The Solution to Aging

Antioxidants are our body’s defense against the destructive free radicals that are constantly invading our healthy cells. This oxidative stress also causes severe damage to our DNA and can lead to more serious health conditions. But what are antioxidants and how can we get more of them?

By controlling free radicals, antioxidants can make the difference between life and death, as well as influence how fast and how well we age. These molecules capable of inhibiting oxidative stress are found in fruits and vegetables. They are also found in other types of foods such as nuts, oils, beans, etc. Research studies suggest that organic foods have higher concentrations of antioxidants than processed foods grown with pesticides.

Live Longer and Healthier

There is overwhelming scientific evidence demonstrating that those of us who eat a diet rich in antioxidants and take antioxidant supplements will live longer, healthier lives. When it comes to aging, setting the clock back a few years may have more to do with consuming an antioxidant-rich diet than using any kind of skin cream to eliminate wrinkles.

Cacao: Antioxidant Super Food

Many people don’t realize that unprocessed Cacao is the highest source of antioxidants in the world, and that Googling “cacao” and “health” will return over a million results. And it’s not just NBC, CNN, and CBS that are reporting on the healthy benefits of chocolate, it’s medical professionals, scientists, and researches. So eat more chocolate! Not so fast. Most commercial chocolate is anything but unprocessed. Chocolate treats found on store shelves lose their healthy benefits from over processing such as dutching and roasting, and most store brands add unhealthy processed sugar, milk, fats, fillers, waxes and preservatives.

Xoçai™ is Healthy Chocolate

Xoçai’s Healthy Chocolate is produced with pure unprocessed cacao that is blanched, unfermented, sun-dried, non-roasted, non-alkalized, non-lecithinized, and coldpressed. Because these proprietary processes are closely monitored, Xoçai™. delivers the maximum amount of antioxidants naturally found in unprocessed cacao.

Antioxidants. Just as they sound, antioxidants are chemicals that prevent oxidation of other compounds.

Oxidation. Think about bananas turning brown or metal rusting, both are results of oxidation; a process of adding oxygen to a compound. This process can produce “free radicals” molecules, which is an atom with an unpaired electron.

Science has taught us that oxidation occurs in our bodies naturally and certain behaviors can intensify the process such as smoking, pollution, poor diet, and unchecked exposure to the sun. But science has also shown that we can defend against oxidation or Free Radical damage with Antioxidants.

Health Benefits of Cacao. In our bodies antioxidants can react with free radicals to make them more stable and less likely to cause damage to our lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Damage to these vital molecules has been linked to many common health issues and chronic diseases. Our bodies can defend against oxidation, but this ability declines with age. Eating antioxidant-rich foods can enhance our natural defenses. A few plant-based foods meet this criteria and are distinguished by their high polyphenol content.

A subclass of polyphenols are flavonoids that are found abundantly in cacao. Research on flavonoids make them well-known for their antioxidant characteristics, their help in supporting the immune system, and their positive effect on the health of the cardiovascular system.

ORAC. Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is a standard for quantitating a food’s ability to offset the harmful effects of free radicals. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Journal of the American Chemical Society dark chocolate tops the list for ORAC on a per serving basis.

Brunswick Labs. The Brunswick Labs Certification Program is a third party and independent laboratory test performed on Xoçai™ products three times a year that certify the ORAC and Flavonoid values displayed on Xoçai’s product packaging.

“The Brunswick Labs Seal assures consumers that they are getting one of nature’s premiere antioxidant-rich foods.” – Brunswick Labs

Conclusion:

1. Cacao is abundantly rich in Flavonoids.
2. All-natural unprocessed cacao is healthier than commercially processed chocolate.
3. Xoçai™ Healthy Chocolate is raw unprocessed chocolate that maintains cacao’s natural Flavonoids.

McDonald’s opened their first restaurant in 1940 and their first franchised store followed in 1955. They now have over 30,000 restaurants in 199 countries.

How many people in Daytona Beach Florida over the years have regretted the fact that they didn’t start a Orlando McDonald’s franchise when the company was young or buy shares when it went public in 1965?

MXI Corp, producers of Xocai antioxidant chocolate, is the industry leader in healthy chocolate. Though MXI is only a few years old, the company is financially sound, debt free, and growing robustly.

MXI’s success in Daytona Beach Florida is even more remarkable when you consider the Daytona Beach economic climate of the past few years. MXI is a direct marketing company with independent Xocai distributors in Daytona Beach and Port Orange and around the world. Xocai is currently the most recognizable brand of healthy chocolate and continually receives favorable press.

I am an independent Xocai distributor in Daytona Beach. I don’t think it’s unrealistic to believe that MXI Corp. will become as dominant in the healthy chocolate industry as McDonald’s is in the fast-food industry.

To continue the McDonald’s comparison: initially, McDonald’s did not create a new product; they sold ordinary hamburgers and fries in a new way (-the McMuffin and McRib came later). MXI has created an extraordinary new product; actually, a whole new category -antioxidant healthy chocolate.

MXI produces food and beverages that improve your health. In fact, if you have been eating Orlando burgers for the past twenty years, you really need some Xocai antioxidants!

Becoming a Ormond Beach Xocai chocolate distributor is far easier than purchasing any kind of franchise. The start-up costs are low and you don’t need to make a significant investment in inventory. Once you get going, you won’t be crippled by overhead because you can work out of your Daytona Beach home.

When I was introduced to Xocai chocolate in Orlando, I recognized a sure bet. If you let this Daytona Beach business opportunity pass you by, there will come a time when you’ll kick yourself for passing it up.

