In 2021 you did a video on Cacao that my wife and I saw while on vacation and a month or two before that the EVOO - lemon - cayenne and honey elixir - we began taking both every day and are far healthier and I am 35 pounds less and my blood pressure went from hypertensive to perfect and my energy is better now at 54 than it was at 24! A testament to these valuable videos!!!! We did also begin watching calories and started regular exercise but I believe all work together in harmony! Thank you!
Absolutely - 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil (we use oils from Morocco because the poor soil makes the olive trees think they are starving and they produce higher polyphenols levels than other oils), I ream a half a lemon for me and my wife (so a quarter lemon for one person), I fill half of a quarter teaspoon with good cayenne pepper and then a good drizzle of organic raw honey (about 3/4 tablespoon) - the exact quantities can be modified for taste but the star of the show is good heaping tablespoon of great olive oil.
@@amya9597 I take one large but not heaped teaspoon, which I mix into a paste with a very small amount of hot water, add a teaspoonful of honey, and top up with boiling water. Got to say it’s got to be stirred a bit to stop clogging. It’s delish though!
I make a Chocolate smoothie every morning for breakfast with Raw cacao frozen banana frozen blue berries oats chia seeds flax seeds hemp protein powder cinnamon and almond milk! Thank you Dr
I use organic cacao in my oats and protein shakes. Didn't know it was this beneficial for my health. Thank you so much, doc. You trully are a bright light in this world.
Cacao powder is a favorite in my home, im in my 50s and this powder makes a noticeable difference in my overall health. Thank you Dr Mandell for all of the information you share with us.
at 61 i feel great take zero medications and feel a big part of that is due to u and your program ,, my morning routine consists of a shot of extra virgin olive oil with fresh lemon and cayenne pepper in my fresh (decaf , trying to limit my caffeine intake i luv drinking Green and black ice tea unsweetened of course during the day ) coffee i put raw cacao with local raw honey ,, been on this routine for a little over a yr now ive lost weight and seem to have plenty of energy to get me through more then a full days work and play ,, im blessed to live on the big island of Hawaii and can source 99% of everything listed fresh straight from the farm ,, again Mahalo Doc U ARE DA MAN !!
Cacao drink is the best. I mix organic Cacao powder with a bit of boiling water(so it dissolves better) and then add a cup of hot grass-fed milk and a bit of monkfruit sweetener. Best drink ever.
I've just started taking this myself. 2 teaspoons in a glass, 1 teaspoon of organic honey and some grass fed milk. only been 2 days so will have to see how it goes over the next few weeks. I also have a glass of water with 2 teaspoons of chia seeds, a tablespoon of organic apple cider vinegar, with a 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder, cayenne pepper powder and fresh ground black pepper. again, only been doing it a short time so waiting to see how the results go over time.
Dr. Mandell, you should open various Alternative Medicine practices throughout the country. You are one sharp dude with a lot of wisdom, and we absolutely love you. Peace & Blessings.

I’ve been using Cacao daily by adding it to my coffee in the morning. I use my blender add milk or cream Cacao, cinnamon, Maca Powder, a pinch of Chaga Mushroom powder, sometimes a teaspoon of Organic Jerusalem Artichoke (Inulin fibre) sometimes a pinch of Agashwanda powder ( to help the Telomeres of the DNA) , and just this past week organic Pumpkin protein powder. Blend it all up and fill two thermal coffee cups! It tastes great and hopefully has all these health benefits and more. I so appreciate Dr. Mandel . I had a heart surgeon I met grocery shopping tell me to take the juice of half a lemon and add a tablespoon of Organic, extra virgin cold pressed olive oil to it and first thing in the morning. I decided to add a dash of Cayenne pepper to the mix as well. I pray all these natural ingredients will help my Atherosclerosis. Again Dr. Mandel I appreciate all the hard work and information you provide! Thank you!
Dr Mandell, its not good to become an addict. I have become an addict of your videos! I have no regrets!! You fill us with very useful info gor a healthy lifestyle a healthy bodies. Thank you and God bless you. May you and your family have a wonderful CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY PROSPEROUS 2024.
Cacao is my go-to holistic drink that has helped improve my cognitive thinking. During my undergraduate studies, I used to experience brain fog which made it difficult for me to focus. To obtain the most nutrients possible, I aimed to increase the amount of cacao powder I consumed every week. Here's how I prepare my cacao every morning: I take 1 cup of warm (not boiled) coconut or almond milk, 2 tablespoons of cacao powder, and 1 teaspoon of vital protein collagen peptide (Vanilla flavor). I top it off with whipped cream and cacao powder and enjoy! Cacao's antioxidant content surpassing blueberries explains its powerhouse status. This information is good for everyone to know.
