The main psychoactive components in cacao are L-Tryptophan and Theobromine. Tryptopan is in the body transformed to Serotonin. That´s what makes you feel well and happy. It regulates your emotions, your motivation, your pain tolerance and your mood to name just a few.

Theobromin acts similar like caffein – it is stimulating, raises your heartbeat and gets you alert and focussed on the here and now.
