So heart disease is the number one killer of all diseases in America, Europe, and globally. Cacao beans are the beans that are used to make chocolate ( where chocolate comes from). Cacao is most likely the most heart healthy food in the world, cacaos old translation means food that builds or helps the heart. The Kuna ( indigenous people) of Panama islands are some of the healthiest people on earth.. What is their staple food? The Kuna drink a cacao beverage each day, actually they drink 25 ounces on average a day, cacao is there staple food, and they literally thrive like no ones business on this food. The Kuna have one tenth of heart disease that we have in the US, they thought it might be genetics, but when some of Kuna migrate to the US or Cuba, they get the same diseases at almost the same levels when they get away from this super food called cacao ( chocolate). Note that the Kuna eat almost all of their beverage in raw form, using little heat to make this wonderful cacao beverage.. There is more to the Kuna story and you can find a little more on my food blog Path2food. Food has a story and culture all of its own, if you are ready for it... Until next time...
