From an ad on Facebook: “My blood pressure dropped 12 points in 6 weeks. No pills. No side effects. Just one cup of this healthy hot chocolate.” – Margaret, 58

The science is clear: 700mg of cacao flavanols daily reduces blood pressure as effectively as common medications, but without the dizziness, fatigue, or drug interactions.
Even more shocking?

The type of cacao matters.
Not the dutched powder at the supermarket.
Not the sugar-laden hot chocolate.
But ceremonial-grade cacao, the same kind Peru’s Kuna people have drunk for centuries.

Here’s what researchers discovered:
37% lower risk of cardiovascular disease
4-5 point reduction in systolic blood pressure
20% improvement in arterial flexibility
11% increase in protective HDL cholesterol

But here’s the problem…
Most “healthy” cacao products are processed with high heat, destroying the very compounds your heart needs. The alkali process (dutching) eliminates up to 90% of beneficial flavanols.

Adding sugar negates the benefits entirely.

That’s why we source only ceremonial-grade cacao from small Peruvian farms.
Stone-ground at low temperatures. Never roasted.
Nothing added.
The result?
Each cup delivers:
700mg of pure flavanols (10x more than “dark chocolate”)
127mg of heart-healthy magnesium
40% theobromine for natural vasodilation

“It’s almost impossible to avoid heavy metals altogether. That’s why it’s crucial you know the best strategies for detoxifying your body.

“Some everyday foods have the power to help detoxify your body through a process called chelation. This means that heavy metals bind to a substance in order to move through and exit your system.

Both garlic and turmeric have chelation abilities, and they also have the ability to turn up your body’s detoxification genes.

Other foods that support heavy metal detoxification include:
-Broccoli sprouts or broccoli microgreens
-Cilantro
-Cruciferous vegetables”

Saw a presentation at https://www.usahealthupdates.com/yb/text/youthful-brain/16 where Dr Sam Walters says:
The enzyme diecetyl is put in many health foods to enhance flavour but it has a strong impact on the brain. While it strongly enhances the flavour of bland food, it passes through the blood-brain barrier and can cause memory decline. It can cause the creation of beta amyloid proteins, the tell-tale marker of Alzheimer’s disease.
