Joe shares his experience with Natcha Cacao and how it supports his high-performance routine.
Cacao and Physical Performance: Joe Welch’s Experience as a Muay Thai Fighter
In the world of high-performance sports, every detail matters — what you eat, how you recover, and the rituals that connect you to yourself can make all the difference.
For Joe Welch, cacao has been a transformational discovery.
Cacao as an Ally for Body and Mind
Joe trains intensely every day, facing the pressure of staying focused and energised. That’s when he discovered Natcha Nibs – pure, artisanal, ceremonial cacao, grown sustainably and honestly in Ecuador.
Since incorporating it into his daily routine, Joe has noticed:
- Improved performance during training
- Increased physical endurance
- Faster muscle recovery
- Greater mental clarity and focus
This is no ordinary drink. Cacao is rich in magnesium, theobromine, antioxidant flavonoids, and bioactive compounds that support heart health, circulation, and the nervous system.
Natural, Honest, and Free from Artificial Stimulants
Unlike energy drinks or synthetic supplements, Natcha's ceremonial cacao offers a natural, sustained source of energy — without the anxiety spikes or sleep disturbances.
For Joe, it has become part of his daily ritual.
Whether in a hot drink before training or as part of a post-workout smoothie, cacao is now his companion for strength and wellbeing.
Beyond the Body: Connection and Purpose
What Joe values most is not only the physical benefits but knowing that each cup supports small-scale farmers in Ecuador — people who cultivate cacao with love, honesty, and deep respect for the land.
“Feeling the energy of cacao in my body, knowing it comes from an ethical source, makes me train with more intention. It's not just food – it’s part of my purpose.” — Joe Welch
