Let's answer the question,

What is Healthy Dark Chocolate?

There are a lot of chocolates that claim they are healthy but there is a difference between store bought and healthy dark chocolate.

The truth is without sugar and additives, cocoa that is dutched or heat processed does not have the nutrients to meet the benefits of real healthy chocolate. Every store bought brand of chocolate and most candy store 'hand-made' chocolate is dutch processed.

Cocoa comes from the cacao plant. Cocoa powder is the edible non-fat part of the cacao bean. Cocoa butter is the rest.

Cocoa has one of the highest concentration antioxidants of any foods, in the form of the flavonoids: catechin and epicatechin. ORAC scores are used to measure the level of antioxidant properties in foods. This oxygen radical absorbance capacity test rates raw and unprocessed or raw cocoa higher than most foods, including green tea or red wine.

Studies have shown that dark chocolate decreases blood pressure. This function may be attributed to cocoa's action as a renin-angiotension enzyme inhibitor (blood pressure stabilizer), the same mechanism addressed by blood pressure medication.

The more raw, the cocoa is, the more health benefits.

The cocoa bean also contains insoluble fiber, which helps lower cholesterol levels and regulate bathroom friendly activities. The fiber in dark chocolate has also been shown to reduce the rate of colo-rectal cancer, and to reduce constipation. "Didn't I just say this?"

Dark chocolate contains magnesium, which helps soothe the nervous system, relax muscles, reduce PMS and build teeth and bones. Dark chocolate also contains the mineral copper, which is needed in many metabolic functions in the body.

Cocoa's content of antioxidants aids in memory, along with the nutrients vitamin E and vitamin B. By increasing nitric oxide intake, cocoa has been shown to help stimulate insulin to uptake blood sugar, thereby stopping the insulin resistance that can lead to diabetes. And cocoa has even been shown to repair liver cells after alcohol consumption.

As an antidepressant, chocolate really shines. The "love chemical" phenylethylamine helps to raise the serotonin and dopamine levels. This curbs appetite, stimulates the nervous system, and even raises libido.

	“I thought all dark chocolate was healthy?”

Watch Dr. Steve Warren MD explain why dark chocolate is so healthy:

These are all great reasons for me to bring healthy dark chocolate into my diet as a supplement instead of the after dinner dessert it has been for years.   

So why am I so hyped up about healthy dark chocolate?

Because I found a way to bring it to you in it’s purest form (unprocessed raw cocoa) possible without any aftertaste. And it wasn’t something I found today and decided to just put out there.

I had been playing around with making raw unprocessed chocolates this past month. 

And I thought I was doing well enough to bring some to a couple of top notch health food stores in my area. The A-Market in Manchester and Natural Choice Market in Hooksett,NH are good starts for any raw food product that just came to life. Except that when I started to figure out the kitchen rental, package design and creation, machinery, and distribution , my head began to hurt.

With more research of similar ingredient combinations like mine, I came across one that was almost exactly the same. This unprocessed cocoa with the addition of blueberry and acai powder is sweetened with unprocessed cane juice that has been crystallized to give it a low glycemic value.  

When I asked for some samples, they were sent off without question or cost. The taste is incredible and without an aftertaste. Plus this product is already packaged with all the legalese completed for me and as good as I was making at home.

Before I can claim that all their health benefits are true, I have given myself a 30 day challenge.Personally I love a challenge and this one is big because I intend to cure my diabetes and obesity through super foods, internal kung-fu, and healthy eating; a goal I made in my first post.

So here is how my 30 day test will work:

1. Reduce my metaformin by half.
2. I intend to have a reading of 120 to 140 at the end of the test.
3. My jeans are size 44-46 and my intention is to be a size 40 in one month.
4. I will eat the recommended servings of one bar or nugget 30 minutes before each meal (3x/day) with a glass of water.

Are these goals too high?

No, not if the claims on the healthy dark chocolate (which are not claims from the company but those who have used the product) are really true. I should see results at least 90% as good.

And what happens if it does nothing?

I finish the amount I purchased and the idea for this particular dark chocolate goes away.  I mean it’s not going to hurt you. It’s chocolate and it tastes great. I have used it three days already and I sleep better and have better energy with no sugar shocks or drops to put me to sleep.  So far so good but tomorrow is my first blood sugar reading and I hope it shows some good news.

Do you want..about this great chocolate now?

Do you want to take a 14 or 30 day challenge too?
