Chocolate pudding: 1 tbsp raw cacoa, 2 tbsp chia seeds, 1 cup oat, soy or almond milk. Put in a vitamix to blend then put in freezer for 30 mins. So healthy and delicious!
Thanks for clearing up the confusion. Ca-Cow - spelled: (C-A-C-A-O) V.S. Ca-Co-A - spelled: (C-A-C-O-A) Love the Raw Cacao. Clean energy. Great Diet enhancer. Heirloom varieties are the best! No negative side efects from my experience.
They sell Raw Cacao at Walmart - a huge one pound bag! I blend 2 tablespoons of it with soy milk and chocolate protein powder and it makes a great after workout shake!
Avoid Soy. Its GMO unless stated. And causes cancer, amongst other things. Only Fermented Organic Soy is safe Japanese style like Miso, Natto, Tempeh, etc. Even then, estrogen enzyme levels in it can cause havoc to hormones. Do blood work first re endocrine disruptors. Before n after. Dont blindly follow health fads re soy. Not all vegan or vegetarian practices are safe n healthy. Good luck. X
plain old cocoa powder provides all the minerals anyone could need, along with some nice antioxidants. It is hard to imagine that cacao is THAT big an improvement. The truth is you have a superfood sitting in your cabinet already. The same underapreciated super food that is your moms cupboard when you were growing up.
Occasionally i may use honey, but mainly eat them bitter! I got used to it :-) it's actually only bitter when first hits your taste buds, but once you chew into a mush the bitterness significantly subsides... Most people avoid bitter foods, but according to the ayurvedic science of the six kinds of Taste and mental States and qualities they relate to, bitter taste (opposite of sweet) builds discipline energy in the brain and nervous system and balances out too much Water element ... has the quality of drying. No matter how much I was exercising, eating all healthy fats, A ideal Pescatarian/Vegetarian diet and staying away from sugar, dairy and wheat I was SO DAMN FRUSTRATED about my belly still appearing bloated a lot. Soon as I started eating a handful of Cacao nibs daily (deliberately raw) I noticed my belly started shrinking quickly! Sounds Crazy, but true!
Anthony Bunch I have recently purchased cocoa butter. It’s a nice little snack. I got it from Wild Foods. I have been wanting to try adding Cacao powder to Bullet Proof Coffee. I think that it will turn out pretty good. I also want to try it with Cocoa Butter as well.
Sank you for this information. Just wish I saw this before I ordered cocoa capsule which is priced 1000% more in comparison to raw cacao powder. Thank you and God bless you with salvation.
Hi new sub here. Im researching the benefits of cacao your video helped me a lot. Precise and to the point. Thank you. Im looking to also add it into my diet. Where can I get raw cacao powder?
CGM8679 You could add 1 tbsp of raw cacao powder to a smoothie, you could make hot chocolate out of raw cacao. I've got tons of recipes with raw cacao here: www.joyoushealth.com/?s=raw+cacao&post_type=&filter= One of my fave recipes is my Chocolate Almond Butter Mylkshake: www.joyoushealth.com/blog/2015/05/19/chocolate-almond-butter-milkshake/ Raw cacao provides a "cleaner" energy and does not tax the adrenals the way coffee can.
@AppleThorn Records I was just about to comment that. I haven't drunk cow milk in such a long time, mostly because almond milk doesn't expire so quickly like regular milk does. But honestly, it tastes so much more better.
Great content, you know your stuff and your inner glow shows from all the joyous health! Thank you for sharing and dropping the knowledge, this is exactly the information I was looking for.
GREAT Video!! BUT....you forgot to mention it needs to be organic. You also forgot to mention the cocoa powder IS very healthy, but raw cacao is better. I always buy Organic Cocoa powder. But, thanks to you I am switching to organic raw cacao! And yes, I do sweeten it with organic raw honey, organic coconut palm sugar and/or organic stevia.
Roasting reduces phytates. Phytates blocks some uptake of minerals. Some brands don't use lower and slower heating which gives you the best of both worlds. Better digestion and less phytates.
I definitely would add a few teaspoons of organic raw cacao to my cup of coffee and sugar free non-dairy almond milk plus zero calorie sweetener to make sugar free healthy mocha.
