Feature: What’s in raw chocolate?

Feature: What’s in raw chocolate?
Source: Conscious Chocolate – thanks Emma!

A quick adjunct to my feature on what makes good chocolate…

Raw chocolate is great for you because it contains over 300 nutrients such as:

Iron
Zinc
Sulphur (the beauty mineral)
Magnesium (a concentration/mental focus aid)
Tryptophan (a ‘love chemical’/and can actually help you sleep better – although cocoa’s natural caffeine content counteracts the sleep-aid factor)
Anandamide (a ‘bliss’ chemical)
Phenylethalamine (the ‘joy molecule)
Polyphenols (nourishes the heart)
MAO inhibitor (a natural appetite suppressant – although I think the caffeine does this as well)
