Cocoa got me high.

Hey everyone, yesterday I drank coffee for the first time in over a week or two. After being on antibiotics for around 2 weeks I was finally allowed to drink caffeine. When I finally french pressed a cup of organic sweet mexican coffee. After finishing the cup I immediately felt sick, I ran back and forth to the bathroom for 25 minuets. I started sweating and basically tweaking out so today I decided to try something else for my morning kick. I made a smoothie with berries, honey, hemp seeds and cocoa powder for flavor. After drinking the smoothie I felt so elevated. I felt clear headed and colors seemed brighter and I felt just sooo good. Stimulated but calm and cool at the same time. I ruled out all the other ingredients in the smoothie that would be responsible for this effect and I was left with the cocoa powder. After all the mayans called it the "food of the gods". I looked into the power of chocolate and found out that chocolate contains many feel good chemicals. So I decided to further experiment and I recreated a hot chocolate as the mayans would and sipped on that. I now feel absolutely fantastic, coffee has nothing on chocolate and I don't think I will go back.

Dude I was thinking about brewing my coffee with cocoa powder, but for now I'm switching to this. It feels a lot cleaner to me.

You can buy concentrated theobromine for dirt cheap. Cheaper than cocoa, but I'm sure it doesn't taste as good.

When I drink coffee it's literally 2 sips worth. I hate the way caffeine feels it's like shitty cocaine for me. I'm really affected by it for some reason.
I know a lot people that drink it. Like It's water. 
II Hardly even drink soda.

It's probably the juicing more than the cocoa I juice every morning and it's made me feel the same way as you everytime.

Which sucks I LOVE the way coffee tastes. I drink it black and you can never go wrong with a hazelnut and white chocolate Frappuccino.

I remember one time a homie of mine was working at a coffee shop. He gave me a quad shot of espresso. I literally felt like I was rolling. My eyes were shaking and everything. Came down so fucking hard though. Holy fuck. No thanks.

I got a really nice high going on after like 300mg of caffeine after a long break from it. It felt a bit like adderall, just toned down a notch or two. I have never been able to replicate it again

I'm just really susceptible to it. I dunno why but take an 8 Oz cup of coffee 2 tiny sips and I'm already jittery.
Coming from an ex heroin addict and general drug addict it's like wtf.

I thought about getting some before. Anyone here ever take a big dose of the powder??
I was curious about that

Hopefully I'll be able to drink coffee again someday. I love freshly grinding up cacao beans and using a 1:20 ratio of cacao to coffee. Favorite way to make hot brewed coffee.

Speaking of capsacin, I am about to make some buffalo sauce with some carolina reapers, current hottest pepper in the world.
The peppers themselves are actually really tasty for about 5 seconds, then it turns into flaming hell on tongue.
Not a fun of chili spiced chocolate though, neither am I a fan of spiced ice cream. I don't find them to synergize well, the milk in the ice cream/chocolate makes the spiciness non existent so it ends up tasting like shitty dollar store chili powder with chocolate mushed in.

Well it's just not the theobromine that makes you feel good there is also serotonin and anandamide which effects the brain like thc but to a lesser extent.

And also don't forget phenetylamine. Pure phentylamine in high doses taken with an mao-b inhibitor feels exactly like mdma. Tho it only lasts for 15 minutes or so.
I used to have a energy drink every day before work, now I just have 100 grams of 85% cocoa content belgian chocolate instead.

Are you saying those chemicals are in the cocoa itself? There are hardly any endogenous neurotransmitters that pass the blood brain barrier if they are not injected directly into the brain

Oh yea! I left out phenetylamine. Mescaline in the chemical family of phenetylamines which means cocoa is kick ass.

Well yea they're in the cocoa itself but then this might mean that they are pretty much inactive and don't do anything. If what you say is true then I wonder what role do these neurotransmitters play within the plant it self..

It's weird actually, serotonin is found in nearly all living things, even bananas. They play probably the biggest role out of all other chemicals besides DNA and oxygen when it comes to life on Earth

That is truly fascinating. After a year of my interest in botany I am starting to think as if the planet itself is a brain and every plant is a receptor of this brain communicating through chemical messages with itself much like our own brains do.
Too out there? Possibly.

Just order whole cacao beans. They'll probably have a slightly higher caffeine content. Then you should feel the cocoa.

Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Theobromine, FTW.
Dark chocolate is a staple in my diet, I consume about a bar a week, I like the 82% cocoa dark chocolate because it has the most benefits.
I also have raw cocoa nibs I put in Greek yogurt from time to time.
