The MXI Corporation is launching it's first Healthy Chocolate that has been created for a purpose. XoBiotic.

Science and studies have proven that probiotics are delivered more efficiently to the gut via chocolate than traditional methods (pills, yogurt).

Cost Comparisons: Xocai vs CocoaVia

2009-01-30T14:01:00.000-08:00

Xocai Vs. CocoaViaWant even more proof there is a strong future in healthy chocolate? Mars has released their own version called CocoaVia with a chocolate bar that contains a meager 100mg of flavanols

Studies show that you need between 600mg to 900mg of flavanols to begin obtaining any health benefits.

A day's serving of Xoçai Healthy Chocolate contains over 1,000mg of flavanols.

You need a whopping 13 CocoaVia chocolate bars to equal the power of just 3 Xoçai X Power Squares!
Xoçai has less calories: You can either have 1,300 calories of CocoaVia, or just 100 calories with Xoçai .

Xoçai is lower in fat: You can have a whopping 78 grams of fat with CocoaVia or just 6 grams of fat* with Xoçai .

Xoçai is diabetic friendly: CocoaVia is loaded with a whopping 117 grams of sugar compared to only 6 grams of a low glycemic sweetener* with Xoçai .

Xocai costs less: 13 bars of CocoaVia will set you back $13 a day! That is $390 a month! Or you can chose to spend just $2.64 a day for 3 decadent, guilt-free, diabetic friendly Xoçai X Power Squares.

If you want the health benefits of flavanoid-rich cocoa without all of the bad ingredients such as white sugar, Xoçai is the only choice!

You have to ask yourself, why is Mars getting into "healthy chocolate"? Because they know that everyone wants guilt-free chocolate!

Xoçai is truly far superior to anything else on the market. If you want healthy chocolate for you and your family, the only choice is Xoçai !

*Xoçai products utilize natural sweeteners such as raw cane, blueberries and red grapes. Cocoa butter, used exclusively in Xocai products, is a special type of saturated fat. It is neutral and does not increase cholesterol or put weight on you.

Mars and Healthy Chocolate

While Xocai's Doc Warren has been researching Healthy Chocolate and educating us so that we can share the word, Mars has been doing their own research and concocting.

Check out the Mars Corp. website at http://www.healthycocoa.com/.

Now, does this mean that Mars' Healthy Chocolate CocoaVia is going to give Xocai's Healthy Chocolate a race? I don't think so. Mars' CocoaVia is decidedly healthier than the famous Mars Bar, but the arguments remain strongly in Xocai's favor as a superior nutritional product.

Did you Know?

In the Dec 2008 "alive" magazine, "Canada's Natural Health and Wellness Magazine", writer Bruce Burnett, CH wrote:

The botanical name for marsh mallow, Althaea officinalis, is Greek for "to cure". Pliny the elder (23 to 79 AD), naturalist and philosopher, said, "Whosoever shall take a spoonful of mallow shall be free from all diseases that may come."

It is known to counteract many intestinal problems, relieve dry coughs, bronchial asthma and congestion, allergic rhinitis and pleurisy. It is also rich in antioxidants, and as a topical ointment is used to treat inflamed skin, boils and abscesses and reduce skin aging.

And you thought Marsh Mallow was just a sweetie!

Just like chocolate.................its origins date back thousands of years to ancient Mesoamerica. the Mayans and their ancestors discovered the health benefits of chocolate around 1500 BC. It was made into a paste with water, chili peppers and cornmeal to make a bitter drink used to treat stomach and intestinal complaints, infections, fever and coughs and boost energy and stamina.

Who'd ' thunk?

So, if we put marshmallows in our hot chocolate, we must have one terrific health food, right?

Maybe we are onto something here.....if only we could eliminate the unhealthy ingredients in both (like refined sugar).

Well, Xocai does offer a healthy sipping chocolate.

Does anyone out there offer a healthy marshmallow for my drink?

Yes, it has been quite a while, but I am back at it, finally.

On Jan 2 - 4, Dave and I flew to Las Vegas for a Xocai Convention. Yes, it was a sales convention, but I really do feel that the product and the people associated with Xocai are different. I have been in many sales positions, from retail to home sales, but I have never felt a more ethical, connected group of people. Everyone is willing to help everyone else acheive success. We are encouraged to be totally honest about the product as the science behind it speaks volumes.

