Which Is Healthier Cocoa or Cacao?\u003c\/summary\u003e Cacao and cocoa both come from the same source but differ in processing, affecting their nutrient content. Cacao is generally considered to have more antioxidants and minerals than cocoa due to roasting reducing antioxidant content. Raw cacao beans have been found to have higher antioxidant activity and polyphenol content. Cacao powder has higher levels of flavanols than cocoa powder. However, the terms are often used interchangeably, and the nutrient content can vary depending on processing. Choose high-quality cacao products that are minimally processed and free from additives and sweeteners for the most health benefits.\u003c\/details\u003e \u003cdetails\u003e \u003csummary\u003e 2. What are the benefits of drinking raw cacao powder?\u003c\/summary\u003e Raw cacao powder is a rich source of antioxidants, which may assist in reducing the risk of chronic diseases. Raw Cacao powder also contains compounds that can improve mood, cognitive function, blood pressure, and exercise performance. Studies have shown that raw cacao powder can improve cognitive performance in healthy young adults and elderly people with mild cognitive impairment, and lower blood pressure in people with hypertension. It can also improve overall performance in trained athletes and increase muscle oxygenation in healthy young adults. To get the most health benefits, it's important to choose high-quality raw cacao products that are minimally processed and free from additives and sweeteners.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/details\u003e \u003cdetails\u003e \u003csummary\u003e3.

I love the taste of all the flavours, easy to prepare, not sweet, easy to drink! I love the packaging but keep breaking my nails opening the lids! Am I doing something wrong? Thinking I may have to decant into another container.

Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
I’m not usually a Matcha fan but the mint kicks in nicely to make this a mild & pleasant pick me up - the only downside is that when you get down towards the bottom of the cup, the mix gets powdery & I can’t finish it :(
