Cacao is the rich, dark seed from the cacao tree, native to the tropical regions of Central and South America. Known for its deep flavor, it's the foundation of chocolate, often celebrated in sweets and desserts around the world. Packed with antioxidants, cacao supports heart health and boosts mood, while its natural compounds can enhance brain function. However, when transformed into sugary chocolate, it can lose some of its health benefits. Enjoying raw or minimally processed cacao allows you to savor its unique taste and reap its nutritious rewards.
