Matakana Superfoods Cacao Nibs Organic Criollo Heritage are a delicious crunchy snack with a rich chocolate taste. Sourced from the finest heritage Criollo cacao beans in Peru, our Organic Cacao Nibs are a yummy addition to baking and trail mixes or enjoyed straight out of the pack.

Criollo cacao also contains very high levels of antioxidants – 96,000 on the ORAC scale. They are lightly toasted to maintain nutritional integrity.  Cacao is one of the best food sources of magnesium available. A large majority of western society are deficient in this stress-busting mineral due to poor food choices, excess alcohol/caffeine consumption and high stress levels. Magnesium is involved in over 300 metabolic processes within the body.
 
It is key to ensuring a good night’s sleep as well as proper muscle and nerve function. Adequate magnesium consumption also ensures clarity of mind and helps to reduce feelings of stress and fatigue.
 
Mood Booster Cacao products have the ability to improve our feelings of wellbeing due to their positive effect on a number of key neurotransmitters known for their anti-depressant abilities such as serotonin, dopamine, phenylethylamine and anandamide. These chemicals have been shown to be highest in happy people and are responsible for lifting our mood and are often referred to as our ‘bliss’ chemicals. 

Cacao also contains monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO inhibitors) which are able to enhance this mood boosting effect as they slow down the degradation of these neurotransmitters, helping to extend their blissful effect.

  • Packed in a facility that may handle products containing gluten, nuts, and sesame seeds.
Serving suggestion: Add to cereal, trail mix, smoothies, ice cream and baking.
