The cacao bean contains magnesium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, chromium, and B vitamins, among other nutrients. The amino acid Tryptophan occurs naturally in cacao. Tryptophan is, among other things, essential for the production of Serotonin. Cacao also contains the substance Phenylethylamine (PEA), a chemical that the body produces when falling in love; this is likely the reason why chocolate and love are often associated with each other.