You’re right! Because pure cacao is hard to secure good quality in large amounts. So they sell cheap rubbish unsustainable cacao products. Cacao powder isn’t the best form of cacao that can be consumed. Take a look at ceremonial cacao from natures joint cacao 👍🏼
They sure helping my brain and just giving me energy. I can’t believe it. I needed something really bad and this has helped me tremendously. I have Addison’s disease which is horrible horrible and I’m not taking any medication. I try to eat right and vitamins and minerals and trying to heal my body with my adrenals, and this cacao has been doing wonders for me with avocadoand frozen bananas. I just love it Coco and cacao
Thanks Dr. Mandell. I just bought some baking cacao powder. I heated it with 4/5 water 1/5 milk. (And Sugar, haha-hihi-haha-ho) Surely the cheapest and best tasting health drink i made so far. I love your drink recomendations. You surely earn my prayers and respect

@@TheSamuiman Hi, friend. I never tried ceremonial Cacao, but I can tell you that Ceremonial Grade, is of the highest quality that you can get. Now, with that being said, be aware that not all merchants who say it is 100% ceremonial, are not guaranteed to be actually selling highest grade Cacao. I can tell you that ceremonial grade matcha was tremendously better in taste than the lower grade Matcha, and I cannot be fooled when it comes to Ceremonial Matcha. lol Also, the color and texture will vary. This you will notice as you become a connoisseur. ; )
Thanks for shedding light on this. Due to its growth in the spotlight a lot of companies are selling normal cacao paste (overly farmed) as ceremonial. Natures joint cacao are a small company that source direct from Indegionious tribes and small communities. Super ethical and sustainable with beautiful varieties. I recommend them

I’ve been having cacao for the last 15 years or longer. I never knew its benefits. I just loved it and I used it. I even use it without sugar and put it on some of my desserts to tame down the sugar. I love it. Thanks for all that info on the benefits that it has on your body. You are something else.❤
so refreshing to hear. at natures joint cacao this is exactly how we want people to feel. thats our mission to spread the awareness of the magical benefits of cacao. is a responsible way.
I have now started using this in the turmeric - ginger (and more) solution I have been drinking the last few days to help with pain and inflamation. The taste of the cacoa adds to make it more drinkable. Thank you for producing these videos.
Been drinking it in my coffee in the morning for about a year now. Don’t really know if it is helping anything but I want to do good things for my body and I trust Dr Mandell so I’m gonna keep drinking it.
❤I make pudding with that, gelatin powder, coconut milk, vanilla bean paste and a natural sweetener like honey or real maple syrup ❤You give me the ideas l need to up my nutrition game. Thanks ❤
@@uniqueartbybernadette I mix the following in a small pot: 1 tbsp of organic cacao powder, 1 cup of milk (I prefer almond milk), 1-2 tbsp of organic raw honey, 1 tbsp of organic coconut oil, 1 tbsp of bone broth powder (flavorless). Heat it up a little bit, not too hot.
Thank you as always Dr Mandell for all your amazing health videos. I feel if more people watched your videos and then paid attention they would be in much better health. I love Cacao.
Your advice Doc is the best here on UA-cam! I use this product in my protein shakes before I go to the gym! It supposedly helps with testosterone levels! Thanks 🙏 again Doc! You’re the best!!! ❤
I started taking 1 teaspoon of cacao before breakfast and dinner for it's vascular benefits but almost immediately noticed a huge improvement in my IBS and after a few weeks my low back pain has improved as well. When I started taking it 8 didn't even know about the other benefits other than for vascular so it was a pleasant surprise when it helped my other ailments.
Greetings Dr. Mandell . I’ve been follower for year, I just want to say Thank you for giving your time to all of us, who wants to be better health wise. ❤❤❤❤ Happy Holidays to you and your wonderful family ❤❤.
I have a drink of it daily, as it’s acceptable on a ketogenic diet! Took a little patience to get adjusted to it after normal hot chocolate, but well worth it! Thanks Dr Mandel.
It’s so great if you mix hot water and then monk fruit with a little bit of heavy cream or coconut oil and two or three or four raw eggs! Oh my goodness it is like hot chocolate and so good for you!
