"Healhy Chocolate"

Xocai - Ultimate Antioxidant Treats Combining the word "chocolate" with the word "healthy" a few years ago would have sounded like quite a misnomer to the uneducated. My how times have changed!

Today, one of the fastest growing trends is antioxidant rich dark chocolate! Many studies have proven the enormous benefits of healthy dark chocolate.

The Greek term "Theobroma Cacao" literally means "Food of the Gods."

Cacao, or Chocolate, originated with the Olmec Indians in 1500 B.C.

Mayans and Aztecs used cacao in a royal chocolate drink called Xocolatl. Xocolatl progressed to a favored beverage of the European elite.

"The divine drink builds up resistance and fights fatigue. A cup of this precious drink (cacao) permits a man to walk for a whole day without food." Montezuma ll.

From antiquity to the present, chocolate has been one of the most beloved products, and for more than 90% of its history chocolate has been consumed as a beverage.

Although many health benefits have been attributed to chocolate during its 3,500-year history, the full extent of its contributions to human health is only now being brought to light through modern technology and research.

In a world that is turning to natural solutions for better health, the fastest growing sector of the trillion dollar health industry is functional beverages.

People who have been marketing these functional beverages refer to them as "liquid gold".

Unprocessed dark cacao is teeming with antioxidants. The USDA has rated unprocessed cocoa powder with a chart-topping 26,000 ORAC value per 100 grams! The next closest contender is the Acai berry at 18,500 ORAC.

Combining these two ingredients in a natural way that maintains the high ORAC values of antioxidants is what has made Xocai the very best products anywhere to help people destroy the free radicals and inflamation in their bodies and live much healthier and happier lives.

The addition of sugars, preservatives, and super heating of traditional dark chocolate has robbed it of its health benefits. MXI's goal is to change all that and help people radically improve their health.
