🧠 A simple, affordable, and euphoric drink that stabilizes your blood sugar, balances your brain chemistry, and rewires cravings from the inside out.
Some of the greatest discoveries happen by accident — penicillin, microwaves, Post-It notes… and now, Cacao-amine™.
It was a busy Sunday afternoon.
My groceries were gone, my blood sugar was dipping, and I could feel the edge of that familiar sugar craving window — the moment when your body whispers…
“Just a little pick-me-up.”
Instead of running to the store for cookies 🍪, pastries 🥧, or ice cream 🍨, I scanned the kitchen for options.
Out of the corner of my eye, a jar of micronized L-glutamine caught my attention. That was the obvious first choice. But then… something new whispered. I grabbed a bag of organic raw cacao powder, mixed it with the glutamine and water — and created a drink that blew my mind.
It filled me up, leveled my blood sugar, erased my cravings, calmed my nervous system, and gave me a euphoric sense of peace, focus, and bliss.
I had invented a new 🛠️ tool for recovery — and I called it:
Cacao-amine™: The Neuro-Nourishing Anti-Craving Drink
Ingredients:
- 16–20 oz of pure water (spring, reverse-osmosis, or alkaline)
- 1 tablespoon organic raw cold-pressed cacao powder (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon micronized L-glutamine powder
Blend, shake, or stir — it mixes easily. You can drink it cold, sip it slowly, or even warm it gently for a “spiritual hot chocolate.”
⚡ Why Cacao-amine Works Like Magic (Even Though It’s Pure Science)
Cacao-amine isn’t just a drink. It’s a biochemical intervention.
It stabilizes blood sugar, replenishes neurotransmitters, nourishes the gut, and resets your reward circuitry — the same pathways hijacked by addiction, sugar, and stress.
Let’s break down how it works.
🔹 Part I: What is L-Glutamine?
L-glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in your body — and it’s absolutely essential for healing, energy, and brain balance.
It’s what your body uses to:
- 🧬 Rebuild the gut lining (crucial for neurotransmitter production)
- ⚡ Convert into glucose for steady brain energy
- ☯️ GABA and glutamate balance, the yin and yang of calm and focus
- 🚫 Reduce sugar, alcohol, and drug cravings
🧠 The Neurochemistry of “How Glutamine Fights Cravings”
When blood sugar dips, your brain screams for dopamine and quick energy — which often translates to “drink,” “snack,” or “scroll.”
Glutamine steps in as an emergency fuel source.
It can literally feed the brain without sugar, instantly calming those biochemical panic signals that drive impulsive craving behavior.
Think of it as your brain’s natural anti-craving buffer.
L-Glutamine & “Hypoglycemia”
Blood Sugar CushionLow blood sugar triggers cortisol and adrenaline — stress hormones that can cause anxiety, irritability, and relapse risk.
Glutamine stabilizes the internal environment, keeping you within your nervous system’s Window of Tolerance — that sweet spot of balance, focus, and flow.
L-Glutamine & “Addiction Recovery”
Gut–Brain RepairIn recovery, your brain is rebuilding. Neurotransmitters are low, digestion may be impaired, and cravings can feel overwhelming.
Supplementing with glutamine nourishes both the gut and the mind, helping restore homeostasis.
Many people notice fewer cravings within minutes of drinking it.
⚡ Why I Prefer “Micronized” L-Glutamine
Micronized powder has a finer particle size, meaning faster absorption, smoother mixing, and better digestion — no grit, no clumps, just instant assimilation.
Micronized texture, zero clumps. Normal glutamine would make me bloated. Not a good side effect lol. Pay extra for micronized. It’s worth it.
🍫 Part II: What is Cacao?
Cacao is often called “the food of the gods” — and for good reason.
This raw, unprocessed form of chocolate is packed with polyphenols, magnesium, iron, flavonoids, anandamide, and PEA (phenylethylamine)…
All compounds that:
- 😊🍫 Uplift mood
- 🧠🛡️ Protect the brain
- 💫🧬 Boost natural bliss chemistry
🍫 The Neurochemistry of “How Cacao Fights Cravings”
- Dopamine & Serotonin Support: Cacao increases both, helping stabilize mood and motivation.
- Anandamide (“The Bliss Molecule”): This endocannabinoid naturally elevates mood and reduces anxiety.
- PEA (Love Chemical): Boosts focus, drive, and feelings of pleasure — without the crash of stimulants.
- Magnesium & Polyphenols: Soothe the nervous system and fight oxidative stress.
Cacao & Addiction Recovery
During recovery, dopamine receptors are healing, serotonin is low, and anhedonia (the inability to feel pleasure) is common.
Cacao gently reactivates your pleasure circuitry in a natural way — offering emotional warmth, motivation, and grounding energy without dependency.

