What is CRP And Why Is It Important For Tacoma?

2010-12-31T09:39:00.000-08:00

Hi, I am Tacoma Xocai blogger Tehane Gallimore. Today's post explores the link between CRP levels, inflammation and heart disease. What is CRP? CRP is a measure of C-reactive protein in the blood. You can get your CRP tested when you get your cholesterol measured. A high level of CRP tells you that inflammation is present in your body.
The health dangers of inflammation are well established. If your blood vessels are inflamed, you may be at risk for heart disease. A high CRP level can occur even if no other heart disease risk factors are present. The Mayo Clinic has an article on this if you want to read more.
What does this have to do with Xocai health chocolate?
Antioxidants lower CRP levels, thereby reducing inflammation. The main ingredient in Xocai healthy chocolate is cacao. Cacao is the #1 Antioxidant Food.
The National Institute of Aging conducted a study in 2004 which found a link between antioxidant supplements and lower CRP levels. According to the researchers: "taking an antioxidant supplement was associated with CRP levels similar to those seen in those who exercised 180 minutes/week or more and did not take supplements."
I am certainly not recommending that you stop exercising. I just wanted to point out that the NIA study showed just how effective antioxidant supplements are in reducing CRP levels even in people who do not exercise. Obviously, the best combination for heart health is antioxidant consumption coupled with regular exercise.
How do I get my antioxidants? Xocai healthy chocolate, of course! Of all the antioxidant-rich foods available in Seattle, Xocai dark chocolate is the most delicious and satisfying.
I share Xocai with people in Puyallup, University Place, and Lakewood. If you come to one of my Xocai reviews you can sample Xocai products while learning about chocolate health benefits. Call me anytime at 7192107588 to schedule a meeting.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Xocai Chocolate for IBS In Seattle

2010-12-31T09:36:00.000-08:00

People in Tacoma may be amazed, but it's true that our gastrointestinal tract is home to hundreds of different types of bacteria, each of which is constantly trying to divide and conquer.
The 'good' bacteria help us absorb nutrients from the food we eat. The 'bad' bacteria trigger a variety of intestinal miseries like constipation, diarrhea, bloating, gas, heartburn, stomach ulcers and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
IBS is a common ailment among Puyallup women and men and a leading cause of workplace absenteeism.
Bacterial imbalances in Seattle adults are also linked to conditions such as allergies, depression, fibromyalgia, and chronic yeast infections.
Probiotics are the key to a healthy GI tract for Tacoma people concerned about intestinal health. Probiotics are 'good' bacteria that are able to survive the stomach acids and bile salts on their way to the intestines where they can grow and devour the 'bad' bacteria. There are relatively few foods that can successfully deliver probiotics to the intestines; aged cheeses, live-culture yogurt, kefir (a beverage consisting of fermented milk and kefir grains), and miso are some of them.
MXI Corp, producers of Tacoma Xocai chocolate have developed the most effective probiotic delivery system; Xocai healthy chocolate. An 11 gram Xocai XoBiotic Square delivers one billion friendly microorganisms to the GI tract.
Xocai XoBiotic Squares are one of the only probiotic foods that can be eaten by University Place people who suffer from lactose intolerance.
Many Puyallup people who have started eating Xocai XoBiotic Squares not only have noticed improvement in their digestion, they feel more energetic and seem to be more resistant to catching colds.
I am Tacoma Xocai distributor Tehane Gallimore. If you are suffering from health problems that have eluded diagnosis and successful treatment, I suggest you try Xocai XoBiotic Squares. Xocai XoBiotic Squares the most delicious way to maintain GI health. To order Xocai XoBiotic Squares or any other Xocai antioxidant chocolate product, call 7192107588.
love what you do and eat what you crave without the guilt factor!

Xocai Dark Chocolate is a Brain Food

2010-11-27T11:57:00.001-08:00

Seattle seniors with high blood pressure should be aware that hypertension may contribute to diminishing mental function in Washington elderly.
The following is from Psychology Today:

"A number of vegetable-based foods—among them tea, purple grapes, cranberries, as well as cocoa—are rich in antioxidants. But chocolate has its own unique profile of flavanols. German scientists recently found that cocoa—but not green or black tea—lowers blood pressure in people being treated for hypertension. Even moderate degrees of high blood pressure, researchers believe, are at the root of the cognitive decline seen in aging."

