This cocoa is responsibly sourced with a company that supports the Cocao Horizons Foundation.
How Chocolate and Cannabinoids Like Delta-8 THC Work Together
Cannabinoids are said to be boosted with the presence of the chocolate thanks to the chocolate’s amazing activating properties.
The responsible party within chocolate is a naturally occurring chemical in the brain, called anandamide. While its presence is smaller in chocolate, its assistance is no small feat!
Theobromine is another compound within the chocolate, known for the mood-enhancing stimulation within chocolate; it acts as the “driver” of nutrients and chemicals that will take cannabinoids into our body’s tissues and overall system.
Aside from these, we can thank additional naturally occurring compounds in chocolate such as:
- serotonin
- dopamine
- phenylethylamine
These compounds are known to enhance mood and stimulate your central nervous system!
