
I add it to my smoothie with fair life lactose free milk. You think that impedes the absorbing of antioxidants?
How much teaspoons of raw cacao powder should I consume per day?
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.
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
Thanks Dr for more info God bless you always as an instrument using by Almighty God to aid people who are sick
Philippin Islands NO NO NO Cocoa beans MUST be roasted same with Coffee beans!
Thank Dr. Gus! I was wondering if taking it at night will keep me up? How much will you recommend to take at night? Also, will it give me jitters day or night? Thanks in advance.
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.
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.
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! We created a similar video on the health benefits of dark chocolate. Check it out here: https://youtu.be/2FWRbxSk07s
Green & Black’s is now GMO in North America, still organic in Europe.
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..
Every time she said “Raw cacao” I heard “rock a cow” and thought about cow tipping ♂️
Your beauty is mesmerizing. Good presentation. Helpful and you’re a kind hearted soul. Your partner is a lucky man. God bless x
He forgot to mention the high fibre!
3 spoonfuls of cocoa is enough to give you huge poo, which slides out easily, no constipation. I mix the cocoa with 500 ml of low sugar yogurt.
cacao lower blood pressure so how to make cacao to be medicine of blood pressure
Doctors.dont like.to heard these wonderful health information because.people will not get sick often and doctors loose money by seeing their clinics empty of patients.
Documentary. The Dark Side Of Chocolate
I think this should let the cat out of the bag.
I don’t bake. Where can I buy raw cacao and what can I put it in? Fruit shake?
Philippine Islands NO NO NO Cocoa beans MUST be roasted same with Coffee beans!
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?
Excellent video, Dr. Sarah Speck, this is Translation co. we work in: https://www.facebook.com/MADITRANSLATION
Such an awesome natural antioxidant probably the most powerful natural antioxidant. Contact me for raw cacao powder supplies.
What if on Hershey’s front label it says 100% cacao but on the ingredients list it says cocoa??
What is the least amount you can take daily for all the benefits?
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!
Is he a trustable man or just another cocoa share holder in SA, hmmmmmmmm….
Reduces chances of diabetes by 31%?? I’m already on my way to the grocery store right now
I used a cup of raw cacao in warm almond milk and now I’m buzzing
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.
Thanks for explaining! Off to Sprouts to get some today for my bulletproof coffee!
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 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.
This video has absolutely no info there is good and bad chocolate
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.
If I add boiling water to the cacao will the effects of it diminish?
Dr. Gus you’re right about all the benefits in cocoa you have mention, Believe it or not, eating cocoa powder daily is one of the healthiest things you can do. Cocoa or cocoa powder improves heart health, fights oxidation, rejuvenates us, and much more. Even the Cocoa Powder Increases male sex duration.
I’m working in a company that we produce Cocoa Liquor, Cocoa Butter, Cocoa Cake, Cholate in different variety, and Cocoa Powder.
And I have tried the Cocoa Powder myself and I have seen a big change in my life.
Great video! Can you talk about the benefits of raw fermented cacao vs raw cacoa? Or is all raw cacoa naturally fermented?
Hershey’s is killer in a cup of hot cocoa made with xylitol. with 1/2 and 1/2… milk…. Very Keto
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.
Do your self a favor and check into using organic Stevia, from the leaves only, for your Cacao sweetener.
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.
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
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.
A word of warning from a personal experience. Some months ago I stopped drinking coffee and decided to try some raw organic cacao powder and cocoa powder from my local health food store. I drank 4 cups of cacao powder a day for 3 days and then tried cocoa powder for the same duration. A couple of days later after consuming these powders I became severely constipated that serious that I had to make a trip to my local hospital. Now I know this affects people differently but personally I will never drink cacoa/cocao powder ever again.
Great info as always however, you should include people of color in your videos. We watch as well. Thank you!!!
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 literally ate a whole bar of 90% Cocoa canadian dark chocolate
Medicare provides medical care for people in the USA that are 66 years old and older. For a healthy person in their late 60s it cost about $500 per month. And costs increase as a person gets older. Plus there are additional costs for people that have a big drug bill. Some people can not afford to buy their prescription drugs.
A person can drop out of Medicare and get Medicare Advantage but they still have to pay Medicare about $200 per month. And with Medicare Advantage they may die due to lack of proper medical care. And they may suffer due to lack of proper medical care.

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.
hits blunt Does this mean fat people have longer life-spans?
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.

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!