Tacoma and Puyallup chocoholics know that Xocai weight-loss chocolate with acai berries is good for their soul. Now they can feel good about the fact that it is also good for their brain.
University Place Xocai healthy chocolate is a no-brainer.
It doesn’t take a genius to realize that New York Times Chocolate is a billion-dollar industry that generates steady profit in Tacoma, Washington and all around the Seattle area. In addition, Xocai antioxidant chocolate also taps into the lucrative and fast-growing Puyallup and University Place health and wellness market! Talk about a perfect combination for Seattle entrepreneurs who want to apply their intelligence and creativity to create a stable financial future for themselves and their Tacoma families.

Choose Xocai for Balance

2010-11-27T11:46:00.001-08:00

Most people in Tacoma 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:

You will avoid the empty calories, refined sugar and saturated fats found in ordinary chocolate candy;
You will get a significant amount of Omega-3, and;
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 Tacoma Washington 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.

Chocolate for Heart Health

2010-11-12T13:12:00.000-08:00

The Kuna Indians of Panama live both on the mainland and on a chain of islands in the Caribbean. The Kuna who live on the islands have retained their traditional culture which includes a diet rich in unprocessed cacao.
Most island-dwelling Kuna drink several cups of cocoa a day. Unlike people in developed nations, as the Kunas age, they don't experience a rise in blood pressure. The westernized Kuna who live in Panama City do not consume cocoa daily and do not enjoy a lower rate of hypertension. (see Medical News Today)

Harvard Medical School professor of radiology Norman Hollenberg believes the island Kunas' heart health is due to the antioxidants contained in the unprocessed cacao.
Xocai X Power Squares are made with 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.
Many people in the Seattle area eat chocolate daily. Unfortunately, the processing methods used to make Snickers, Kit Kat, Hershey and the like strip the cocoa of its original nutrients. These popular brands of Seattle chocolate also contain high levels of saturated fat, your heart's worst enemy.
If you are a Tacoma chocolate addict who is worried about hypertension, you should try delicious Xocai Power Squares. Xocai Power Squares provide a guilt-free chocolate fix.
You can order Xocai Power Squares by calling me (Tehane Gallimore) at 7192107588. I share Xocai weight loss chocolate in Puyallup, University Place and Lakewood. There is a growing demand for antioxidant chocolate in the Seattle area. If you would like to tap into the healthy chocolate goldmine, contact me today.

Chocolate for Healthy Digestion?

2010-11-12T13:10:00.001-08:00

Today's featured healthy chocolate product is Xocai XoBiotic Squares which contain valuable Probiotics.
'Biotic' means 'life'. (It has the same 'bio' root such as 'biology' and 'biography'.) Probiotic, therefore, means 'pro-life'. Probiotics are living microorganisms that maintain and improve health. Xocai has discovered that chocolate is one of the most effective delivery systems for probiotics.
Probiotics play a role in immune strength and digestive function. According to the American College of Gastroenterology, 95 million Americans suffer from digestive problems. Some 60 million have heartburn, 50 million have irritable bowel syndrome, and 20 million suffer from stomach ulcers.
Perhaps you are one of the Seattle area people who are troubled by digestive problems. Have you ever thought that eating chocolate could help? Of course the Snickers and Hershey bars sold at any Tacoma grocery store are not the answer (hello diarrhea), however, Xocai XoBiotic squares deliver to your GI tract the microrganisms it needs for proper digestive function.
An 11 gram square of Xocai XoBiotic chocolate contains one billion microorganisms (the good kind!) of two types; Lactobacillus Helveticus R0052 and Bifido Bacterium Longum R0175.
If you are like many Puyallup and University Place chocolate lovers, you don't need an extra reason to eat Xocai antioxidant chocolate. However, isn't it good to know that there is a Xocai dark chocolate product that not only contains antioxidants, it contains the 'good bacteria' that can promote digestive health?
I hold Xocai healthy chocolate meetings regularly at my home. If you would like to join me at my next meeting, contact me at 7192107588 for the date and time. You can sample Xocai XoBiotic squares and X Power Squares.
If you are interested in a home-based Lakewood or University Place business that capitalizes on the insatiable chocolate market and the equally thriving health and wellness market--we can talk about that also.

Lose Weight Eating Chocolate?

2010-11-12T13:09:00.000-08:00

In June, Xocai began a 12-week pilot study to test the new High-Antioxidant Wellness System. There are 50 subjects, males and females, from all over the country, ranging in age from 26-76. Each participant wants to lose at least 20 pounds (and some up to 100). As of the halfway point (July 30) the subjects were on target to reach their weight-loss goals.

