In modern day it is undeniably one of the nature's healthiest  ingredients; this Amazonian superfood is full of potent antioxidants (40  times more than blueberries), vitimins and minerals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn  contrast, non-organic cocoa and chocolate has been chemically processed  and roasted, destroying up to 90% of these vital antioxidants and  flavanols. Studies have also revealed that adding dairy blocks the  absorption of antioxidants in chocolate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eResearch shows that raw  cacao contains anti-inflammatory and heart protective antioxidants which  can help reduce the risk of strokes and improve blood circulation.  Other elements found in cacao can help prevent premature ageing, balance  hormones, improve digestion, combat fatigue and lower blood pressure. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the sweet to the savory, \u003ci\u003eThe Cacao Cookbook \u003c\/i\u003eis  packed with nutritious cacao recipes including breakfast smoothies, raw  brownies, snack bars, steak, ice cream and homemade beauty products.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Aster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44897295401189,"sku":"NP9781912023776","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/f984db43-ddc3-4541-a402-ab03006803b5.jpg?v=1767844236","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/cacao-cookbook-isbn-9781912023776","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
