Choc Me Up | Mushroom Cacao, Ceremonial Grade with Reishi & Chaga
Ceremonial Grade Mushroom-Cacao Complex
Triple-extract mushroom formulation combined with ceremonial-grade cacao creates a synergistic blend of bioactive compounds. Raw cacao undergoes controlled low-temperature processing to preserve heat-sensitive compounds and enzymatic activity. Dual-extracted mushroom compounds utilize both water and alcohol extraction methods to optimize bioavailability of both water-soluble and fat-soluble components.
Each ingredient undergoes independent laboratory testing for heavy metals, microbial contamination, and active compound standardization. The manufacturing process maintains strict temperature control below 42°C to preserve enzymatic activity and heat-sensitive compounds.

Traditional Applications and Cultural Context
This formulation integrates three distinct healing traditions: Mesoamerican cacao ceremonies, Traditional Chinese Medicine mushroom usage, and Northern European folk medicine. Raw cacao's historical use spans over 4,000 years, particularly among Maya and Aztec civilizations where it served ceremonial and medicinal purposes.
Reishi mushroom, known as Lingzhi in Traditional Chinese Medicine, has documented use dating back to the Han Dynasty (206 BCE - 220 CE). Classic texts describe it as the "mushroom of immortality," noting its superior adaptogenic properties.
Chaga mushroom utilization originated in Siberian folk medicine, where it was traditionally harvested from birch trees during winter months when its medicinal compounds are most concentrated. Russian and Northern European healing traditions have employed chaga for centuries, particularly for immune system support.
