CATECHINS protect the heart.

Catechins belong to the flavonoid family – a group of biological pigments. They have strong antioxidant capabilities, which have more of an effect than Vitamin C and E. Catechins may help to protect against heart disease and cancer.

Catechins effectively catch free radicals and prevent deposits in the blood vessel walls*, regulate the blood pressure**, and stimulate the immune system.

The positive medicinal effects of Catechins are also found in green tea and red wine.

PHENYLETHYLAMIN has a stimulating euphoric effect, a mood enhancer.

VITAMIN E is an antioxidant. It protects the body´ s cells against free radicals.

Copper is a trace element and acts as a catalyst in the formation of hemoglobin.

ENDORPHINS make us happy. These so called "hormones of happiness" are released when eating chocolate. They stimulate the natural opiates in our bodies, resulting in a feeling of calmness and a positive mood.

TANNINS protect against tooth decay. They prevent cavities. Oxalic acid decreases the production of acid in the saliva which has a similar effect.

Chocolate is a miracle cure!