 Most people in Daytona Beach understand the importance of Omega-3 fatty acids, but many are not aware of the need for a balance of Omega-3s and Omega-6s. Unlike Omega-3, there are a multitude of Omega-6 sources. In fact, most cookies, candy, snacks and crackers contain soybean oil which is very rich in Omega-6.

“Most North Americans and Europeans now get far too much of the Omega-6s and not enough of the Omega-3s. This dietary imbalance may explain the rise of such diseases as asthma, coronary heart disease, many forms of cancer, autoimmunity and neurodegenerative diseases, all of which are believed to stem from inflammation in the body.”
—Dr. Andrew Weil

The Xocai Omega Squares contain healthy chocolate and Omega-3s; a winning combo for health and vitality. They have a minimum of 200mg of DHA and EPA per three 11 gram squares. The Xocai Omega Squares are an excellent source of Omega-3 and promote the necessary balance of essential fatty acids through the Acai Berries, flaxseed and a patented, plant-based, encapsulated Omega-3.

If you usually eat a traditional dark chocolate bar every day and replace it with Xocai Omega Squares, you will benefit in three ways:

1. You will avoid the empty calories, refined sugar and saturated fats found in ordinary chocolate candy;
2. You will get a significant amount of Omega-3, and;
3. You will help correct the Omega-3/Omega-6 imbalance by tipping the scales toward the Omega-3s.

The longer you regularly enjoy Xocai Omega Squares, the closer you will get to the ideal Omega-3/Omega-6 ratio.

If you have never tried Omega Squares antioxidant chocolate, don’t be fooled by the fact that they are nutritious. First-time Xocai reviews are universally positive from all my Daytona Beach Florida friends. In fact, one of the best MLM secrets is the fact that Xocai Omega Squares (sometimes called New York Times Chocolate) do not taste like traditional health supplements. A healthy life is not based on denial, but choosing wisely.

Choose Xocai healthy chocolate.

 There are over 39 million Americans in the 65+ age group; about 13 percent of the population. By 2030, this number will increase to 72 million. (seniorcaremarketer.com). According to Senior Journal, about seven out of ten senior citizens are worried about their health.

The Centers for Disease Control reported that more than 40 percent of people aged 50 – 64 said they have problems with at least one of nine physical functions. (MSNBC on Baby Boomers). Heart disease, diabetes, cancer, arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease are the biggies.

Xocai healthy chocolate products can help protect Daytona Beach men and women from health threats. Xocai chocolate is a rich source of antioxidants. Antioxidants counter free radical cell damage which is linked to most age-related diseases.

I like this description of free radical damage found in an article from the Harvard School of Public Health:

“Free radicals come in many shapes, sizes, and chemical configurations. What they all share is a voracious appetite for electrons, stealing them from any nearby substances that will yield them. This electron theft can radically alter the “loser’s” structure or function.

Free radical damage can change the instructions coded in a strand of DNA. It can make a circulating low-density lipoprotein (LDL, sometimes called bad cholesterol) molecule more likely to get trapped in an artery wall. Or it can alter a cell’s membrane, changing the flow of what enters the cell and what leaves it.”

Antioxidant products are being snapped up by Daytona Beach people who are concerned about age-related health conditions. This trend will only increase as Daytona Beach baby boomers get older.

You can own your own Orlando health business that sells the best-tasting antioxidant product on the market: Xocai antioxidant chocolate. Call me to find out how.

“What is the Utah business of the 21st Century?” Network Marketing!

Bestselling author (“Rich Dad, Poor Dad,” “Cashflow Quadrant”) and wealth-building expert Robert Kiyosaki’s latest book is called “The Business of the 21st Century.” In it, Kiyosaki makes the case that Salt Lake City MLMs are the business of the century because they create genuine wealth.

Kiyosaki points out that wealth and money are not the same thing. “Money is what you earn; wealth is what you build.” The Salt Lake City people who understand the difference between money and wealth work to build assets, not merely earn income. A Salt Lake City business becomes an asset when it generates income even when the owner is not working.

A network marketing business is an asset, not just a job. Assets create wealth for Draper entrepreneurs and small business owners.

I invite you to create your own wealth-building asset by joining my network marketing team sharing Xocai Productsin Draper and on the online marketplace.

Think about it: Network marketing in the Draper area turns something you already have (a network) into a money making asset. Here is the formula for success in Draper:

Your network + a quality product (XoBiotic) + your time, effort, and skills + my support and training = an income-generating asset!

If you are an entrepreneur in Draper but your current venture is not generating passive income, I would invite you to learn more about the XoBiotic wealth-building opportunity. My phone number is 386-872-8117 my email address is info@cocoa4you.com  The information from from Robert T. Kiyosaki’s new book was taken from an article he wrote for Direct Selling News entitled “Network Marketing: The Business of the 21st Century.” It appeared in the April 2010 issue.

Perhaps it is because chocolate triggers the release of endorphins. Physical intimacy also causes the release of these ‘love chemicals’ that create pleasurable feelings.

Chocolate and romance have been linked for thousands of years. The Aztecs used cacao-based beverages in rituals involving the worship of Xochiquetzal. In Aztec mythology, Xochiquetzal is the female deity linked to fertility and sexuality. In more than one culture, cacao beans were used to woo women.

Why wait for Valentine’s Day? Why don’t you treat your Daytona Beach sweetheart to some decadent Xocai chocolate this week? Xocai has a complete line of delicious chocolate gifts.

If you and your lover enjoy sharing mugs of hot cocoa by a crackling fire, try Xocai Sipping Xocolate. Hot cocoa connoisseurs will appreciate the rich smoothness of Xocai’s premium hot chocolate beverage.
