Raw Chocolate Delight From Aly

TUNBRIDGE WELLS, U.K. - Oct. 14, 2014 - PRLog -- Science has shown that some forms of chocolate can help lower blood pressure, improve muscle function, increase heart health, elevate mood, lower anxiety, relieve feelings of stress and boost creativity.

Aly Harrold of Aly’s Planet explains:

‘If you are a chocolate lover who regularly consumes this beautiful substance you want to make sure the chocolate you eat not only satisfies your desire but is really doing you some good at the same time, so Raw Chocolate is the best.

All chocolate is made from the beans of the Cacoa Tree “ Theobroma Cacao”. Translated this means “Food of the Gods” and chocolate is indeed a Superfood.

Most commercial chocolate is heated and cooled at least three times during the process of creating it. Heat destroys nutrients and then there are all those other substances added to it, refined sugars, fats, dairy and chemical flavours and preservatives.

In the creation of Raw Chocolate the ingredients – the cacoa butter and cacoa powder are never heated above 40 degrees C so all the goodness is preserved.

Raw Cacao is a truly amazing food full of nutrients including:

• Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 & E
• Magnesium - Cacoa is one of the best sources of this mineral - essential for a healthy heart and balancing hormones.
• Essential amino Acids which build the cells in the body.
• Iron, Calcium and Zinc
• Feel good minerals and trace elements.

It’s two chemicals in particular phenylethylamine and serotonin, which enable us to feel in a good mood, more energised and even creative. Of course all chocolate should be eaten respectfully, but with raw chocolate you will not get the blood sugar spikes that can come after eating commercial chocolate which can leave your body feeling fatigued because of the high sugar and dairy content.’

Indeed if eaten in moderation alongside a diet of fresh and living foods, Aly even says Raw Chocolate can help you loose weight.
