What is Oxidation
Oxidation is generally a harmful process in the body that contributes to atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), several forms of cancer and many other common and devastating diseases. A diet high in fruits, vegetables and fruits that are rich in naturally-occurring antioxidants is known to reduce the risk of these diseases. Surprisingly, however, clinical studies of highly purified antioxidant supplements (such as selenium and vitamins E and C) have not shown any of these benefits. It appears that such vitamins fail to reduce these diseases both because of over-purification and because many different antioxidants are needed together to provide the benefits found in natural antioxidant foods.
A healthy chocolate beverage with acai is very carefully designed to solve these problems by avoiding over-processing and by containing a wide range of antioxidants. This revolutionary drink is made from unprocessed cocoa powder, acai berry juice and many other ingredients rich in naturally-occurring antioxidant factors. It promises to provide all of the benefits of an extremely healthy diet in a concentrated, tasty, low-calorie beverage that can be consumed conveniently on a daily basis by a health-conscious but busy person. We believe that regular use of this healthy chocolate blend either as a beverage, nuggets or bars, will provide many health benefits, like lowering of cholesterol and glucose levels in the blood and improved cardiovascular health, including lower blood pressure.
