It bears a fruit that are called pods and are differing hues of yellow and orange when ripe. Because the tree is of shallow root structure, it is not sturdy enough for climbing and so many of these pods are picked by using long poles with knives on the end. A typical pod releases 20-50 beans. These beans possess a type of slimy covering which is left covered to ferment for a few days. The fermentation allows some of the bitterness to be removed from the inner bean. \u00a0Once fermented, the beans are dried.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Health Benefits:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Nutritionally dense food, including protein, fat, certain B-vitamins and minerals such as calcium, sulfur, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, zinc and copper.<\/li>\n<li>May help to improve mood<\/li>\n<li>May help to improve alertness<\/li>\n<li>May naturally regulate blood sugar levels<\/li>\n<li>May support cardiovascular health, due to ability to reduce oxidation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>How to Use:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cacao powder can be used in instant cocoas, chocolates, desserts, home-baking<\/li>\n<li>Mix into smoothies, kefir yoghurt, cottage cheese or in raw desserts<\/li>\n<li>Replace cocoa in hot chocolate beverages<\/li>\n<li>Add into oatmeal, parfaits, salads and puddings.<\/li>\n<li>Use to make chocolate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>References:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/whfoods.com<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/authoritynutrition.com<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/draxe. com<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/nutritionfacts.org[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Raw cacao powder is a hugely beneficial ingredient for human health, due to the significant levels of polyphenols and flavanols (antioxidants) contained within its natural form.
