What are the harmful effects of Theobroma Cacao?
I only have that it is poisonous to most animal species I can't find much more.

Best answer:

Answer by Math & Engineering Guinness
Cacao (Theobroma cacao) (Mayan: kakaw, Nahuatl: Cacahuatl), or the cocoa plant, is a small (4–8 m or 15–26 ft tall) evergreen tree in the family Sterculiaceae (alternatively Malvaceae), native to the deep tropical region of the Americas. Its seeds are used to make cocoa and chocolate.

With this I am not sure where you find that this may be poisonous.
