Cacao is an amazing superfood to add nutrients to your body, and focus to your mind!

Tahini, raw sesame seed paste, is one of the richest vegan sources of calcium, and are very important to have in a “clean” diet, especially if you are avoiding dairy.  Sesame seeds are rich in Vitamin E, Folic acid and B-complex vitamins such as niacin which enhances GABA activity in the brain reduces anxiety, and provides for a better night’s sleep.