I have been doing one once of 85% dark chocolate a day plus a tablespoon of organic cacao in my smoothie every day for 3 years..I always wonder about the Cadmium in it?😊 Edit: Wonderful video as always! Thank you!!
My guess was going to be Ceylon cinnamon 😂. Thanks for promoting cacao. I used to use it when I had access to it and could afford it. I knew it was better than cocoa because less processing but was unaware that it had that many health benefits👍
You were right, sweet cocoa in powder if it is not bitter lacks in all those nutrients he said it has, I am Mexican and had mex cacao and only the bitter one is appreciated for Schamanic indian healing

I've tried it at 6pm (before my intermittent fasting window begin) 1- teaspoon of cacao 2- 3 spoonful of coconut milk 3- ½ teaspoon of monk fruit wow!..Deep sleep at night , smooth bowel movement ☺️ and reduce of joint pain when i woke up in the morning 😍👍🏻... awesome!!! Alhamdulillah...will stick it as my life routine ..thank you Dr M 🥰✌🏻
I love cacoa. It makes great hot cocoa, using monk fruit. (I made homemade cacoa mix - 3/4 cup cacao, 1/2 cup monk fruit, and 1-1/2 cups powered milk. Mix together and keep in a jar.) Take a mug, add a heaping teaspoon of the mix, about 1/4 cup of water - microwave for 30 seconds - then add milk to fill the cup and reheat.) Best stuff ever.
When you smile you light up my day. And the information you present is just amazing and I love to try your new ideas that you present us Thank you Dr Mandell
In my second week of using cacao powder. I started it to hopefully reduce my ED problems. My moms side of the family tree has heart problems so I figured it can’t hurt with that either.
It is wonderful, but be aware many brands contain high levels of cadmium and lead, mostly cacao from central and South America... do your research, especially if you choose to eat it daily like I do. 😊
As well as pesticides banned in the US like DDT and parathion! Funny how this clown is promoting this stuff when he also doesn't report the downsides. Typical!
@@evakonigsberg9521 they all have some - but Valrhona, Ghiradelli, Target's brand, Nestle Toll House & Whole Food's 365 have the least of the cocoa powders.
Hi Dr. Mandell Thank you for showing us the positive side of Cacao powder But there is a dark side, it has been reported that Lead and cadmium are the two heavy metals found in this powder ...can you comment on this and is there a "better" Cacao with safer amounts of these metals? Thank you
@nickdelre8958 Hope all is well, I saw it in the news too in some brand that were tested, nothing to worry much so e of the people in the world probably been using and drinking cacao long before someone decided to test and put it out there a d we just now know it at the present time, hate to tell you everything out there on the shelf and online teas, powders, spices, supplements, cereals and so forth has all contaminants even organic foods, do research you'll find out on each of the product we purchased and it's origin, the soil contaminant where it grow, where the source of the product cne from but there are tons of them out there. What about meat, eggs, processed food and their hard to pronounce ingredients listed, coffee too, medicine that we take if you research the ingredients, I know the Prednisone they called steroid has ethanol it also has a lot of side effects, I'm very sure there are more harmful ingredients in some meds guess that explains why nobody is getting better but worse, how about Fluoride in water we drink in tap water and some bottled water find out and it will shock you it is far worse than the simple cacao. Everything out there is out to take down our health unless you grow your own and knows to preserve your own they have to put these ingredients out there to maintain freshness and shelf life. We just have to thank GOD everyday that we still have life can't worry about every little thing because organic or not we don't know who's telling the truth on their label. Motivational doc Mandell helping us doing what he does best at his end and we appreciate it easier that way looking his motivational vids we are busy working and just plain busy from getting busy we can do the same through google. I still worry about everything lol😊We all need to be well and live a long healthy life. We just need to pray and put GOD first in our lives thanking HIM every day GOD bless you🙏
There are two kinds of cacao. One is better than the other, but I do not remember the brand. I heard about Dutch cacao , and I don't remember it is good or bad. What brand of cacao do you use?
Good morning ☀️ Doc !! I used to consume cacao in some drinks and over oats but stopped do to kidney stones > still confused 🫤 Thank you for your hard work dear dr Mandell > we 🌍 Love you. ♥️💞🕊️
@@cchemmes-seeseeart3948 depending in specific cases mine at beginning try drinking mostly just water and after 3rd surgery I found out that if kidney disease is 2nd stage we’re not supposed to drink too much water..