The Xocai High-Antioxidant Wellness System Plan is as follows:

Substitute two meals a day with the X ProteinMeal Replacement Shake.
Eat three pieces of Xocai chocolate and other healthy snacks.
Eat one high-protien/complex carbohydrate meal.
1,200 calorie limit for women, 1,500 calorie limit for men.
Exercise regularly.
Drink plenty of water.
Sleep 7-8 hours a night.
Keep a food diary.
Report weekly in an accountability phone call.

As of July 30, the group had lost a total of 1,000 pounds! According to MXI, the Xocai parent company:

"The really exciting news is they are full of energy, have no muscle aches, no longer experience carbohydrate cravings, and feel better than they have ever felt.
They are even having a hard time consuming the required daily calories because they feel full and have no hunger. Everyone is losing weight and abdominal inches without even feeling like they're on a diet. When asked if they would stop the protein shakes, their response is they 'could not live without it.' When they look over their previous dieting experiences and food intake, they realize why they were gaining and not losing weight.
By recording and reporting their total daily calorie intake, they've had great success in controlling their calorie intake and remaining compliant with the weight-loss protocol. The shakes provide the necessary proteins, fats, carbohydrates, fiber, and vitamin and minerals, which give the participants two nutrient-rich meals and helps them avoid the consumption of empty calories. To date, not a single participant has dropped out of the study, which is unheard of in clinical studies. The participants are ecstatic with the success they are experiencing."

If you want to lose weight and increase your energy, the Xocai High-Antioxidant Wellness System Plan can help you also! Call me at 7192107588 to order the Xocai weight-loss products. I share Xocai with interested people in Tacoma, Puyallup, University Place, Lakewood, and Seattle.

Direct Selling Opportunity Early In Tacoma

2010-11-12T13:07:00.001-08:00

One of the oft-perpetuated myths about Tacoma MLM marketing companies (by insiders and outsiders alike) is that it is only wise to join companies that are in the pre-launch phase. You have probably seen pitches similar to the following:

'New Seattle MLM Ground Floor Opportunity - Join Today!'

Let's think about this logic for a moment; Does it mean that distributors who sign up in three months will a have a lower earning potential? Does it imply that the Puyallup direct marketing company won't be viable next year?
Both of these may have some truth in them. The failure rate for some direct marketing companies can be high. Keep in mind that some risky University Place health and wellness MLMs start with next to nothing in assets and must use the entrance fees from their first line of distributors to fund the company. If they don't generate enough first-line distributors, they fail before they even get going. And take your money with them.
Let's look at Xocai. The Lakewood weight-loss chocolate distributors who joined the first year and worked steadily have built a profitable business. However, like other well-managed companies that deliver a revolutionary product at a reasonable price, Xocai has increased in value since it's inception over six years ago. Xocai has proven its viability and continues to offer a sound financial opportunity for University Place entrepreneurs.
Xocai's business plan is built on their category-creating product; antioxidant chocolate, not the ability to attract distributors. That is an important distinction in the Direct Marketing/MLM scam world.
I am Tehane Gallimore, a very happy Xocai dark chocolate distributor in Tacoma who has been sharing the good news about Xocai since December, 2009. I would love to tell you more about Xocai's Seattle home-based business opportunity. I can be reached at 7192107588.

Are You Passionate About Chocolate?

2010-11-12T13:04:00.000-08:00

Seattle chocolate sales increase dramatically around Valentine's Day. The Puyallup Wal-Mart and University Place Costco often run out of Lindt and Dove special-edition Valentine's boxes. Forgetful chocolate gift-givers dash into Tacoma convenience stores on their way home from work, hoping to find something fancier than a Kit-Kat bar. International chocolate sales hit $345 million in February 2009. Why is this heavenly confection associated with the most romantic of all holidays?

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 Tacoma 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.
Your cookie lover will be in cookie heaven when you give him/her a box Xocai Powerhouse Cookies.
Xocai Nuggets are a good pick for chocolate candy eaters. If your love interest needs an energy boost, try Activ, Xe Energy or Xocai Protein Bars. (Who knows how that energy will be used?)
To order Xocai healthy chocolate in Seattle, call me at 7192107588. Chocolate passion may be just what your lover is craving. Don't you want to find out?

World's Record in Armenia!

