Picking the right chocolate



Chocolate can be good for you if you pick the right kind.

“Regular” vs. Healthy Chocolate

So why are most chocolate products not really “healthy”? Primarily because of the way their content is processed. Traditional processing means that the chocolate is heated, alkalized and combined with artificial and unhealthy ingredients, all of which destroys the cacao’s powerful antioxidants and degrades it’s nutritional content.

What’s Wrong With “Normal” Chocolate?

  • Alkalizing (also called “dutching”) neutralizes its antioxidants
  • Heating further destroys its antioxidants and other vital nutrients
  • Addition of waxes, milk solids, hydrogenated oils and sugar further degrade the antioxidant firepower of cacao

Why is Xoçaí Healthy Chocolate Different?

  • Proprietary cold-processing preserves antioxidants and other crucial nutrients
  • Does not alkalize its chocolate
  • Uses only natural cocoa butter, sweeteners and other natural ingredients
  • Contains no artificial ingredients
  • Category creator and leader of healthy chocolate industry
