Many people are beginning to realize
the importance of living well and the health benefits of eating
wholesome organic foods. The movement is growing fast, as more and more
people learn about the vegan lifestyle and the advantages of consuming
raw foods. As such, we should take a closer look at the health benefits
that accompany consuming raw cacao (a very healthy and natural bean) and
using organically grown, pesticide free cacao nuts in vegan chocolates.
Your typical milk chocolate bar is a highly processed concoction
of milk byproducts, refined sugars, artificial flavorings, artificial
colorings, preservatives, and chemicals which contain only the smallest
amounts of cacao. It’s in the raw cacao seeds that we find the highest
levels of antioxidants, minerals and many other beneficial compounds
like flavonol, phenylethylamine, niacin, beta-carotene, calcium, lysine,
riboflavin, theobromine, thiamin and hundreds of other naturally
occurring compounds. So why do we eat unhealthy mass produced milk
chocolate when there are much healthier chocolate options available? -
In my opinion, few people know that there are healthier organic vegan
chocolates on market and even fewer know of the benefits of consuming
raw cacao.
Vegan chocolate, especially with high cacao content
has been shown to elevate mood, energize and stimulate the body, raise
high-density lipoproteins (aka: good cholesterol), increase serotonin
production in the brain, and has even been used by healers in Mexico to
help improve breathing and increase libido. A lot of these benefits (if
not all of these benefits) are lost when the cacao nuts are processed,
roasted at high temperatures, diluted and mixed with milk fats,
preservatives and other adulterants. That’s why Vegan Chocolates.com is
devoted to bringing you the best all-natural vegan chocolate chips on
the planet!
Vegan Chocolate dot com uses the finest ingredients
and highest quality cacao in their chocolate chips, which are grown
exclusively on Kona Kava Farm in Hawaii. We use their chips in almost
everything: Toss a few into a smoothie for an added bit of
deliciousness; after lunch, just eat them right out of the bag; and
dessert… oh… there are so many possibilities!
Our current
favorite is to use them in the famous double fudgy vegan brownies we
offer the recipe elsewhere on our website. Our chocolate chips are so
good that one of our staff members, who professes to be a connoisseur of
all things chocolate, refuses to believe that these are vegan chocolate
chips. Now that’s a testimonial!
We often hear that those who
have gone vegan have never felt better, healthier or more in tune with
their bodies. Strength and vitality have reportedly increased, all from
making a simple (and in this case; delicious) decision to eat more and
more raw foods. Add our delicious vegan chocolate products which use
all-natural organic raw cacao “into the mix”, and you can’t lose. We
have even had customers report that once they started to eat only vegan
foods and vegan chocolate, that cravings for chocolate have greatly
diminished. Could it have something to do with the all-natural organic
raw cacao used in making their chocolate chips? – We sure hope so! All
we know is that they’re the best bits of chocolaty goodness and that
they totally satisfy our occasional chocolate craving here at
Vegan Chocolate.