I'm really enjoying the organic cacao nibs just straight up as a snack. Yeah, it was a little bitter and crunchy at first but love it now. Curious on your opinion on these vs the power. Great channel, thanks
I'm making some now, I tried that That Remedy Cacao Essentials almond milk drink, then when that was gone I kept refilling the bottle, sometimes with silk organic soy no sugar added, green carton, sometimes with almond milk, prefer the soy, throw like 3 spoons of cacao and then some pyure Stevie extract that's only Stevie in ingredients, shake the he'll out of it, it's so good. I got the Better Body Foods organic cocao powder it's all I could aquire, hopefully no cadmium or lead and not baked first lol. Really is delicious.
You'll want to look for "cacao" which is the raw form of cocoa. Cocoa has been roasted and doesn't have all of it's antioxidants and minerals in tact. I'm not sure what Hershey's puts in theres but typically "cocoa" has added ingredients.
Question: if you are adding honey to sweeten anyway 1) what's wrong with candy bars and 2) what's wrong with the alkali process using potassium carbonate and LESS sweetener?
I was having raw cacao every day and just learned about a lot of negative effects and about how toxic it is. I'm very confused by all the information about it that's out there. Meanwhile I'm stopping having it immediately until I know more.
patty 8873 theres a lot of mis fed information out there. Companies that try and fight back to keep us from doing better. Its always important too really dig deep in researching anything.
Np. I just notice how a lot will even say certain things even about b12 for instance, and then one set of doctors will say another. You can find this is true for so much out there, bc doctors will do research from who wants them to do it. So its not always a trustable source. Nut when you have plenty of doctors stating how some civilizations have a cup of coco a day and live longer bc of it. Thats when you really gotta think. Do your research. Who are the doctors putting out that info and who is the one sponsoring that research to have that info out. Same thing in politics honestly. If you notice how most bad and false info come out about a party you can find its really almost always by the opposing side. The news stations that are geared for this party or just looking to put out a story. Bc thats there ultimate job is ratings. Which is why they will only put on air what they feel will lead people to what they want them to think about it and cut the rest of the interview.
Do you think Hershey’s cocoa powder still has nutritional value? It tastes just like chocolate, and it’s really bitter. I like to mix it with my green tea sometimes (I know that sounds like a bizarre combination). Thanks!
Sounds great but I read so much about raw cacao having fungi in it, so it's actually better to have it heated (cocoa powder) in order to kill it off. What's your opinion on that? Also, I love my homemade kefir and you also call it a superfood. Is the milk protein not a problem in this case?
Roonitochka If it's properly fermented, batch tested for mycotoxins and you are buying a reputable brand then you don't need to worry about fungus. Giddy Yoyo is the main brand I buy. You can read more about it on their website because they address the mycotoxin issue. The fermentation process should also be closely monitored to prevent this -- when people feel jittery and anxious from cacao it's usually a reaction to the mold and not necessarily the caffeine. That being said, if you don't feel well when you eat it then definitely avoid it. Kefir is definitely a superfood if you can tolerate dairy because it's very high in good bacteria.
Hi I just bought the Lucy Bee organic cacao powder- is it ok to put say a teaspoon of this in my two and a half year olds porridge in the mornings? I read cacao powder contains caffeine- is this right ? Would the cacao not be good for him? Hope you can help, many thanks
great info, very thorough - was at the grocery store last night debating buying Cocoa Powder or Cacao since the ingredients looked so similar! (i went with Cacao). thanks so much! love your positive energy and vibes, by the way 😊✌🏽
Question: When I make a batch of no bake cookies with raw cacao, honey, and maple syrup.. is it okay to eat the whole thing? Probably too much sugar, but also a lot of fiber. I put oat bran in mine
You can not get fresh, raw cacao beans in the U.S. unless you grow a cacao tree. Not recommended. They are only eaten fermented & roasted by the natives. The fruit, also unavailable in the U.S., is what is eaten raw. Not the seeds.
