In ancient times cacao was given to warriors for vigour to prepare them for battle. 

​

We might not be warriors from ancient times going out to fight, but I think it's fair to say that most of us lead very busy and stressful lives that can feel like a weekly battle. A little stress is actually ok but not long-term stress.

Fatigue can set in as well as other health problems like weight gain. It's really important to maintain a healthy lifestyle to combat stress and fatigue. Exercise and good nutrition are two key things needed to mitigate stress and improve wellness.

Also make sure to get enough good quality sleep and plenty of water to keep the body hydrated.

​

Warrior Cacao products are made with certified organic cacao, maca, carob plus other 

medicinal superfoods which boost energy, combats stress and fatigue and provides antioxidants, minerals, fiber and mood boosting molecules to support good health.

​

Warrior Cacao products are made with no added sugar and are dairy free. You can enjoy eating or drinking anything from the Warrior Cacao range and feel good that you are putting amazing superfoods into your body for better health. Having good health means that you will feel better, and your stress levels can naturally lower too.

 

Warrior Cacao helps you be battle ready as a modern-day warrior,

to power through your busy life & work schedule.

Who We Are

Hi, my name is Connie, I'm a football (soccer) mum to 3 boys,

Naturopath & Medical Herbalist, creator and owner of Warrior Cacao.

My passion for Theobroma Cacao began when I tasted my first cacao beans one day back in 2014. Yes, it all started with just a few little cacao beans. The taste was very bitter, similar to dark chocolate, fruity & earthy. After eating some more cacao beans that same day, I felt focused & energized.

I remember thinking, oh my gosh this has to be the best superfood ever... on the planet.

I started to research the incredible health benefits of cacao and the South American history of how cacao, (chocolate) was traditionally taken as a bitter drink & given to warriors for vigor to prepare them for battle.

I thought wow that's amazing. This inspired me to start making my own cacao drink. However, I just needed to find some warriors to test it out on.

A few years on and still looking for warriors, I started to share my cacao drink with friends, family & at my local community hub.

Still a few more years & countless football games later, here I am.

Now ready to share this nourishing cacao drink and other natural health cacao products with you.

I hope you will love it & experience all the powerful health benefits that cacao has to offer as well as feel...battle ready!
