OMG! Xocai! The Healthy Chocolate?!

Did you know that one billion people ate chocolate yesterday? Did you know that one billion people would eat chocolate today? And tomorrow? Why not make it a healthier chocolate day?

I promise if you love chocolate, even if you just like chocolate, you are gonna love this blog! Read on!

As the title of this blog indicates, OMG! I found a healthier chocolate!
I cannot believe how lucky I am! I am a chocolate eater. I love eating it and smelling it. I even took a vacation to Hersey, PA to see how they made chocolate! So I guess you can call me somewhat of a chocolate LOVER!

When I went RAW, there was no RAW chocolate. Save dark unsweetened baking chocolate–Yuck! I thought that I would have to give up chocolate for life. But then, as I have reported in my books, the RAW food industry has been changing with the times growing 4 times in the last 5 years and well, this opened up the market to a lot of new products and ideas. VIOLA! RAW chocolate is one of those new ideas that hit the market!

But well, this new RAW chocolate was OK chocolate, but not so really great.
One day, I am in my office and I have a meeting with some website people who want to do a “healthy” website. So the gentleman I am meeting with asked me: “What about chocolate, do you like chocolate? Do you have a RAW chocolate you like?” So I go into a long narrative about chocolates. I bring out some for him to taste.
And I tell him, “Honestly? I don’t have a RAW chocolate that I love and I certainly cannot get my boyfriend to eat it!! I have been searching, and seriously, I try everything!” He then said, “Well, your search is over!” And he handed me a chocolate square. I was unimpressed. I told him I would save it for my boyfriend to try. But I didn’t. I could not give ANYTHING RAW to my boyfriend to try if I did not absolutely LOVE it myself. Even if I just liked something, he hated it but whenever I LOVED something, he did too!

So I tried this chocolate nugget wrapped in gold. It was like a giant piece of heaven stuck in my cheek! I looked like a chipmunk! I closed my eyes to really get a feel and taste. I decided that this chocolate was too amazing to be RAW. I then called my friend and asked him again: “This chocolate you left me, this chocolate with the gold wrapping. This nugget, are you SURE it is RAW? “Absolutely,” he said. But I still did not believe him. I went online and looked up the chocolate. It says it is RAW. Not only RAW, but full of antioxidants and more bioflavonoid than in leafy greens!

Xocai—hmmmm! ‘Xo’ pronounced ‘cho’ and ‘cai’ like the sound that it prompts “siiiiigh”. This is SERIOUSLY good chocolate. It tastes like regular chocolate.

But I do not want to compare it to regular chocolate because it is WAY more healthy! I mean, I am told that commercial chocolate has WAX in it. Ewwwww! Wax would seriously impair your stomach from digesting and your intestines from absorbing if they are coated with wax! Oh, and caffeine for a kick. Sugar for what? Weight gain?
And Milk for—I don’t know. I don’t even have an answer for that one.

When you taste this chocolate, you will not believe how amazing it is. Not one person I given it to has told me that they do not like it. And well, my own picky eater came to bed one night with the entire box and ate 25 pieces! He has since calmed down! LOL!

I have been eating RAW chocolate for 15 years. I have looked at it in every store; wherever there is RAW chocolate, I pick up that RAW chocolate and I try it. I do not have to do that ever again! I do not have to try or tolerate barely good chocolates just to satisfy my need for chocolate. I have found my nirvana and my nirvana is HEALTHY!

As I said, I wrote about RAW chocolate (the cocoa bean) in my second book. It is supposedly VERY healthy for you. In its RAW form, it works as an antioxidant. It has bioflavonoid and it has essential fatty acids in the form of cocoa oil. These fats are in their RAW state and that means they are very good at helping to rebuild and rejuvenate your body! Xocai chocolate is RAW! It is sweetened with Acai Berry, Goji Berry, and Blueberries. Blueberries are at the top of the antioxidant list. Many people ask me why it is important to look for foods with antioxidants. Well, think of it this way, without antioxidants the body “rusts.” Free radicals basically eat your body just like rust eats a car; or at least that is how I think of it. Antioxidants on the other hand, act as a wall between you and these pollutants trying to attack you. Give me that wall any day; especially if it is a wall of RAW Xocai chocolate!

I mean, free radicals are so bad for the body, even skin care lines boast to have antioxidants to protect the skin. Many doctors tell you to take your vitamins to get antioxidants and well, Green Tea has made a big splash with the fact that it is full of antioxidants! So in a nutshell, antioxidants are important. And well, I would rather eat a chocolate- RAW chocolate to be specific.