I didn´t know about the thing about the milk. Could you point out any legitime scientific document or sort of that we can check?. This is so new for me. I try to eat healthy without falling in some kind of absurdity. Thanks.
iiinesita Just "google" casein blocking antioxidant absorption you'll find the scholarly articles pretty easily :) I hear you, it's always best to do your own research. The same is true for adding milk to tea, it blocks the absorption of polyphenols. It's not really new research.. you'll find studies dating back to 2007. Hope that helps!
Its pronounced CA-CO when I heard her say cacow I thought it was something else. Here in the Caribbean we consume this all the time especially in and nice hot drink with, fresh nutmeg, bayleaf ect! Very tasty
The "healthline" website evidences that studies are conflicted and inconclusive as to whether milk protein blocks antioxidant activity and/or their health benefits. It advises people not to worry about consuming dairy with antioxidant-rich foods. Go ahead and consume them together, as desired, it says.
but how do you fix raw cacao powder? What can you make with raw cacao and how to go about making it? That should be your next video! Btw I didn't have any raw cacao yet but I feel like loving you already! Thx for the vid

I liked your comments hammering the bad side of sugar and milk. However you pointed out that coco is heated and loses some nutrition. So much more nutrition is lost by heating the cacao butter. What kind of fat is cacao butter? Is it like coconut a water soluble saturated fat? Please advise. Why not just chew on the cacao beans to get the nutrition first hand?
I know this Post if from 2015 BUT can you tell me why I Don't feel good when I eat Any Chocolate? I have been told my Adrenals are shot from too much Caffeine. Is this why?
I actually want get rid from my black tea. Can i add raw cacao or coco powder in milk .. usually i take two times tea in a day. So what is good for health benefits cacao or coco powder? Thanks
That's amazing! You really learn to appreciate the higher quality chocolate over time and it's actually not even desirable to go back to the other stuff afterwards!
@ Clemmo I was exactly the same, ate Lindt 90%. Now for about a year, I've been eating Ghirardelli's 100% unsweetened dark chocolate baking bar, no sugar and less net carbs. Taste wise, not much difference than Lindt 90%. Give it a try!
Do the lindt bars use real cacao, I'm confused because they say Cacoa on the front package but then it says Cocao butter, cocao mass in the ingredients.. werid
I bought organic cacao powder which not rows, but it has label that says it can expose to cadmium which causes cancer. What is your thoughts about that.
I'VE BEEN TRYING THIS SINCE WATCHING THE VIDEO THANK YOU FOR SHARING ❤PS I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR ACCENT SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE USUAL AMERICAN ACCENT ❤BE WELL MY FRIEND ❤
I have a question I'm very confused because I have cacao with brown colour and not sweet of course and I have the dark cacao , so is the two of them a good cacao , and the bad one is it the one that we put in the milk ??
I add raw cacoa powder to my porridge with a table spoon of marine collagen, pumpkin seeds and a small teaspoon of raw organic honey, delicious and super healthy.
I stock shelves at night, and a few weeks ago was a busted bag of cacao nibs. Out of curiosity I tried a small handful and it was awful. Not a fan. But then again, I take turmeric even though it tastes just awful.
Haha, straight up cacao nibs are not the tastiest that's for sure. They are extremely bitter. You really need to combine them with something else more sweet. Try my Sexy Maca Balls! Here's the yummy recipe: th-cam.com/video/06QBtX83414/w-d-xo.html
Joyous Health Thank you and I WILL watch and learn. Spent my first 4 decades eating god knows what all before I started eating for health, going gluten-free, all natural and organic the best decision I ever made!
I never noticed until now that us canadians really do sound how americans think we do, we really do have a slight accent lmboo how we pronounce certain words,kinda cool tbh
I would say try to incorporate 1 tsp - 1 tbsp, but don't worry if it's not an everyday thing. There are a ton of other ways to reap the benefits of the nutrients that are in cacao too by eating a wide variety of foods.
Chocolate pudding: 1 tbsp raw cacoa, 2 tbsp chia seeds, 1 cup oat, soy or almond milk. Put in a vitamix to blend then put in freezer for 30 mins. So healthy and delicious!
@@DetroitMFers Lectins are in beans too and all the "blue zones" with centenarians all consume 1/2 cup+ of beans per day.
