Since this is the start of a new year and everybody seems to be thinking of losing weight, exercising more and earning more money – I’m covering 2 of the big 3 New Year’s Resolutions. The thing is, wealth building is not just a resolution, it’s a lifestyle and a life-long learning process. Do you know where you’re going, how you will build your wealth, how much is enough and the gaps inbetween where you are now and where you want to be? In order to get from here to there, you need to know where you are now and where you want to be.

You will have your plan within a day or two in an easy-to-read format that will improve your speed to reach your finish line. They supply the road map and you must take the wheel and drive the car.

Eat Chocolate, Lose Weight, Feel Energized
Filed Under Health, Well-Being | 1 Comment
By now you’ve heard the benefits of eating dark chocolate and drinking red wine. Aaaah yes, a little port wine and the dark stuff on a snowy evening is just what works for me. Well, you’ve got to experience the Xocai chocolate – it’s a new product that holds even more benefits and anti-oxidants than regular dark chocolate. My friend, Christine Hueber introduced it to me and it’s delicious and nurtritious. Check out Christine’s website a LoseWeightEatChocolate.
From USA Today:
Potential heart benefits
Antioxidants galore. Chocolate is rich in cell-protecting antioxidants. A 1.4-ounce piece of milk chocolate typically has 400 milligrams of antioxidants, as much as in a glass of red wine, says chemist Joe A. Vinson of the University of Scranton. Dark chocolate has twice as much; white chocolate, none. Antioxidant activity jumped 31% in the blood of subjects at the University of California, Davis, two hours after eating 2.8 ounces of M&Ms semisweet baking bits.
Anti-cholesterol. The antioxidants in chocolate help block chemical changes in bad LDL cholesterol that lead to clogged arteries. In fact, Vinson found chocolate’s antioxidants better than vitamin C at detoxifying LDLs. Research by Penny Kris-Etherton at Pennsylvania State University shows diets rich in dark chocolate or cocoa powder raise good HDL cholesterol. Previously, she found eating a milk chocolate bar daily for a month (in place of another high-carb snack) did not raise men’s bad cholesterol.
Clot blocker. Chocolate antioxidants act like aspirin to reduce blood platelet stickiness and thus the clotting that triggers heart attacks and strokes. In a recent study, 30 subjects drank water, a caffeine drink or a cocoa drink containing 1.5 times the antioxidants in typical hot cocoa. The cocoa significantly delayed blood-clotting time.
Vessel relaxant. Good vascular function (how well blood vessels relax) helps prevent heart disease, high blood pressure and artery clogging. Chocolate’s antioxidants (called procyanidins) relax vessels by increasing the chemical nitric oxide, according to new studies at the University of California, Davis.
Check this out: The Xoçai™ X Power Squares use cacao that is blanched, unfermented, sun-dried, non-roasted and cold-pressed, which means it boasts eight times the levels of epicatechins and catechins, and four times the levels of procyandins than cacao produced with standard processing. X Power Squares are loaded with antioxidants and have an unparalleled ORAC Value of 3,582 per 6g Square. The Xoçai™ X Power Squares are the most powerful, health-promoting, decadent chocolate ever produced.
Christine can hook you up with some of her Xocai chocolate and you can start your new year off right….with a little chocolate.
