The Man on a Mission to Make Cacao the New Coffee

A man from Withington, Manchester, is on a mission to make cacao the new coffee. Spiritual healer and founder of FULL POWER CACAO, Liam Browne, has been a pioneer of the South and Central American ceremonial drink ever since discovering its healing properties in Guatemala in 2012 and is now one of the biggest suppliers in the UK.

Liam Browne, known by many as ‘The Cacao Guru’, is a spiritual healer, yoga teacher, author, podcaster, Founder of Stone Cold Sober Retreats and Festivals and a cacao advocate. When on a visit to Guatemala for the end of the Mayan calendar in 2012, he met the ‘Chocolate Shaman’ on the majestic Lake Atitlan and after being introduced to the magic of cacao, his life was forever changed.

Liam said: “I cannot recommend cacao and its health benefits enough. I first started testing and researching different origins thoroughly in 2019. After searching throughout the Central and South American regions,

I ethically sourced the authentic, powerful, magical, and heartopening plant medicine from Venezuela and set out to share it with as many people as possible.” Cacao comes from the edible seed of the cacao tree, which is native to tropical regions such as Central and South America and has been used by indigenous people for centuries due to its healing properties and health benefits. Its Greek name, Theobroma Cacao, literally means ‘Food of the Gods’ and is now classed by many as a superfood that can be enjoyed in warm drink form.

Cacao can ease anxiety, apathy, depression, headaches, insecurity, irritability and more and is good for your mood, blood, and the heart.

Liam explained: “There are so many benefits of cacao. It’s a natural antidepressant due to the magnesium and potassium and it also has beneficial natural compounds such as serotonin, phenylethylamine and anandamide — which enhance moods. It’s also packed with flavonoids that lower blood pressure, improve the blood flow to the heart and brain and help reduce the risk of dementia.”

He continued: “Cacao contains 23% natural protein and 33% fibre. It has 15 times more antioxidants than blueberries, is great for the skin and is also a powerful aphrodisiac. The benefits are endless and it’s becoming more popular as a healthy alternative to coffee.”

Liam is on a mission to share the medicine with a website and an online shop and commercial supply to cafes, restaurants and shops. He also hosts Cacao Ceremonies, incorporating sacred shamanic and yogic traditions with his own twists, and offers Cacao Teacher Training Courses. He has Teacher Training courses scheduled for the rest of the year.