@@cchemmes-seeseeart3948 I used to drink enough water and stones still formed, the problem was that when surgeon sent stones to the lab 🧪 didn’t even show what were they made of 😕
Raw cacao with Kiefer milk cinnamon, sugarcane sugar and a liquid of your choice. Doing that for about a month now. And already starting to see significant health improvements.
In 2021 you did a video on Cacao that my wife and I saw while on vacation and a month or two before that the EVOO - lemon - cayenne and honey elixir - we began taking both every day and are far healthier and I am 35 pounds less and my blood pressure went from hypertensive to perfect and my energy is better now at 54 than it was at 24! A testament to these valuable videos!!!! We did also begin watching calories and started regular exercise but I believe all work together in harmony! Thank you!

Hi! Can u give me your ratio for making the elixir? Pls & thank you!
Absolutely - 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil (we use oils from Morocco because the poor soil makes the olive trees think they are starving and they produce higher polyphenols levels than other oils), I ream a half a lemon for me and my wife (so a quarter lemon for one person), I fill half of a quarter teaspoon with good cayenne pepper and then a good drizzle of organic raw honey (about 3/4 tablespoon) - the exact quantities can be modified for taste but the star of the show is good heaping tablespoon of great olive oil.

I’ve been having cacao for the last 15 years or longer. I never knew its benefits. I just loved it and I used it. I even use it without sugar and put it on some of my desserts to tame down the sugar. I love it. Thanks for all that info on the benefits that it has on your body. You are something else.❤
Can it be mixed in coffee?
@@robingeorgetowntxYes! I use Navitas organic in mine.
@@robingeorgetowntxyes basically it makes your coffee into a mocha. But healthier than if you use hot chocolate powder.
@@amyfu2047 Thank you Amy. Happy Holidays
so refreshing to hear. at natures joint cacao this is exactly how we want people to feel. thats our mission to spread the awareness of the magical benefits of cacao. is a responsible way.
I have been using this for years and it works great for me. Thank you very much my Doctor.
I have now started using this in the turmeric - ginger (and more) solution I have been drinking the last few days to help with pain and inflamation. The taste of the cacoa adds to make it more drinkable. Thank you for producing these videos.
Yet another youtube university student
Where do you buy it?
I found cacao powder at Walmart.
Been drinking it in my coffee in the morning for about a year now. Don’t really know if it is helping anything but I want to do good things for my body and I trust Dr Mandell so I’m gonna keep drinking it.
Keep it going. Health Strategies work as long as you follow them indefinitely.
❤I make pudding with that, gelatin powder, coconut milk, vanilla bean paste and a natural sweetener like honey or real maple syrup ❤You give me the ideas l need to up my nutrition game. Thanks ❤
What is cacao
Get cocoa powder in the grocery store baking aisle
Gelatin gives collagen. I also add some chia gel & use regular milk, found of benefit to body builders
Try using coconut sugar. It’s actually good(organic coconut sugar)
Yes! I'm so glad I've been drinking this EVERY DAY, religiously, for almost 10 years. I just can't live without it.
How do you prepare it plz
@@uniqueartbybernadette I mix the following in a small pot: 1 tbsp of organic cacao powder, 1 cup of milk (I prefer almond milk), 1-2 tbsp of organic raw honey, 1 tbsp of organic coconut oil, 1 tbsp of bone broth powder (flavorless). Heat it up a little bit, not too hot.
Thank you as always Dr Mandell for all your amazing health videos. I feel if more people watched your videos and then paid attention they would be in much better health. I love Cacao.
Your advice Doc is the best here on UA-cam! I use this product in my protein shakes before I go to the gym! It supposedly helps with testosterone levels! Thanks 🙏 again Doc! You’re the best!!! ❤
I started taking 1 teaspoon of cacao before breakfast and dinner for it's vascular benefits but almost immediately noticed a huge improvement in my IBS and after a few weeks my low back pain has improved as well. When I started taking it 8 didn't even know about the other benefits other than for vascular so it was a pleasant surprise when it helped my other ailments.
Good to know more from you Dr. Mandell. Now I will continue to drink Cacao
Greetings Dr. Mandell . I’ve been follower for year, I just want to say Thank you for giving your time to all of us, who wants to be better health wise. ❤❤❤❤ Happy Holidays to you and your wonderful family ❤❤.
TY for all you do to put these videos together to teach and inform us. Greatly appreciated.
