Description
Organic Cacao Butter
Cacao butter is one of many ways the cacao bean can be processed. Cacao butter, also called Theobroma oil, is a pale-yellow, edible vegetable fat extracted from the cacao bean.
Cacao butter has massive benefits when you eat it and when you apply it to your skin. You might know of it as chocolate, but cacao is a less processed form that does not use high heat, leaving the superfood qualities intact. It is full of healthy fats, nutrients, antioxidants and helps balance mood regulating hormones.
Health & Nutrition
Healthy Fat
This 100% vegan fat is a great addition for those who are on a plant-based diet or who are trying to get more healthy, saturated fats in their diet. It’s full of fatty acids like oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid that are antioxidants that fight free radicals. These antioxidants also ensure a long shelf life.
Prevents Skin Dryness and Peeling
Cacao butter makes an excellent skin moisturizer, plus it does more than just hydrate the skin – it helps actually heal it from the inside out too. It’s a great source of natural antioxidants that are found in cocoa beans. Saturated fats are especially beneficial for healing dry, cracked skin because they’re easily absorbed and remain on the skin for hours.
Antioxidant Powerhouse
Since it comes from nutrient-packed cacao beans, cacao butter is a good source of natural antioxidants which may boost the immune system, support heart health, and lower inflammation.
Hair Care
Cacao butter can help to moisturize your hair, helping to improve its general appearance and strength. Cacao butter has also been linked to a lower incidence of dandruff and healthier hair follicle beds, thereby reducing hair loss and preventing the onset of male pattern baldness.
Cacao butter makes us happy
It boosts neurotransmitters and balances hormones. When you are going through a stage of PMS, your dopamine and serotonin levels will drop. Your body doesn’t like this and knows when to call for help. That’s why you crave chocolate. A nice cacao butter massage is another way to release that feel good hormone serotonin. Cacao is one of those amazing superfoods that is good for a woman’s hormones, inside and out.
