Cocoa seems to have come from the Amazon basin (nothing to do with the giant tech company though), but it is a huge area located in South America.

The first traces are found in Central America and more particularly in Mexico in the Yucatan peninsula and in the Orinoco basins.

Originally cultivated by the Mayans (250 AD to 900 AD), this people had found multiple uses for cocoa: beans as a bargaining chip and a bitter, fortifying and alleged aphrodisiac: Xocoatl, the “drink of the Gods“.

Now, cocoa is well known for its use in the form of chocolate.

Indeed, cocoa contains vitamin E and flavonoids which exert a natural antioxidant activity fighting against aging of the skin.

Cocoa also contains proteins which have hydrating properties, and pure unsaponifiables, extracted from cocoa butter, which stimulate fibroblasts for the synthesis of collagen and elastin essential for the firmness of the skin.
