This is where I get Geek. Remember how I talked about “Theodent” in my last blog post? Well this is the molecular compound of Theobromine, which is what is in the cacao bean. Theobromine is good for lots of health reasons (google them) and one of them being, increasing lung function which makes it great for asthma.
Two weeks ago I was out in Telluride, CO at 9500k+ feet and usually at that altitude, I am really struggling. Struggling to breathe, struggling to walk fast to keep up with my friends in the cold and struggling with muscle pain and headaches. Since I’ve been consuming theobromine in this crazy Xocai chocolate I eat as part of my diet, I actually had no headaches, no muscle pain and weakness and no asthma at all! I actually ran up a slope just for kicks to see if I could do it. I did it, with no issues at all. It was like I was at sea level. I was shocked. Turns out big pharma is trying to create a drug out of it too. Its going to cost consumers a heck of a lot of more money I bet. Big Pharma tries to replicate nature, HA. Nature already won.

I love this chocolate and theobromine. Thank you theobromine. You are the fuel for my mountains.
