Organic Raw Cacao Nibs are a true nutritional powerhouse!**
Organic raw cacao nibs are packed with vitamins and minerals, including dietary fiber, phytosterols, protein, calcium, healthy fats, iron, potassium, manganese, copper, magnesium, phosphorus, selenium, zinc, vitamin K and B vitamins. Moreover, according to separate studies that were published in the journals Antioxidants & Redox SignalingandNutrients, cacao nibs contain high levels of polyphenols and some of the highest levels of flavanols of any superfood. This makes cacao nibs one of the world’s best superfood sources of antioxidants, despite their small size. Cacao nibs also contain up to four times as many antioxidants as dark chocolate, such as quercetin, epicatechin, catechin, procyanidins and other polyphenols. These antioxidants can support your optimal health and help combat free radicals.
Compared to other superfoods, cacao nibs contain:
- Up to 20x more antioxidants than blueberries
- Nearly 4x more antioxidants than dark chocolate
- Higher concentrations of antioxidants than tea, goji berries, pomegranates and other superfoods
What makes Groovy Bee® Organic Raw Cacao Nibs so great?**
The majority of cacao products on the market are contaminated with heavy metals like lead and cadmium because cacao trees are highly efficient at absorbing these metals from the soil. Cadmium is a heavy metal that gradually builds up inside your body and negatively affects your kidneys, lungs, bones and heart, while lead attacks your brain and can lower your IQ. Consuming low-quality cacao products puts you at risk of being exposed to these dangerous toxins. If you were to eat these products, the toxins going into your body would outweigh any health benefits you could get.
Our Groovy Bee® Organic Raw Cacao Nibs are made from premium cacao beans that were cultivated by our trusted suppliers following our stringent organic standards. To ensure that you receive one of the cleanest cacao products available, our delicious and nutritious organic raw cacao nibs are thoroughly lab tested for glyphosate, heavy metals and microbiology.
Organic Cacao nibs: One of the world’s most antioxidant-rich superfoods**
Flavanols are a type of flavonoid that possess potent antioxidant properties. According to a study that appeared in the journalNutrients, cacao and chocolate products contain some of the highest flavanol levels of any superfood. However, since raw cacao nibs are unprocessed, they retain even more of the bean’s original antioxidants and can have nearly four times more antioxidants than dark chocolate.
The same study found that cacao nibs contain many other antioxidant compounds, including epicatechin, catechin, quercetin, procyanidins and other polyphenols.
Additionally, a study from the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistrydiscovered that cacao nibs contain more antioxidants than red wine as well as black and green teas. Another study that appeared in theChemistry Central Journalfound that cacao nibs contain more antioxidants than blueberries, cranberries, acai berries and pomegranates.
With their natural abundance of antioxidants, cacao nibs are a tasty way to help combat oxidative stress throughout your body and promote your overall health.
