Recent Japanese research points to cacao powder as a fat-burning superfood with lots of promise. Cacao is loaded with flavonoids, and one in par-ticular, known as flavan-3-ols, seems to boost the production of enzymes involved in burning fat.When you’re making your daily protein shake, try throwing in a couple tablespoons of raw cacao powder, which has more active ingredients than other forms of cocoa. Two tablespoons of the stuff has only 40 calories, with two grams of fiber and two grams of protein.
