What's special about Andean Mint Chocolate Bar?
Ecuador Andean Mint is a well-known export plant in Ecuador apart from its cacao beans and roses. Andean Mint is also commonly known as Muña. It has a very significant refreshing effect and is usually made into essential oils with many health benefits.
Some of the health benefits includes :
- Muña is perhaps most famously known for its ability to tackle various digestive and respiratory system ailments. When consumed in teas, seasonings or medicinal infusions, Muña helps to improve cough and flu symptoms, as well as stomach aches and diarrhea. In fact, taking just one drop can have a slightly anesthetic effect on stomach muscles!
- Muña possesses a deep, minty scent and is said to relieve states of anger, hysteria and nervous trembling. It’s excellent for combatting depression, and can be helpful in invigorating the mind, body and spirit - making it useful in promoting concentration.
This PACARI Andean Mint chocolate itself is not overly choking. The cool feeling, on the contrary, gives you a very fresh feeling, like putting a mint leaf on the tip of your tongue.

3 Reasons why you should take Dark Chocolate daily :
Recommended : 1 - 2 squares, every morning
1. Rich in Antioxidant
Cacao contains flavonoids, antioxidant compounds which are said to protect against cell damage caused by free-radicals. Research has found that they are especially beneficial with regard to blood flow. They help to lower blood pressure, promote normal blood clotting function and – as part of a healthy diet and exercise routine - have been said to decrease the risk of heart disease.
2. High in Minerals
Raw chocolate is also high in minerals such as iron, magnesium and manganese which help to sustain energy levels and protect cells.
3. Brain Food
One of the most exciting discoveries is that chocolate could reverse memory decline. A study by Columbia University found that high-flavonol cacao rejuvenated activity in the part of the brain where the decline occurs. The flavonols promoted blood flow to this cranial region and in some cases, incredibly, researchers saw participants’ memories restored to that of someone twenty or thirty years younger.
