Welcome to the World of Xocai!
The Mayans and Aztecs treasured and consumed cacao as early as 600 B.C. Later exported to Europe, it was reserved for the wealthy for centuries. Now we all can enjoy it, without excess sugar and fat, in innovative Xocai dark chocolate products.

Hello and thanks for visiting my Xocai site! My name is Michelle and I live in Indianapolis. I've always been a healthful eater and strive to provide healthy meals for my family. But for years and especially since the birth of my son, my guilty pleasure has been chocolate--and lots of it. I was delighted to find that there is one chocolate, Xocai, that we don't need to feel guilty about. In fact, I've lost weight while "taking it" and it's given me more caffeine-free energy than I've had in years.

Minimally processed and completely satisfying, Xocai curbs sweet cravings with a low glycemic index and the highest ORAC value per serving of any food supplement. Our products provide a primary source of fiber, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids vital for good health in addition to key vitamins and minerals. Eight product choices make it varied, easy-to-take, and portable. Unlike supplements, I never forget to take it--come on, it's CHOCOLATE!

All Xocai products combine the antioxidant benefits of the finest, all-natural European cocoa powder with those of the Amazonian a?ai (AH-sigh-EE) berry. With 10 times the antioxidants of grapes and over 7 times the antioxidants of blueberries, the Brazilian A?ai berry is considered to be the most nutritious fruit on earth.

Xo?ai is the perfect delivery system for combining potent antioxidants in dark chocolate and acai. The processed chocolate found in store brands is laden with fat, wax, fillers, and sugar. Heat-processing ("dutching")chocolate actually destroys over 50% of its antioxidant capacity. Xo?ai products deliver the full antioxidant capacity of dark chocolate without the fat, wax, fillers, and high sugar content normally associated with chocolate while the patented cold-processing allows retention of 100% of its antioxidant and nutritional value. Xocai is a natural food, a whole food, and a raw food.

Dark chocolate has long been called an antidepressant, an energy booster, a euphoriant, a toner, and by many chocolate lovers, a health food. Medical evidence is now bearing this out. Cacao is a virtual pharmacopoeia containing hundreds of biologically-active constituents. Dark chocolate is a balanced food containing the three food categories: carbohydrates (including fiber), proteins, and fats. It also naturally contains considerable amounts of vitamins and minerals essential to good health. Xocai is the only product that retains the full nutritional value of raw cocao.

Studies indicate that the primary antioxidants in chocolate, flavonols and procyanidins, may have anti-carcinogenic effects. These polyphenolic antioxidants serve to "mop up" or "scavenge" charged oxygen and other free radicals, major contributors to constantly-occurring cellular damage and a host of diseases attributed to aging. They have a positive effect on lipid metabolism, which may contribute to cacao's anti-inflammatory properties. Dark chocolate has been shown to inhibit LDL oxidation better than red wine and green tea as well as some vegetables and is likely to give the same cardiovascular protection as these foods. It appears to reduce platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction as well. It can thus be considered a 'functional food' to help reduce coronary heart disease, especially for those with elevated cholesterol levels. The saturated fat in cocoa is not effectively absorbed by the body and is harmlessly excreted. What is not excreted is converted by the body into oleic acid, a heart-healthy fat also found in olive oil.

Xocai is naturally caffeine-free. But a related phytochemical, theobromine, stimulates the central nervous system, relaxes smooth muscles and aids heart action. Recent studies suggest it also aids in reducing coughs. Chocolate heightens intellectual activity and focus, and awakens the brain to stimulate serotonin, a neurotransmitting hormone. Another constituent of chocolate, phenylethylamine, along with serotonin assist in correcting nervous depression. Substances in dark chocolate stimulate endorphin secretion and promote a general sense of well being. These substances relieve cravings independent of hunger as well. A hot area of research, scientific findings are being released almost weekly revealing additional benefits of consuming dark chocolate.

It is no wonder that people are naturally drawn to chocolate!