2010-11-10T08:18:00.000-08:00

The world record for the largest chocolate bar was broken on Sept 13, 2010. Guess where? Armenia! The chocolate bar weighed 9702 pounds (4410 kilograms). I don't know why the location surprised me; chocolate is loved all over the world just as much as here in Tacoma, but if I hadn't seen the news story I would have guessed Belgium, Switzerland, Japan or Hershey, Pennsylvania.

The Armenians may have created a two-ton candy bar, but Xocai distributors are selling tons of gourmet healthy chocolate in Puyallup, University Place and Lakewood. If you are new to this Tacoma healthy chocolate blog, let me explain why Xocai is healthy. Xocai chocolate is packed with antioxidants which protect your system from free radicals. There is strong evidence that many chronic illnesses prevalent in University Place are caused by free radical damage. These include arthritis, diabetes, depression, high blood pressure and kidney disease. Free radicals also play a role in several types of cancer.
Xocai proudly displays the Brunswick Lab ORAC score on each Tacoma healthy chocolate label. The ORAC score is the amount of each type of antioxidant contained in the particular dark chocolate product. Brunswick Laboratories is a non-affiliated commercial lab that measures antioxidants in Lakewood health foods and Seattle nutritional supplements.
The Washington Xocai chocolate collection includes chocolate cookies, solid chocolate, chocolate protein bars, the chocolate weight-loss shake, hot cocoa and a chocolate energy drink.
If you are a Tacoma chocolate cookie muncher, a Puyallup energy drink pounder, a University Place chocolate protein bar eater, or a Lakewood hot cocoa sipper, Xocai has an antioxidant chocolate product for you. If you are interested in selling Xocai antioxidant chocolate in Seattle, contact me today.

Latest Hangover Cure...Healthy Chocolate!

2010-11-04T10:46:00.000-07:00

You know those mornings where you wake up and wish that you did not drink so much the night before. Nothing seems to help that horrible feeling of dehydration, nausea, headache, fatigue, fever, vomiting, stomach issues, and sensitivity to light and sound. All of these hang-over symptoms will make you regret all of the fun you may have had the night before. Well...I have found something that actually helps and it is something that you never would have guessed.

Studies show that the reason a hangover will cause many of those symptoms is due to the fact that alcohol is a diuretic that causes the over production of urine. Your body becomes dehydrated because the alcohol is forcing water out of your body and this is also what causes headaches, pain, fatigue, and other issues. Alcohol will also react with chemicals and cells in your stomach lining that will cause it to become inflammed. Here's where you get those stomach problems.

Being a science geek and knowing that Xocai's Healthy Chocolate has been proven to help your intestinal health and it naturally relieves inflammation I decided to test the chocolate on hang-over symptoms and it works! I have tried this method over 5 times in the last year on myself and I have also let my friends and family members try this out and each time I get great results. I am not an alcoholic or anything, but the last year has been very busy with lots of celebrations such as my bachelorette party, college graduation, wedding, honeymoon, concerts, etc. So the question is...how do I use Healthy Chocolate to help prevent hangovers? Here is what I do and it seems to be working:

1) Eat a piece of chocolate before you start drinking
2) Eat a piece during drinking
3) Eat another piece before bed
4) Eat a fourth piece in the morning

Remember to drink lots of water too! If you would like to try this method out I recommend ordering a box. You can do that by Clicking Here!

Gluten Free Delicious All-Natural Healthy Chocolate!

2010-11-03T20:17:00.000-07:00

Hello, its Tehane Gallimore again spreading the news about delicious Xocai healthy chocolate.

In previous articles I have talked at length about the health-promoting ingredients contained in Xocai antioxidant chocolate. Today, I am going to talk about some of the ingredients that are not found in Xocai healthy chocolate.

Xocai dark chocolate is the only chocolate product that does not include:

Refined Sugars
Trans fats
Dairy
Gluten
Preservatives
Waxes

Most Puyallup and University Place chocolate lovers know why refined sugar and trans fats are harmful, but what about gluten? Gluten is the protein that wheat, rye and barley contains. Most breads, cereal and pasta products contain gluten. Perhaps you have noticed Seattle gluten free breads, pastas and cereals.

Gluten is taboo for people who have Celiac Disease (CD). Celiac disease is a chronic digestive disorder of the small intestine. People with this condition have difficulty absorbing nutrients. If they accidentally eat gluten, they have a toxic reaction that can damage the small intestine.

The absence of gluten in Xocai antioxidant chocolate is sweet news for Seattle people with gluten intolerance. If you know someone who suffers from Celiac Disease, treat them to Xocai, a chocolate product that is gluten-free. They can safely enjoy a health food that tastes like expensive Belgium chocolate.

