Chocamaca - Deliciously Healthy
• Helps increase mental, physical and
sexual energy*
• Provides greater endurance and
supports overall strength*
• Elevates your mood, increases
concentration and focus*
Pure, Organic Cacao from the Rainforest
Through nutritional analysis, we are learning and naming over 300 chemical
compounds at play in cacao. We are exploring their psychochemical effects on
us – our central nervous systems, our bodies, minds and moods.
Antioxidant Rich:
Cocoa beans are rich in specific antioxidants such as catechins and epicatechins,
the antioxidants found in green tea, as well as flavonoids, proanthocyanidins and
polyphenols, the antioxidants found in red wine and grape seeds.
A Healthy Cardiovascular System:
Many studies published in the past few years have revealed the health-promoting
properties of cacao, especially on the cardiovascular system. One study concluded
that cocoa powder and dark chocolate favorably affect cardiovascular disease risk
status by modestly reducing LDL oxidation susceptibility, and increasing serum
total antioxidant capacity and HDL-cholesterol concentrations.
Improved Concentration and Mood:
Take pure dark chocolate to increase concentration and elevate mood. Cacao
is also a unique source of the biogenic amine phenylethylamine (PEA). PEA is
known as the molecule of love. When taken orally, it increases attention and
concentration, and elevates mood.
Ingredients: Organic chocolate (whole, unrefined evaporated cane juice, chocolate liquor, unrefined cocoa butter,
vanilla beans), Maca, Jatoba, Blue-Green Algae, Marine Fucus, Camu Camu, Bitter Orange, Suma, Catuaba, Muira
Puama, Canela, Kiwicha (non-GMO soy lecithin as an emulsifier).

Low in Calories and Fat
Compared to other chocolates and candy,
Chocamaca is low in calories and fat. If
chocolate has a bad reputation as far as
health is concerned, it is strictly because
of the refined white sugar commercial
chocolate contains. Otherwise, pure cacao
is a rich source of antioxidants which
support a healthy heart, help reduce
harmful cholesterol and boost the immune
system. Add 11 nutritious herbs, and you have a deliciously healthy treat!
Amazon Herb Co.’s Chocamaca goes a big step further in rejoining chocolate with
traditional herbs and grains from its original bioregion, then molding them into
small spheres reminiscent of Tibetan herb balls.
What is it about chocolate that would make 50% of women reportedly claim to
prefer chocolate to sex?
Yes, most chocolate contains some sugar. But chocolate clearly delivers far more than
a brief sugar high. Remove the refined white sugar
and we move closer to the bitter herb of its origin.
What is it we love so much in chocolate?
Could it be chocolate’s tryptophan, the essential
amino acid that enhances serotonin function, hence
diminishing anxiety? Theobromine may be the
Aztecs’ agent against mental stupor. Or perhaps
chocolate’s key to our hearts is its phenylethylamine
(PEA) content. Phenylethylamine, commonly called
the “love molecule,” is a natural chemical suspected of
causing the euphoria experienced by lovers.
PEA’s presence in wild blue-green algae, another
ingredient in Chocamaca, may explain the increased
energy, enhanced mental clarity and pervasive
upbeat optimism experienced by algae eaters.

A Sacred Mayan and Aztec History
By combining organic chocolate with other
Rainforest botanicals in its Chocamaca balls, the
Amazon Herb Co. makes a daring thrust back to
cacao’s wild origins in the Amazon headwaters.
From its wild Amazon roots, cacao moved north
to Central America where Mayans began its
cultivation in 1500 BC. With great genius, they
developed a sophisticated fermentation process
that turned the cacao bean into a versatile
medicine and a revered ceremonial drink.
Like the Mayans, the Aztecs prepared many
medicinal chocolate beverages. Cacao beans,
blended with ground maize and herbs, alleviated
fevers, breathlessness and faintness of heart;
combined with ground hot pepper, they relieved pain; and spiked with the
ground vanilla bean, they induced sleep. Chocolate herbal preparations helped
emaciated patients gain weight; others toned the nerves of feeble patients
trapped in a mental stupor; and still others enlivened stagnant stomachs,
stimulated exhausted kidneys and improved sluggish bowels.
For Mayans and Aztecs, cacao’s origin was a divine one, given by the god
Quetzalcoatl. Like pulque, tobacco, sacred mushrooms and coca, cacao was
considered a sacred plant in the charge of male deities: the Mixtec Seven
Flower and the Aztec Lord of Flowers, Xochipilli, god of song, poetry and spring.
It was the sacred beverage xocolati, sweetened and flavored with cinnamon and
vanilla, and served in golden cups, that Montezuma first served Cortés in 1519.
Used in ritual ceremonies, cacao enhances the natives’ relationship with what
they term “the powers.” Cacao, in its traditional culture, was a bitter herb, a
sacred rite and a social drink.
