Xocai is a beverage which combines the antioxidant benefits of the finest,
all-natural European cocoa powder, the açai berry from the Amazon Rain Forest, and other
fruits. Xocai is sweetened with agave nectar derived from a Mexican cactus.
We know chocolate
MXI Corp was established by the Founders of Pure De-lite Products, Inc. Pure
De-lite is recognized as one of the leading distributors of low-carb, sugar-free chocolate
in the United States. Pure De-lite chocolates have achieved top honors and accolades from
companies such as the American Culinary Institute, CNN, and Health & Fitness as
"The Best Low-Carb, Sugar-Free Chocolates" in the marketplace. For six
consecutive years the best selling Pure De-lite product has been the antioxidant-rich dark
chocolate bar.
The benefits of chocolate without the guilt
Xocai is the perfect delivery system for the antioxidants in chocolate because
it eliminates almost all of the fat and sugar typically found in other chocolate products.
One fluid ounce of Xocai contains only 25 calories, less than one gram of fat, and only
two grams of naturally occurring sugar. Xocai has a low glycemic index and three ounces of
Xocai is a high source of fiber.
The Power of Chocolate
Cacao, or Chocolate, originated with the Olmec Indians in 1500 BC.
Mayans and Aztecs used cacao in a royal chocolate drink called Xocolatl. Xocolatl
progressed to a favored beverage of the European elite.
"The divine drink builds up resistance and fights fatigue. A cup of this precious
drink (cacao) permits a man to walk for a whole day without food." Montezuma ll.
From antiquity to the present, chocolate has been one of the most beloved products, and
for more than 90% of its history chocolate has been consumed as a beverage.
Although many health benefits have been attributed to chocolate during its 3,500-year
history, the full extent of its contributions to human health is only now being brought to
light through modern technology and research.
The Greek term "Theobroma Cacao" literally means "Food of the Gods".
MXI Corp has perfectly balanced the flavor profile of Xocai while protecting the essential
antioxidant properties in cocoa powder, known specifically as flavonoids.
Research has demonstrated that flavonoids play an important role in protecting the cacao
plant. Further research has concluded that these same natural protective compounds in
cacao beans, when consumed by humans, help maintain health by protecting cells from the
damaging effects of free radicals.
Xocai is produced with rich European unprocessed, nonalkalized, nonlecithinized cocoa
powder that is high in antioxidants due to a closely monitored fermentation, drying, and
roasting process. Because these processes are closely monitored, Xocai delivers the
optimum amount of the antioxidants found in the all-natural cocoa powder.
Acai - The super antioxidant berry from the Amazon Rain Forest
Acai (ah-sigh–ee) is a high-energy berry harvested on co-op farms from a
special Amazon palm tree. Açaí berries contain amino acids, essential fatty acids (Omega
3, 6, and 9), and higher amounts of antioxidants than any other fruit.
The acai berry has over 14 times more antioxidants than raw spinach, and 10 to 30 times
more anthocyanins than red wine.
The emerging world of antioxidants
What are antioxidants? An antioxidant is a chemical that prevents the oxidation
of other chemicals. An example of oxidation is a banana turning brown when left on the
counter top. In the body antioxidants counteract the damaging effects of free radicals.
How are antioxidants measured?
The antioxidants in any food are measured by its capacity to absorb free
radicals. ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) values as determined by the U.S. Dept.
of Agriculture measure the capacity of a food to absorb oxygen free radicals. The chart to
the right contains the ORAC values of several high-antioxidant foods.
Indulge your health
The shocking good news is that dark chocolate is packed with potent antioxidants
called flavonoids. Researchers have found that flavonoids found in cocoa powder contain
diverse beneficial phytonutrients and antioxidants.
Cacao beans contain over 300 chemically identifiable compounds making it one of the most
complex food substances on Earth.
The ORAC value of Xocai
The USDA website recommends a Daily Antioxidant Intake Range of 3,000 to 5,000
ORAC. However, recent studies have suggested that more active lifestyles require higher
levels of antioxidants
Xocai is produced with some of the world’s most powerful super foods –
unprocessed cocoa powder and the açai berry. As a result, one ounce of Xocai taken three
times per day exceeds the high end of the USDA’s Antioxidant Recommended Daily Intake
of 5,000 ORAC.
Xocai should be a vital part of a balanced diet and an active lifestyle.
