Half a pound, unsweetened, for dark chocolate lovers. What's in it * Organic ceremonial cacao, regeneratively grown * 3,400 mg maca per serving — a custom blend of red, black, and yellow varieties * 450 mg ashwagandha per serving No sweetener. The doses here are the point: this is not a pinch of maca for marketing purposes but a full daily amount of each, which is why the serving size matters. The maca Ours grows on a spring-fed family farm at 13,000 feet in the Andes. Altitude is not incidental to maca — the plant is famous precisely because it thrives where almost nothing else will, in thin air, hard frost, and intense UV. Growers hold that the stress is what makes it what it is. We use a custom blend of red, black, and yellow maca rather than a single colour. The three are traditionally distinguished from one another and used for different purposes; blending them is the broader approach. Why cacao as the carrier Cacao is vasodilating and mildly cardiac-stimulating, which is the traditional reasoning for why it carries other plants well — it opens circulation and moves what is taken with it into the tissues. Mesoamerican ceremonial practice used cacao as a vehicle as much as a substance. The plants in traditional medicine Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a root vegetable in the brassica family, cultivated by Andean peoples for thousands of years on the Peruvian altiplano. It has been used as staple food and as tonic, particularly in relation to stamina, endurance at altitude, and vitality across the life stages. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is one of the principal rasayana herbs of Ayurveda — the category concerned with longevity and restoration. Its Sanskrit name refers to the smell of a horse, taken to mean the strength of one. It has been used for millennia for what Ayurveda frames as building ojas, or vital reserve. Cacao was ceremonial across Mesoamerica long before it was confection — used in ritual, marriage rites, and as currency. The pathways: what the research examines * Cocoa flavanols and endothelial function. The strongest evidence base in our catalogue. Flavanols have been studied extensively in relation to nitric oxide signalling and vascular dilation — enough that European regulators permit a specific claim regarding cocoa flavanols and normal blood flow at defined intakes.