Chocolate as a medicine or health food is not a new concept, but MXI is revisiting it with Xocai. Next month a new product is being launched ...... XoBiotic! Instead of reiterating what is best said by the company, please check out this link: http://www.mxicorp.com/products/xobiotic/index.html

One very interesting point came out of the convention. Most successful MLM companies got their start during a depression / recession. So, as well as having a fantastic product that no one else has, this company is positioned to hit the roof once the recession is over. Even with the current economic condition, record sales are being recorded regularly, AND, it just opened up in the UK this past Monday.

So........come for the product, but stay and flourish with the opportunity!

Mono

2008-12-10T15:22:00.000-08:00

So, my son, Casey, called us just before his first training camp (Nov 27 - Dec 1) and race series in West Yellowstone to tell us he would not be competing. He had mono. As he is going to school in Albuquerque, NM on a x-country ski scholarship, this was a major setback. Not only was he struggling with fatigue and a sore throat as he went to classes, but now he could also not do anything physical for a while. This was a big disappointment to him, being an elite athlete.

For the last 2 months, I have been sending him Xocai chocolate, and he has been consuming it on a regular basis. When he went to the doc at the University for tests to see what he had, it was definite that he had mono, but his spleen was not enlarged.

Within 2 weeks of the diagnosis, Casey said he was starting to feel a whole lot better and was going to start training again. I was surprised and apprehensive, but he assured me that the doc said he could resume his activities as soon as he felt well enough to do so.

I wondered if the fact that he was eating Xocai was the reason that the mono did not seem to be as acute as it could have been. Xocai is chock full of antioxidants.....is that why his spleen had not enlarged? I have posed the question to Doc Warren, the validating voice of Xocai, and am waiting for a reply.

I am anxious to hear what he has to say!

Xocai has a product called Sipping Chocolate. This used to be a treat reserved only for the aristocrats. It is a very thick, dark drink somewhat served in modest portions.....meant to be savoured and sipped.

The first time I tried it, I thought, "Hmmmmm, not very sweet."

On the second sip, I thought, "Yummmmmmmm, not too sweet, just perfect!"

Then, I did some experimenting, and made some scrumptious sipping chocolate with XPower Squares. This makes me believe that you could probably use the nuggets, also, to make a decadent drink.

This was the method suggested for the Sipping Chocolate:

* put 1.5 tablespoons sipping chocolate in a mug

or a nugget, or 2 squares XPower squares

* add a couple tablespoons of milk

* microwave on mid high (depending on wattage) for 30 - 45 sec

* remove from microwave and stir to make a thick syrup

if concoction is still lumpy, microwave for 15 or so seconds more and stir

* add 3/4 c. milk to the syrup, stir and microwave to sipping heat

Just make sure not to overheat and destroy the antioxidants in this elixir.

Enjoy and strut around with your chocolate milk mustache!!

History of Cacao

Article from Outpost Magazine Nov / Dec 2008

HOT CHOCOLATE HAS BEEN WARMING OUR PALATES AND HEARTS FOR CENTURIES

There is a long history of cherishing chocolate --- a food item whose origins can be traced back to the ancient world of the Mayans. In the 1400s, the Aztec ruler Montezuma drank a cocoa elixir in a golden goblet before special occasions. It's not surprising that the Aztecs so loved their chocolate. They considered cocoa (or cacao) to be a gift from the God Quetzalcoatl, and it was revered as both the food of the gods and a means of currency.

Emperor Montezuma enjoyed a cocoa concoction called xocolatl, a foamy mixture of chocolate, vanilla and spices, including chilies, which gave this hot chocolate a little extra heat. He typically sipped it before entering his harem, forging the first (but not last) mythical link between chocolate and other earthly pleasures.

The Spanish began to export the beans back to Europe but it wasn't until the 17th century that a chocolate-drinking craze spread through the spanish court. Spaniards began adding sweeterers to the mix and calling their favourite brew "chocolate". The addictive treat later made its way to Europe, where it was further refined.

Cocoa trees thrive in the world's rainforest -- the moist heat and shade from the other trees help them flourish -- and today most commercial cocoa and chocolate is imported from hot-weather areas such as the Ivory Coast and Ghana.

While Mexican cocoa beans are not the most coveted, the country can proudly claim itself the birthplace of chocolate. And the tradition of Xocolatl is still strong in parts of the country. Mexicans enjhoy a mug of cocoa year-round, whether it's ground up by hand as their ancestors did, pr purchased in discs heavily scented with cinnamon and sugar and grated into hot water or milk. The chocolate is whipped to a froth with a carved wooden utensil called a molinillo and served in mugs. Having a layer of foam on hot chocolate is a must. If you want to spice things up, add a teaspoon of ancho chili.