O.K., so you heard all about this chocolate and how healthy it is for you.
So here is the most important thing: Where can you buy Xocai? This is the worst part for me because I wish it was just available at, say, Whole Foods or even your health food store. But it is NOT. Xocai Chocolate is sold as an MLM– which means it is Mult-Level Marketing. Basically, you have to know somebody to get this chocolate. Yes, even I had to find someone who sold it in order to buy it. I was worried about this at first, for sure, as I had to give credit card info online. And it seemed expensive (that is until I realized that Godiva and other specialty chocolates can sell at as much as $3.00 a piece and it is not sold as being healthy).
I also thought about just a regular candy bar and again, it is not cheap. Even if Xocai may be a bit more expensive, it is being sold as HEALTHY and it is RAW and it is creamy, smooth, and just about the best dang RAW chocolate out there. So, thinking that I am worth being healthy, I signed up and bought it.

And as usually happens when I find something I just LOVE, I gave it away. Yeah, for free. I could not help myself. It was so amazing and so wonderful and it made so many people so happy to have a healthy chocolate, I was compelled to just give some pieces away. But that all came back to me when people wanted to buy it for themselves.
And this is where I learned about an MLM. I asked my girlfriend Bonnie to sign people up for me because I just thought I was lame at paperwork. But I guess Bonnie got tired of doing this for me, and one day she called me while I was at the computer and she showed me how simple it was to sign people up myself. She then helped me put a page on my website for people to take their time and decide for themselves about this chocolate.

But here is the kicker!!! I just signed up a few friends myself, and I made a commission check of $450.00. Of course, I donated the profit. Still, I started to think about how many people loved chocolate, wanted to be healthy, and needed the extra cash! So I decided to blog about it.

Now buying this chocolate from my website works in two different ways: you can buy it retail or buy it wholesale to sell it. But, the most amazing part of this chocolate for me is the response from people who EAT it; not just the fact that it’s delicious and smooth, but because of other results too! My girlfriend Catherine said she lost 2 dress sizes in 3 weeks and has an amazing feeling of “well-being.” She also told me she eats less and has less cravings. Good enough for me to blog about it!

This RAW chocolate comes in several different forms. It comes in nuggets (which gave me the chipmunk cheeks), Xobiotic Squares with probiotics (good bacteria which helps in the small intestine during digestion and absorption), and an Omega-1 square (which has added essential fatty acids for more rebuilding) Oh, and the Omega square has little crisps of Flax seed in it giving it a ‘Nestles Crunch Bar’ feeling. The last type is the Energy square- a dark chocolate which they use for energy. My yoga teacher says she uses this Energy Square before her sessions to help people have more energy for a better workout! Energy squares are supposed to be FANTASTIC for athletes because it just gives you so much energy. Even if you are a weekend athlete, we ALL could use a little bit of a boost every now and then!

Oh, and yes, there is a reason why the manufacturer has not put this RAW chocolate on the shelves next to the other chocolates and candy. It is because they view it NOT as a candy, but as something that is extremely healthy.

Again, the name of the chocolate is XOCAI. Check out my RAW chocolate page attached to my website. You’re gonna LOVE it! LOL!

To Your Health,
With love,

    Kristen,
    you know, always be careful about anything you eat. start small and then build up. you may have an allergy to the chocolate itself or you may have an allergy to commercial chocolate and that is why you break out(i am only taking guesses from what you wrote) if you are allergic to chocolate that is one thing. but if your allergy is to the fillers or the processing of the commercial chocolate than that is a whole other thing….
    as for the Xocai,I have had great results from my friends who are eating the chocolate. No one has yet reported any skin problems.
    Perhaps someone in your area sells the Xocai so that you can try it before buying it. It is expensive if you are not one of those people who want to supplement their income by buying it to sell.
    i find all raw food is expensive, but on the other-hand, i now do not take tums, headache pills, sleep meds, etc. i save a lot of money there…
    everything in life is a choice.
    wishing you all the best,

    ps i had given up chocolate when i was 17. when i went raw, i found raw chocolate. and i did eat it sparingly and no one in my family would eat it cause they did not like it. when i found Xocai, not only i ate it, but i supply the family! just wanted to share my experience with Xocai.

    always see a doctor when making any dietary commitments or changes.

  • I have been eating this healthy chocolate and for me it has been amazing. All I know is that I have lost 49 pounds so far and feel better. Plus my crows feet and wrinkles are lessening. Can’t beat that. What does it hurt to try it? It is cold pressed belgian chocolate and it works for me. :-)
