You've heard of cocoa, but have you heard of cacao? Its the amazingly good super food that you want in your shakes.
Cacao (the one with the "o") is the ancient maya feel good food from un-roasted cacao beans. This super food has more magnesium than spinach, no sugar and 2/3 of it is all fiber! Additionally - find an organic one and it is non-gmo, kosher, fair trade, gluten free and vegan.
