I think his message it accurate to a point except the Kuna Indians have perfect blood pressure mostly likley because they don't sit in cubicles or bombarded with junk food commerical on their TVs every day. They probably dont eat much processed foods and walk alot. They also probably do very physical labor in order to eat and survive unlike in America. Yes cacao helps but it cannot reverse the unhealthy lifestyle of the modern western man.

Cacao is the food of the gods indeed :) so I’d like us to also recognize the hard working farmers that makes it possible for everyone to obtain this magical food. Dirt poor isn’t something we should exploit for our own abundant health, that’s not healthy. But apart from that I appreciated this talk - thank you

totally agree with ethical farming. its something we pride ourselves on. its part of our model to source from different countries and communities (indigenous tribes) to not exhaust the resources from one area (like almost every large chocolate company) we also get to support more communities this way to help empower them to keep their cultural identity and not sell it to the large corps, after their land. it costs us more but its worth it.

“Cacao” generally refers to the unaltered, whole seeds of the cacao fruit, while “cocoa” is powder made from grinding and pressing roasted cacao seeds.
@naturesjoint
@naturesjoint 19 дней назад
cocoa means the extent of roasting that the bean recieves, 200degrees + . you are correct that cacao is less processed, but even cacao can be powdered. the difference is, none powder cacao utilises 100% of the bean, compared to powder it utilises only 40% as the healthy oils and fats have been extracted.

Ambos podem beneficiar sua saúde, mas é melhor ficar com a versão crua, cacau ou um produto de chocolate com alto teor de licor de chocolate. O cacau cru pode levar algum tempo para se acostumar.

I consume it about 3 times per week and it’s an expensive treat.

"Cocoa" is not the same as "cacao" which is probably what he's trying to say. And there is really no evidence, based on what he's saying, that it's the cacao which is responsible for the good health of these native people ... there are so many other factors that could be at play. And ... it's still true that cacao has a lot of beneficial properties, so let's enjoy it whenever we can! (Also, by the way, "ischemic heart disease" is NOT the same as a heart attack.)

Most chocolate and cocoa products out there are made from alkali-processed roasted cacao beans which are full of arcylamide.

Cacao refers to the raw material: the cacao beans that are harvested from the cacao tree. Cocoa is created after the beans are finely ground into a powder and roasted, and can be consumed as a drink or blended with sugar, milk, cocoa butter and cacao to make chocolate. - Google

Capitalism says if its so amazing and helpful they should charge more. I hope they are not accepting cacao for "dirt cheap" payment. I hope they charge and pay what the product and labor is worth. 😢

What about their environment and a stress-free environment no traffic no cars no bosses no 9 to 5 jobs pure oxygen from the trees and etc. plus cacao now you have a healthy environment are you leaving out a lot of elements but yes cacao has these benefits but you have to keep everything else into consideration

Cocao is the food of my ancestors. The polyphenols are amazing, but chocolate bars loaded with sugar and milk is not the same thing. Also, this gentleman's message would be more impactful if his tummy wasn't hanging over his pants. Diminishes what he has to say.

So how much should we eat every day? I follow Dr. Michael Greger's prescription of 1.00 tablespoons per day but it sounds like this guy is advocating for much more than that. Does anyone know how much?

Just another large company exploiting farmers. Demand for cocoa products is rapidly rising, so the companies up their prices but they buy the actual cacao beans for the same low price.