Oats? Insuline spike is too much for me. I'll have to try this with some almond flour
@@RedBeardDevelopment they were referring to oat milk
Wow
Thank for the recipe!
Every time she said “Raw cacao” I heard “rock a cow” and thought about cow tipping 🤷♂️
Jon Chalfant oh dear! Not a nice thing to do to cows. It’s probably my Canadian accent 👍🏻
Agree! I cannot understand what she is referring to on the first jar! I hear her say "rock a cow" too!
Jon Chalfant LoL me too
Haha, I cant unhear that now 🤣
You shouldn't have probably said that..."rock a cow" is all I'm hearing now😂😂😂😂😂😂

I have a question I'm very confused because I have cacao with brown colour and not sweet of course and I have the dark cacao , so is the two of them a good cacao , and the bad one is it the one that we put in the milk ??
I add raw cacoa powder to my porridge with a table spoon of marine collagen, pumpkin seeds and a small teaspoon of raw organic honey, delicious and super healthy.
Bristol bull terrier. That sounds delicious!
It is high in oxalates ?
Is hersheys cocoa powder any good? 100% cocoa
Hello... what is the best brand of raw cacao powder ... thank you for your informative videos please keep them coming...
I like Giddy Yoyo (Canadian brand), Navitas (American brand) and EcoIdeas
I enjoyed your video. I love eating dark chocolate bars that are 55% to 85% cocoa, but I don't eat cacao very much though.
Thanks James! Cacao is really great to incorporate into your baking or smoothies!
Cocoa can be just as good as long as it is organic with nothing added"
It will still be roasted so if you want all of the raw minerals and nutrients, I would recommend raw cacao
@@joyoushealth cacao seeds should be roasted before it is turned into cacao powder. Then it will be safe to consume.
edward gallanghi raw cacao is fermented so it is safe to eat 👍🏻
I like sunflower lecethin.
My concern is the toxic metals like cadmium … I’m in search for the cocoa powder that has zero or extremely low toxic metals. Any recommendations?
Navitas
great explanation of difference
Happy to hear it was helpful for you!
THIS WAS A AWESOME VIDEO THANK YOU PS YOU LOOK FABULOUS ❤
Where do we get cacao?
I stock shelves at night, and a few weeks ago was a busted bag of cacao nibs. Out of curiosity I tried a small handful and it was awful. Not a fan. But then again, I take turmeric even though it tastes just awful.
Haha, straight up cacao nibs are not the tastiest that's for sure. They are extremely bitter. You really need to combine them with something else more sweet. Try my Sexy Maca Balls! Here's the yummy recipe: th-cam.com/video/06QBtX83414/w-d-xo.html

Thank you and I WILL watch and learn. Spent my first 4 decades eating god knows what all before I started eating for health, going gluten-free, all natural and organic the best decision I ever made!
Can I heat milk and drink. Raw cacao with it mixed
Hi how are u??where can i buy raw cocoa?re
Lovely video thanks !
Great video. Very educating... thank you. ☺
Happy you enjoyed it :)
I never noticed until now that us canadians really do sound how americans think we do, we really do have a slight accent lmboo how we pronounce certain words,kinda cool tbh
What is the least amount you can take daily for all the benefits?
I would say try to incorporate 1 tsp - 1 tbsp, but don't worry if it's not an everyday thing. There are a ton of other ways to reap the benefits of the nutrients that are in cacao too by eating a wide variety of foods.
Thank you, dear. You were the only one clear on this subject. :)
Can we make chocolate with cacao powder.....plz answer my question
Does this block iron obsorbion
Great video. I was always confused as to the difference between the two. I am going to purchase some cocao powder now!
Baking Girl Great!
erm. raw cacao?!?!?
Baking Girl -Not cocao, ca-cao , I think that's what she said in video.
Do your self a favor and check into using organic Stevia, from the leaves only, for your Cacao sweetener.
Which cacao powder do u use? Tell me it's really confusing dear
What if we will add protine powder (whey protin) + milk + cacao pwder. Is it healthy? How about absorbing antioxidant in this case?
