Before Xocai came along, eating chocolate of any kind was not considered a very healthy choice, in spite of all of the recent research about dark chocolate that proves otherwise.

You can't blame doctors and nutritionists for their skepticism because the chocolate that most people purchase from their local store contains a lot of pretty unhealthy ingredients.

Commercial chocolate is typically loaded with wax, fillers and tons of sugar which causes it to contain a high caloric content that results in excess body fat, a factor in and of itself that leads to a host of other health-related problems like obesity, hypertension and diabetes.

So other than satisfying a guilty pleasure or a late night craving, the store-bought chocolate that we are used to just doesn't have any health benefits. But what if you could have your chocolate and eat it, too? Read on!

Xocai products are made with raw cacao that is non-alkalized and non-lecithinized to maintain it's high antioxidant value. A closely monitored and patented fermentation, drying and roasting process ensures that chocoholics receive all of the wonderful health benefits of dark chocolate from each piece.

If you still aren't convinced of the health benefits of dark chocolate, then please take a moment to review just some of the things that make dark chocolate so good for you:

1. Cacao beans are one of the most complex foods on the planet, containing over 300 chemically identifiable compounds.

2. Unprocessed, raw cacao is considered to be the #1 super food in existence because it contains the highest ORAC value, or antioxidants, of any food substance on the planet.

3. Dark chocolate contains vitamins like A, B1, C, D E, and minerals like potassium, calcium, and iron, that allow our bodies to function properly.

4. The flavonoids in cacao can help reduce the risk of getting heart disease by significantly reducing fats from blocking the arteries, and these flavonoids have been known to reduce the risk of cancer.

5. The chemicals in dark chocolate brighten your mood, increase happiness and alertness, and have the capacity to reduce pain and reduce fatigue.

These are just a few of the healthy benefits of consuming dark chocolate. But of all the findings though, the antioxidant content of Xocai is the most significant.

As we are all aware of by now, antioxidants stop the negative effects of free radicals in the body. In the past, eating huge quantities of fruits and vegetables was the only way to get our bodies daily requirement of antioxidants. But now, eating Xocai chocolate can be advised as well!

Each piece of this healthy dark chocolate deliciously delivers 100% of the full antioxidant value of cacao without the fat, wax, fillers, preservatives and high sugar content of regular chocolate. By enjoying just three decadent pieces per day, you can turn your once guilty pleasure into a healthy habit!
