Health Hack #52: Go Cacao Crazy
Chocolate lovers - today is your day!
You can enjoy your beloved treat while boosting your health. Cacao delivers nutritional goodness without all of the inflammatory, insulin-spiking effects of sugar. And this beloved antioxidant-rich cocoa bean delivers 80% of the recommended daily intake of copper, which is essential for red blood cell production, and manganese which helps optimize digestion of protein and amino acid.
Choose wisely and chocolate away!
80% or more of dark cacao is best. You can buy and try or make your own. Here is my Amazon Dark Chocolate favorite. Eat a square of melt down and use in your favorite baked goods.
You can also try some of my other favorite cacao-infused recipes:
