Yes, even the main source of chocolate has health benefits! Cacao powder has been proven to balance hormonal swings and naturally lower your blood sugar levels. It has anti-inflammatory properties and contains several types of Vitamin B as well as essential minerals like magnesium, calcium, sulfur, iron, zinc, copper, potassium and manganese.
Himalayan Salt!
Known in the Himalayas as "white gold," this certain type of salt contains 84 natural minerals and elements found in the human body! Unlike sea salts that have come in contact with toxins and pollutants from the ocean, himalayan salt thrives in an environment of intense tectonic pressure with no exposure to toxins and impurities. When ingested, the water and blood sugar levels within our body are regulated and our respiratory system is supported. It also reduces cramps and promotes kidney and gall bladder health!
