Each employee is important to the success of the Company and the customers we service. Our relationship is one of interdependence. We depend on each other to get the work done. Therefore, it is important that employees report to work each day as scheduled.
Contrary to popular opinion, cacao is a poor source of caffeine. A typical sample of cacao nibs or cacao beans will yield anywhere from zero caffeine to 1,000 parts per million of caffeine (less than 1/20th of the caffeine present in coffee).
Plants such as coffee, tea and cacao contain caffeine. Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system promoting wakefulness by competing for adenosine receptors. Adenosine is produced by the body to promote sleep and constrict blood vessels to allow more oxygen into the brain during sleep. Caffeine is a molecule that is similar in shape to the adenosine molecule.
