I had an urge to indulge in some comfort sustenance tonight and I almost ate some raw mixed nuts, but I looked at the bag and thought about how nuts take about 1.5 hours to digest and decided against it. Instead I found some natural, unsweetened cocoa and added it to some juice; it was incredible. My craving was smoothed over by the natural nutrients of cocoa. Raw cocoa raises the level of serotonin in the brain, stimulates the secretion of endorphins, contains phenylethylamine which is also created within the brain and released when we are in love, anandamide aka the “bliss chemical”, antioxidants, essential fats, and minerals including magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium and manganese. Most of these things are killed off when cocoa is cooked.