True raw cacao is one of nature’s richest sources of magnesium, polyphenols, and bliss molecules like anandamide and PEA — compounds that enhance focus, lift mood, and support dopamine naturally.
Unlike processed cocoa, organic cold-pressed cacao powder preserves the full spectrum of its antioxidants, flavonoids, and neuroprotective nutrients that calm the nervous system while fueling creativity and drive.
Raw, organic, and potent. This is the cacao that powers your Cacao-amine ritual with magnesium, polyphenols, and bliss molecules instead of processed sugar bombs.

⚗️ Part III: The Synergy of Combining Glutamine + Cacao
This is where the magic happens.
- Cacao uplifts mood, increases focus, and releases bliss molecules.
- Glutamine stabilizes blood sugar, calms stress, and fuels the brain.
- Together, they create 🧠✨ Neurochemical Harmony — calm but energized, full but not bloated, peaceful yet motivated.
Imagine dopamine, serotonin, and GABA dancing together in balance.
That’s Cacao-amine.

Cacao-amine™ FAQ — Safety, Use & Recovery
Click a question below to reveal the answer. This is general education, not medical advice — always check in with your healthcare provider about your unique situation.
Not at all. It nourishes your reward system instead of hijacking it. You’ll feel better, not because it hyper-stimulates dopamine, but because it helps balance it.
Over time, Cacao-amine can support a shift toward real rewards: peace, presence, and vitality instead of quick-fix hits.
Often, yes — many people enjoy Cacao-amine alongside coffee or other supplements — but it’s wise to be intentional. Cacao already contains small amounts of caffeine and theobromine, so if you’re sensitive to stimulants, keep your total intake modest and pay attention to how you feel.
It’s commonly paired with gentle allies like L-theanine, magnesium, or other recovery-supportive nutrients. If you take prescription medications, are pregnant, or have medical conditions, check with your healthcare provider before stacking.
For most people, 1–2 servings per day is plenty — for example, one in the late morning and one in the mid-afternoon as a craving buffer. Some people use it only on higher-risk days or during specific seasons of recovery.
If you notice jitters, sleep disruption, or digestive changes, reduce the dose or frequency and see how you do. Anyone with medical conditions or on medications should follow their provider’s guidance about how often to use it.
Cacao-amine can be a supportive companion during tapering — especially for cravings, low mood, and blood-sugar swings — but it is not a detox or withdrawal treatment and it doesn’t replace medical care, counseling, or a structured recovery plan.
If you’re tapering off alcohol, benzodiazepines, opioids, or any substance with serious withdrawal risks, work with a qualified professional and let them know everything you’re taking, including Cacao-amine. Think of it as nutritional and nervous-system support, not the primary treatment.
Many people feel a shift in 15–30 minutes — steadier energy, calmer focus, and fewer “grab something now” impulses. For others it’s more subtle at first and builds over a few days or weeks as blood sugar, gut health, and sleep improve.
Everybody’s nervous system is different. Treat it as an experiment: notice your cravings, mood, and energy before and after you drink it, and track what changes over time.
No — anyone working on cravings, emotional regulation, focus, or stress may find it helpful. Cacao-amine supports the gut–brain axis, neurotransmitters, and blood sugar whether you’re in formal addiction recovery or simply upgrading your lifestyle.
If you do have a history of substance use disorder, think of it as one tool in a bigger toolkit that includes connection, therapy or coaching, and nervous-system practices — not a stand-alone solution.
