User Reviews for cocoa

I use webmd along with nih and the mayoclinic for info on supplements and prescription interactions.

This is an incident where WebMD is providing false information. Cacao contains no traceable amount of caffeine. It contains theobromine which is a closely related stimulant. I am allergic to caffeine, but take raw cacao supplements to stay alert and focused at my evening job. I have also found it has been working as an appetite suppressant, and a mood elevator.

Cut my foot off while camping. Mosquitos attacking stump. Applied powder, burned a little . No more bites. Thanks!

Cocoa has helped reduce brain fog helping me to think clearer, faster and also has improved short-term memory. After eating a small of amount of dark chocolate I feel as if the synapses of my brain are connecting the way they should. I also believe it helps with depression giving me a sense of well-being by reducing the stress that comes from trying to function through brain fog and short-term memory loss.

Use raw unheated peeled cacao beans (crillo variety). If unavailable, get unpeeled beans, soak 40 minutes, scrape off skin. Pulverize. Use 2 TBL per large mug.
