Easter Sunday marks the end of a forty-day long period of fasting called Lent, which culminates in the celebration of Christ’s resurrection on the third day after his crucifixion.

Our editorial intends to stress more about how mankind or humanity as a whole, could benefit from
Raw, Organic, cold-pressed chocolate (Also known as the food of the Gods) to improve their health, enhance their beauty, and withstand their longevity.
Raw, Organic, cold-pressed chocolate is more than what meets the eyes: it is believed to be the healthiest food available on the planet. It is among the countless derivatives of cacao beans and holds a myriad of health and beauty benefits.

Health is Humanities best capital. Health is the best currency to secure humanities longevity.
The story of chocolate begins with a small tropical tree. In 1735, Linnaeus named the plant.
In 1735, Swedish Botanist Carl Linnaeus named the tree ‘Theobroma cacao’. Theobroma, the genus name originates from Greek and translates to ‘food of the Gods’, which both Mayans and Aztecs also believed was a gift from the Gods.
By the 17th century, chocolate was fashionable throughout Europe, becoming the favourite beverage after tea and coffee. Above its nutritious, medicinal and aphrodisiac properties, it remained a privilege of the rich.

Proven health benefits of eating chocolate
The secret of dark chocolate lies in its powerful cacao bean packed with healthy chemicals such as polyphenols, flavonoids and numerous ingredients beneficial to humans, such as :
Calcium, iron, thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), phosphorus, niacin, niacin amide (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), vitamin E, pyridoxine (vitamin B6), ascorbic acid (vitamin C), magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese.
Calcium is vital for ensuring the strength and healthiness of bones, teeth and capillary growth; it regulates the circulatory system, blood pressure and the beating of the heart.

Thiamine (B1) vitamins assist the body in converting carbohydrates into energy; vital for our heart, muscles and nervous system.
Zinc: a vitamin which stabilises cell walls, and is necessary in keeping the immune system healthy and robust.
Copper: along with most of the iron attributes, builds up red blood cells and also maintains the immune system, blood vessels, nerves, and healthy bones.
Manganese, iron, collagen and flavanols contained in chocolate enhance energy levels, hair growth and skin repair, protecting skin from the sun’s rays and reducing the severity of burns.
Flavanols, a type of flavonoid found in dark chocolate, helps to protect you from heart disease by lowering blood pressure, improving blood flow, and preventing cell damage.
Chocolate beauty benefits
Experts unveil the health and beauty benefits of chocolate. The consumption of pure chocolate smooths wrinkles, increases blood flow and Vivienne Rudd of market researcher Mintel says the company recorded more than “370 cacao-containing body care products. The number of facial skincare products featuring cacao has risen from 10 per cent to 180 in recent decades.”

Cocoa powder also contains polyphenols, antioxidants that help to improve cholesterol and blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.
It has been medically and scientifically proven that dark chocolate may boost mankind’s immune system.
According to a study published in the US National Institute of Health “cocoa has been revealed as a food with immunoregulatory properties.” Cocoa influences the immune system, in particular the inflammatory innate response and the systemic and intestinal adaptive immune response.”
There is no health risk with the myriad of vitamins included in organic chocolate dietary supplements because those vitamins are evenly balanced in high antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. Chocolate is a powerful ‘Super food’ packed with vitamins that help our bodies stay healthy and avoid DNA damage.

Rudd is a beauty expert in the personal care analyst team at Mintel, the world’s leading market intelligence agency.
However, medical studies have shown that, unless under a doctor’s guidance, we should not consume too high an amount of these vitamins and antioxidants as our bodies would not be able to process them.
Therefore, we should only get most of the vitamins listed above via natural foods, as our bodies are programmed to process most of these nutrients and vitamins.
