Is Xocai Chocolate Really Good For You?

03 Aug

West Lafayette Antioxidant ChocolateThis article from the Harvard Medical School may be of interest to the West Lafayette chocolate lover. You just might be pleased to see such a respected institution validate Xocai’s physiological benefits.

Here is an excerpt about endothelial function:

“The endothelium is the thin inner layer of arteries. It’s responsible for producing nitric oxide, a tiny chemical that widens blood vessels and keeps their linings smooth. Can chocolate help? Doctors in Greece think it may. They fed 100 grams of dark chocolate to 17 healthy volunteers and observed rapid improvement in endothelial function. Swiss investigators found similar effects from dark chocolate.

German scientists reported that flavanol-rich cocoa can reverse the endothelial dysfunction produced by smoking, and European doctors reported that dark chocolate appears to improve coronary artery function in heart transplant patients. There’s good news for nonsmoking, original-heart people, too, since Harvard researchers found that cocoa can blunt the endothelial dysfunction associated with aging.”

I am Ron Siovaila, an independent Xocai distributor based in West Lafayette, Indiana.

Remember, you don’t have to give up ‘New York Times chocolate’ to maintain health and vigor. You can think of Xocai antioxidant chocolate as a sweet treat or as a health supplement. Either way, it will benefit both your body and mind.

 
 

Reduce Stroke Risk With Chocolate

18 May

Heart Healthy Chocolate If you have been following my Lafayette healthy chocolate blog, you know that I sell Xocai antioxidant chocolate in West Lafayette. Xocai chocolate is a revolutionary health food. That’s right, I said Health Food. If you are skeptical about Xocai’s health claims, check this out.

Recently, Yahoo.com ran a story about stroke risk and chocolate consumption. Here is an excerpt from the story:

Yet another health benefit has been linked to eating chocolate: It may decrease your risk of stroke, a new study suggests. The analysis, which will be presented in April at the American Academy of Neurology’s 62nd Annual Meeting, reviewed the results of three previous studies. One study with more than 44,000 participants found that those who ate a weekly serving of chocolate were 22 percent less likely to suffer a stroke than those who ate no chocolate.

This article refers to a legitimate scientific study that used over 44,000 participants! And this is only one of the many studies that are attracting attention at Purdue University. Do a quick Google search and you will see reports on a multitude of studies.

Chocolate with a high percentage of cacao powder, such as Xocai antioxidant chocolate, is the type of chocolate that is most beneficial. And no chocolate product available in Lafayette has a higher percentage of cacao than Xocai.

How do you like your chocolate? As a bar? As a drink? As a cookie? Xocai has an antioxidant chocolate product for you. Xocai Nuggets, Xocai Omega Squares, Powerhouse Cookies, Xocai Protein Bars, Xocai Xobiotic Squares, and Xocai Activ are just a few of the products available to Purdue University, Lafayette and Tippecanoe County chocolate lovers and supplement customers alike.
