Organic unshelled cocoa beans, 250 g

Product detailed description

Cocoa beans contain a rich spectrum of beneficial effects for physical health and a fresh mind.

• Flavonoids are substances with antioxidant activity, meaning they protect the body from the effects of free radicals. They have a number of beneficial effects, for example, together with calcium, they contribute to the harmonious function of the heart and blood vessels and to maintaining normal blood pressure. Their content decreases significantly when cocoa beans are roasted. In addition to cocoa beans, they can also be found in fruits, vegetables, tea, and red wine.

• Anthocyanins are natural purple pigments. They are also contained, for example, in blueberries or acai, where they significantly contribute to the beneficial effect on the human body.

• Thanks to their iron and magnesium content , they contribute to reducing fatigue. Specific substances that also contribute to this effect are purine compounds - theobromine and, to a small extent, caffeine. Both substances have quite similar effects due to their relationship, but the effect of theobromine is about ten times weaker than the effect of caffeine. Therefore, we do not have to worry about "overstimulation of the body" or a certain "addictiveness" with cocoa beans or other snacks made from them, as is the case with coffee, for example.

On the contrary - cocoa beans and high-quality pure chocolate induce a pleasant feeling of physical fitness and mental alertness.

• Thanks to their magnesium, calcium and potassium content , they contribute to the normal function of the nervous system, psychological processes and neurotransmission. Also, substances called bioactive amines benefit the harmonious function of neurotransmitters (transmitters of nerve impulses in the brain), they also participate in creating "feelings of well-being".

• thanks to the content of magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and calcium, they contribute to maintaining the normal condition of bones and teeth, as well as to normal muscle function and healthy protein formation

• Thanks to their iron content , they contribute to the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin, and thus to the normal transport of oxygen in the body

• thanks to their iron content , they contribute to the normal function of the immune system

• thanks to their calcium content , they contribute to the normal function of digestive enzymes

• thanks to the content of magnesium, phosphorus, calcium and iron, they contribute to normal energy metabolism

• thanks to the content of magnesium, calcium and iron, they support healthy cell division

From the above, we can see that cocoa beans are a very good source of minerals - magnesium, phosphorus, iron and potassium.
