Customer Reviews

Raw Cacao
Great product at the best price ever! Had to go back and order more.

AWESOME
Great in smoothies and as a base for my agave nectar chocolate syrup! Can't beat the price either!

HEADACHES, CHILLS, FLU SYMPTOMS
For two months I have been on meal replacements (walkers) which have made me feel perfect and satisfied. Well then I got the big idea to add "SUPERFOODS" like the maca, cacao and gojiberries. I got them all from nativas naturals, here at amazon.

I instantly had one of the worst headahces i ever had lasting six hours. I am surmising it is from the cacao since headaches have been reported with it on the internet. I am SICK---because i mixed this stuff in with all the meal replacments I have to buy them all again.

NEVER AGAIN will I add "superfoods" to my diet. The reaction is even worse than cooked and inferior foods.
