What the brand says
<p>This is pure Theobromine extract. Do not confuse this with mere Cocoa extract. Theobromine is extracted FROM Cocoa. The purest, most concentrated theobromine you will find is right here. <p>Theobromine is the primary alkaloid found in cocoa and chocolate. Cocoa powder can vary in the amount of theobromine, from 2% theobromine to at least 10% usually having higher concentrations in "dark" than "milk" chocolate. Theobromine can also be found in small amounts in the kola nut (1.0-2.5%), the guaranaberry, ilex guayusa, ilex paraguariensis (yerba mate), and the tea plant. Despite its name, theobromine does not contain bromine.</p> <p>Theobromine has been identified as one of the compounds contributing to chocolate's reputed role as an aphrodisiac.</p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Danger to Pets</strong></span></p> <p>Animals that metabolize theobromine more slowly, such as dogs, can succumb to theobromine poisoning from as little as 50 grams of chocolate for a smaller dog and 400 grams for an average-sized dog. The same risk is reported for cats as well, although cats are less likely to ingest sweet food, having no sweet taste receptors. Complications include digestive issues, dehydration, excitability, and a slow heart rate. Later stages of theobromine poisoning include epileptic-like seizures and death. If caught early on, theobromine poisoning is treatable. Although not usual, the effects of theobromine poisoning, as stated, can become fatal.</p>