I have a drink of it daily, as it’s acceptable on a ketogenic diet! Took a little patience to get adjusted to it after normal hot chocolate, but well worth it! Thanks Dr Mandel.
It’s so great if you mix hot water and then monk fruit with a little bit of heavy cream or coconut oil and two or three or four raw eggs! Oh my goodness it is like hot chocolate and so good for you!
I buy Cacep chocolate drops, made from 100% cacao, bitter and organic, from Tabasco, México. Sold on Amazon. Thank you, dear Doctor Mandell.
Watching from philippines..here in my home town..we always prepare tablea a cacao tablet..its our culture to have a chocolatte tablea .
I have been doing one once of 85% dark chocolate a day plus a tablespoon of organic cacao in my smoothie every day for 3 years..I always wonder about the Cadmium in it?😊
Edit:
Wonderful video as always! Thank you!!
Been taking cacao and cocoa powder for over 10 years
My guess was going to be Ceylon cinnamon 😂. Thanks for promoting cacao. I used to use it when I had access to it and could afford it. I knew it was better than cocoa because less processing but was unaware that it had that many health benefits👍
You were right, sweet cocoa in powder if it is not bitter lacks in all those nutrients he said it has, I am Mexican and had mex cacao and only the bitter one is appreciated for Schamanic indian healing
Ok@@hidearCellofGod
I mixed it with olive oil, daily,is the best food the activate me all the day
I make an organic cookie using Cacao. My family loves them!! Everyday we eat one.
Recipe please.
I have it everyday with groud flaxseed, honey and cinnamon. It is my go-to dessert on a banana.
Treat people the way you want to be treated. Talk to people the way you want to be talked to. Respect is earned, not given. By the way who will respect a stalker/ manipulator/ narcissist? NOBODY.
I have added up the various products to eat in order to stay healthy and it came up to about a wheelbarrow full just for one meal😁
Cacoa is also great for a good night sleep
I've tried it at 6pm (before my intermittent fasting window begin)
1- teaspoon of cacao
2- 3 spoonful of coconut milk
3- ½ teaspoon of monk fruit
wow!..Deep sleep at night , smooth bowel movement ☺️ and reduce of joint pain when i woke up in the morning 😍👍🏻... awesome!!! Alhamdulillah...will stick it as my life routine ..thank you Dr M 🥰✌🏻
Thanks I'm going to try that recipe .it sounds good and healthy and I got all of the ingredients too..and thank you too Doctor Mandel .👍
This sounds really tasty, I am going to give it a try.
I love cacoa. It makes great hot cocoa, using monk fruit. (I made homemade cacoa mix - 3/4 cup cacao, 1/2 cup monk fruit, and 1-1/2 cups powered milk. Mix together and keep in a jar.) Take a mug, add a heaping teaspoon of the mix, about 1/4 cup of water - microwave for 30 seconds - then add milk to fill the cup and reheat.) Best stuff ever.
When you smile you light up my day. And the information you present is just amazing and I love to try your new ideas that you present us
Thank you Dr Mandell
On keto I had a hard time not having sugar in my coffee. Unsweetened Coco powder was a game changer. Love my coffee now even more and no sugar!
In my second week of using cacao powder. I started it to hopefully reduce my ED problems. My moms side of the family tree has heart problems so I figured it can’t hurt with that either.
Thank you so much Doctor Mandell ! God blessed you and your family ❤️❤️❤️
I mix cacao powder and cocoa powder together in equal parts and store in a mason jar. I try to drink a cup of hot cacao/cocoa everyday 😋.
Thanks, Dr M! That’s new information to me. I’m always learning such new and beneficial things on your channel.❤
I use cacao nibs in yogurt and oatmeal. So good and crunchy like a seed.
Thank-you very much Doc. For explaining cocoa and cacao
Love - Honesty - Respect - Trust - Peace 💖💖💖
Maybe u should think about going to church this is a site for health not fellow ship....
Many thanks Dr. Mandell for your Health Knowledge to us!!
Also it contains magnesium which is a plus as well.
Good morning, Dr. Mandell! Many thanks for another informative vlog! ❤
I love raw organic Peruvian cacao powder in my morning stuff I eat , I love the way you make and talk abut health Sir, thank you so much...
