Cacao is considered a superfood not only for its ability to lift one’s mood but also for the impressive nutritional profile it possesses. Grapes and cacao both contain the powerful antioxidant flavonoid, but cacao has a much higher concentration of it. Although the research is not yet definitive, there is a possibility that flavonoids like these could prevent diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s disease.

Additionally, cacao has been demonstrated to lower blood pressure, and there is some evidence that it may also increase longevity. Cacao is a wonderful food, but it does contain caffeine, and if you don’t want to have trouble sleeping and feel anxious, it’s probably not a good idea to consume the entire batch of it all at once.
