The Truth About Cacao: Ceremonial, Powder, and Nibs Compared 

My friend Please stop the sound effects They're distracting You're a professional you don't need sound effects

Just for the record, I love your sound effects😂

Stuff gives me bad mood swings. I avoid it and caffeine entirely.

An excellent and informative presentation, as usual. It is interesting and important to learn about such a valuable and useful product. Very concise and professional as usual. Thanks from the UK.

The audio sound effects are really annoying, please don’t use those again.

There are some online 3rd party reports listing safe and unsafe cacao products. Lead can be a contaminant in addition to cadmium.

I would like to know about the butter! Sounds like it might be very healthy with the high fat content!

💚 Thanks 💚 & Stop this clicking & dig dong & typing Sounds+ wind Sounds= noise When u bring the Subtitles.... Who edit This Video for you ⁉️ He / she is saboteur of your Magnificent videos.... 🧞This is Medical Add vicE = Noise Pollution...🌻💚

Great video xxx

I drink cerimonial cacao and don't do anything spiritual or cerinonial. I just drink it because is good for you.

Oxalates?! Cmon guys just have some dairy bc the calcium binds them b4 gets to liver, maybe get some cheese in a mixed meal b4 ur choco dessert? Outstanding video, I love cacao nibs & 100% bar & pure cacao butter as lotion & cacao powder in shake, as an internal sunblock, all great stuff!

Thanks for sharing 😊

Gave up caffeine and now on a low fat diet - so changed to mushroom powder

So many pings and strange noises I could not get to the end and much of the video was repetitive

Could have done without the bell every few seconds.... 🤬

excellent work & vid. Thank you

I enjoy this channel but respectfully, you did not mention Oxalate (oxalic acid). This really should be part of this video IMO

Very nice and interesting, but I missed information about raw chocolate. Many thanks.

I LOVE to add 100% Raw Organic Cacao with my morning coffee with raw real "local" honey and LOVE it. 💕💕Around 2pm for an NRG boost I'll make a straight Raw Cacao with Honey and it's loaded with Niric oxide which is GR8 for blood flow. 🚀🚀Thanks for the FAB Vid Dr Van Dyken. 🙏🙏Pete Nth NSW Oz.

Thanks for the info!🦃 I would like to hear information about oxalates in cacao. I use nibs sparingly due to concern of kidney stones. I wish cacao manufacturers would include oxalate information on label.

just ordered some Cacao/Flavanoid Extract from Cocovia has anyone here used this before?

What do you know about the nitric oxide dump exercise routine? Good idea?

Isn't roasting destroying active substances in nibs?

It seems there has been some miss-information regarding Oxalates that has been published, as there are some comments relating to it have been posted. My understanding is that Oxalates are only a problem if your gut biome does not include Oxalate digesting bacterium such as Oxalobacter formigenes. This bacterium is found in all animals that consume Oxalates. Cattle, for example will get sick from eating clover (a member of Oxalis) if they lack sufficient quantities of Oxalobacter formigenes in their gut. Humans may lack Oxalobacter formigenes if they do not eat sufficient quantities of Oxalate containing foods, or have recently been on a course of antibiotics, or, have eaten something that kills Oxalobacter formigenes, such as Eucalyptus oil, which is sometimes used in lozenges for treating sore throat.

Thx for da vid!😻 Any thoughts on raw vs roasted nibs?

Another GREAT podcast. Love the dog & chicken I'm the background. I pictured you in a large waterfront home.

Can You Send out A Link to BUY THE CACAO ????

is it not high in mycotoxins?

cacoa is high in oxalates-which is an anti nutrient and removes minerals
