FAQ
- What is the difference between cacao and cocoa?
Cacao and cocoa both come from the seeds of the Theobroma cacao tree, but they are processed differently. Cacao is typically minimally processed, helping preserve more of its naturally occurring flavanols and polyphenols, while cocoa is generally roasted at higher temperatures, which can reduce some of these naturally occurring compounds. - Why is cacao considered a superfood?
Cacao is often called a superfood because it is naturally rich in phytonutrients, particularly flavanols and other polyphenols, as well as minerals like magnesium, iron, copper, and manganese. Its exceptional nutrient density and antioxidant content make it a popular addition to wellness-focused diets. - How do cacao flavanols support cardiovascular health?
Research suggests cacao flavanols help support healthy endothelial function, which is important for maintaining normal blood vessel flexibility and circulation. Their antioxidant properties also help protect cells from oxidative stress, supporting overall cardiovascular health as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. - What makes Swanson Full Spectrum Cacao unique?
Swanson Full Spectrum Cacao delivers 400 mg of whole-bean raw cacao (Theobroma cacao) per capsule, providing naturally occurring flavanols, polyphenols, and phytonutrients. This Full Spectrum formula preserves cacao’s balanced nutritional profile, unlike highly processed cocoa or isolated extracts. The capsule format offers a convenient, mess-free way to enjoy raw cacao without added sugar or calories. - Is Swanson Full Spectrum Cacao suitable for special diets?
Swanson Full Spectrum Cacao is made with non-GMO ingredients and is formulated without gluten or dairy. It is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian lifestyles because it contains a gelatin capsule, which is animal-derived. Individuals following plant-based diets should review the ingredient list before use.
