Dark Chocolate...Fact or Fiction

"Dark chocolate health benefits include a unique effect on a person’s blood pressure. Evidence suggests that people with mild cases of high blood pressure can help to lower it by eating more dark chocolate. However, dark chocolate cannot take the place of treatments prescribed by a medical professional. Additionally, it’s not a good idea to overeat dark chocolate, as doing so can lead to tooth decay and unwanted weight gain."

Fact -
benefits include a unique effect on a person’s blood pressure.
Fact -
dark chocolate cannot take the place of treatments prescribed by a medical professional.

And here's where things get tricky...if you're just hanging around snacking on a traditional heat processed dark chocolate bar from your local grocer, you will have to worry about tooth decay and most of it going straight to your hips!

However...

When you introduce Xocai Healthy Chocolate into your life...not only do you get the above stated facts, but you can also look forward to DROPPING POUNDS rather than gaining them...and
A study out of the University of Osaka Graduate School of Dentistry in Osaka, Japan found that after four days of rinsing with a cocoa flavanol extract without other oral hygiene methods (such as brushing or flossing) participants had decreased bacteria and plaque on their teeth*1.

While we DO NOT recommend substituting cacao rinses for regular brushing...I just wanted to point out the FICTION aforementioned statement!!!

For more HEALTH BENEFITS of Xocai Healthy Chocolate visit Dr Steve Warren!

Business Builders

Well friends, I'm not going to lie...building a business is hard work! The potential here is AMAZING...but it's like any other biz out there! You're not going to reap the rewards if you don't put in the time and effort!!! So, my advice for the day is to show it to your friends...but talking to complete strangers is definitely the way to go! They don't know you, and have absolutely no obligation to you. If they're truly interested, they'll let you know! And it's somehow easier to ask them to refer friends who might be interested, even if they're not!
For anyone who is following my blog, one of the sites I posted in my 1st message is incorrect. So here is the right one!

Xocai Healthy Chocolate...Sweet Sweet Success!

Hello again from chocolate land!!!
Just a quick note and another positive link!
So, my husband, kids and I went away for the weekend...and SOMEone forgot to pack the chocolate! Never in a million years did I think that we would miss it! I really, truly noticed a difference! The 1st morning wasn't bad, but the 2nd morning...I came to the realization that THIS was how I'd been feeling EVERY morning before we were introduced to Xocai! Not being sleeping worth a darn, getting out of bed and not being able to stand up straight as soon as I got out of bed. Who wants that!?!?
Lesson learned...DON'T FORGET TO PACK THE CHOCOLATE!!!
