perception and the power of raw chocolate

Y E A R S ago, I experienced eating a raw cacao bean. I liked it and ate more. I didn't sleep, I couldn't. The night was spent shaking with a dreadful restlessness and I hallucinated (categorically different from having visions) as the night moved on.
Raw cacao is powerful stuff! Some have laughed upon hearing me make this claim. Until they realized: I was serious.
Don't confuse your neighborhood adulterated candy bar for raw cacao.

These folks don't:

"Proponents say that raw, virgin cacao is far more potent than you ever imagined. First comes a surge of endorphins into your bloodstream, which increases acuity and fuels you with feelings of euphoria. Then there’s the flood of magnesium, which relaxes your muscles and de-tenses your body. Raw cacao is also chock-full of flavanols that increase blood circulation and stimulate brain power, according to a recent study from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition."

I'm a proponent. Cacoa is powerful. Mind the dose and time of day/hour of consumption relative to your bedtime. ^i^