Great info,thanks ,could you also please share some brand which are good quality thanks
❤great stuff, Cacao. I have replaced my coffee with it and used almond milk. As the good Dr says, sprinkle it on every fruit and cereal. WCL
It is wonderful, but be aware many brands contain high levels of cadmium and lead, mostly cacao from central and South America... do your research, especially if you choose to eat it daily like I do. 😊
As well as pesticides banned in the US like DDT and parathion! Funny how this clown is promoting this stuff when he also doesn't report the downsides. Typical!
Thank you. What brand of cacao does not have cadmium or lead?
I would assume brand name brands would not ruin their company with harmful products
I see studies online of already prepared dark chocolate bars, but not powder. Where do you get this data?
@@evakonigsberg9521 they all have some - but Valrhona, Ghiradelli, Target's brand, Nestle Toll House & Whole Food's 365 have the least of the cocoa powders.
I mix it in my greek yogurt , its delicious! 😊
How much should we consume? Thankyou Dr. Mandell
Started having 2 cups of unsweetened cacao powder in hot water each night with one of the cups adding Ceylon cinnamon
Love it
Hi Dr. Mandell Thank you for showing us the positive side of Cacao powder But there is a dark side, it has been reported that Lead and cadmium are the two heavy metals found in this powder ...can you comment on this and is there a "better" Cacao with safer amounts of these metals? Thank you
@nickdelre8958 Hope all is well, I saw it in the news too in some brand that were tested, nothing to worry much so e of the people in the world probably been using and drinking cacao long before someone decided to test and put it out there a d we just now know it at the present time, hate to tell you everything out there on the shelf and online teas, powders, spices, supplements, cereals and so forth has all contaminants even organic foods, do research you'll find out on each of the product we purchased and it's origin, the soil contaminant where it grow, where the source of the product cne from but there are tons of them out there. What about meat, eggs, processed food and their hard to pronounce ingredients listed, coffee too, medicine that we take if you research the ingredients, I know the Prednisone they called steroid has ethanol it also has a lot of side effects, I'm very sure there are more harmful ingredients in some meds guess that explains why nobody is getting better but worse, how about Fluoride in water we drink in tap water and some bottled water find out and it will shock you it is far worse than the simple cacao. Everything out there is out to take down our health unless you grow your own and knows to preserve your own they have to put these ingredients out there to maintain freshness and shelf life. We just have to thank GOD everyday that we still have life can't worry about every little thing because organic or not we don't know who's telling the truth on their label. Motivational doc Mandell helping us doing what he does best at his end and we appreciate it easier that way looking his motivational vids we are busy working and just plain busy from getting busy we can do the same through google. I still worry about everything lol😊We all need to be well and live a long healthy life. We just need to pray and put GOD first in our lives thanking HIM every day GOD bless you🙏
I'm drinking cacao powder without sugar and empty stomach everyday.. Hope it would make me healthier and had a longer life.
I think activated charcoal may be healthier. But I love my cacao!
God bless you Doctor Mandell! You are giving hope to people, removing their anxiety. Jesus loves you, probably he is pleased for helping this people!
Dr Mandelll,we are forever grateful ❤❤Thank you 🙏 🙏
I did not know about this benefits and I have been drinking pure cacao daily!
There are two kinds of cacao. One is better than the other, but I do not remember the brand. I heard about Dutch cacao , and I don't remember it is good or bad. What brand of cacao do you use?
I read years ago good for fighting cancer
Good morning ☀️ Doc !!
I used to consume cacao in some drinks and over oats but stopped do to kidney stones > still confused 🫤
Thank you for your hard work dear dr Mandell > we 🌍 Love you. ♥️💞🕊️
I heard not enough water is #1 with kidney stones
Does cacao cause kidney stones?
@@cchemmes-seeseeart3948 depending in specific cases mine at beginning try drinking mostly just water and after 3rd surgery I found out that if kidney disease is 2nd stage we’re not supposed to drink too much water..
( anyway it did help in dissolving stones warm water with lemon 🍋) not any more, I can’t drink too much water.
@@nubiawalker246 my Urologist suggested to stop everything dark, including cacao coffee tea etc…
@@cchemmes-seeseeart3948 I used to drink enough water and stones still formed, the problem was that when surgeon sent stones to the lab 🧪 didn’t even show what were they made of 😕
Cacao in my daily smoothie for 14 yrs now.
This is a good reminder thank you Doctor
Raw cacao with Kiefer milk cinnamon, sugarcane sugar and a liquid of your choice. Doing that for about a month now. And already starting to see significant health improvements.
I’m thankful for dr Mandell. APTTMH ❤❤❤for cacao 😊
