Cocoa was already cultivated by the Mayas more than 2500 years ago. Cacao
comes from the Mayan language: - cac, which means red (in reference to the color
of the fruit shell), and cau, which expresses the ideas of strength and fire.
Cacao is excellent against sadness, anxiety and irritability, because
it contains theobromine, caffeine and theophylline that stimulate various
physiological actions including that of the nervous system and blood
circulation.
Studies conducted by international institutions have highlighted that cacao has
health-beneficial qualities. It possesses antioxidant qualities that help regularize
the expansion and contraction movements of the heart, thus playing a role in
preventing cardiovascular disease. Its consumption could even reduce the
risks of some cancers. Cocoa is also an important source of energy.

Organic cocoa production represents a very small share of world
cocoa production, which is less than 1%. However, demand for products made with organic cocoa is rising rapidly, as people's concerns about the food safety of the products they consume are becoming more and more important.

Organic cocoa is more expensive than regular cocoa, which allows producers to cover higher production costs and to pay for certification.