How Can I Lose Weight by Eating Chocolate?

2010-10-29T15:13:00.000-07:00

You must think that I have lost my mind! You are
probably thinking that it is impossible to even have chocolate that can be healthy, but to lose weight by eating chocolate? This is just pure insanity!
As a matter of fact...a new product is now on the market that has been clinically proven and scientifically tested to help people lose weight safe and effectively. The chocolate is absolutely delicious and made with the finest ingredients, and Doctors are recommending their patients eat 3-4 pieces a day!
The Science and Research

Obesity is taking our nation by storm, and this is not news to anyone who has been socially involved with the world around them. What is news is that obesity has now been found to correlate with the amount of free radicals a person has in his or her body. What exactly is a free radical? The scientific definition can sound something like this..."A free radical can be an atom, a molecule, or an ion with an unpaired electron". In non-science geek terms free radicals can be defined to be the rust on a piece of metal. Your body is like this piece of metal and when you have too many free radicals it can cause your body to rust. When your body "rusts" you get all sorts of disorders such as autoimmune disorders, cancer, acceleration of the aging process, diabetes (in some cases), cardiac disease, and much more. Recently scientific studies have also found that excess free radicals in your body is also linked to obesity.

The question is...how do we get free radicals and how can we get rid of them? Free radicals are a natural part of life. There is no getting around them, and we actually need a healthy amount to help our immune system defend itself. Free radicals come from the air we breath, the sun's rays, and even our own body's metabolism. We wind up with problems when we have too many of them which is why we are hearing so much about these things called antioxidants.

What exactly are these things called "antioxidants" that we hear so much about in the news and media? Antioxidants are essential to have in our diet to neutralize free radicals so they are no longer harmful to our body. Antioxidants are found in many foods such as blueberries, artichokes, raspberries, and especially raw unprocessed cacao (cocoa) and the Acai berry. Eating a diet rich in antioxidants can help you to shed those unwanted pounds, fight disease, disorders, and it can also help you to better your overall health and wellness.

What is Healthy Chocolate?

To combat excess free radicals a company named MXI corporation created a line of Xocai Healthy Chocolate products. These products combine the benefits of unprocessed cacao and the Acai berry. Healthy Chocolate is all natural, unprocessed, uncooked, and it does not contain bad fats, bad sugars, and any caffeine, waxes, or fillers. These chocolate products are the most powerful antioxidant-rich foods that are on the market today. Clinical studies and scientific research is actually proving that Healthy Chocolate can help with weight-loss, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, low energy, autoimmune disorders, inflammation, pain, and the list keeps going on. Recently the company just came out with the newest product to hit the market...a revolutionary Protein Shake using the same ingredients as the Healthy Chocolate line of products.

The new X-Protein Meal Weight-Loss shake has proven to be a safe, and highly effective weight-loss tool. Especially when it is paired with the scientifically developed weight-loss protocol and other Healthy Chocolate products.

The X-Protein Weight Loss Shake

What exactly makes the X-Protein Weight-Loss Shake so effective? First of all unprocessed Cacao powder is a natural appetite suppressor so you can resist the urge to eat unhealthy foods. Of course calorie regulation is always important in weight-loss, but unprocessed cacao and the Acai berries incorporated in the shake are also high in antioxidants. In fact the antioxidant load is so powerful and effective that you would have to eat 40 cups of red grapes, 100 cups of raw spinach, 16 oranges, 3 artichokes, or 54 cups of carrots to match the amount of antioxidants in one shake. This is one of the top reasons why the shake is so effective. Those excess free radicals that you are carrying around in your body are keeping you from losing that excess weight. The amazing antioxidant load in this shake is now giving your body a fighting chance at shedding those extra pounds.

The antioxidant content of this shake is great, but the team of brilliant scientists who developed it did not stop there. The X-Protein shake also has 19 amino acids which are the building blocks for essential proteins in your body. These amino acids help with boosting and sustaining your metabolism, as well as making sure that the chemical processes in your body are running smoothly.

The shake is also sweetened with Xylitol which is a healthy alternative sweetener that has been proven to protect your teeth from bacteria, and promote healthy glucose and insulin levels. The X-Protein shake also has an added Whey Protein Isolate to promote healthy blood sugar levels, and to stimulate the production of appetite suppressing hormones. The shake also contains Cocoa fiber which promotes healthy digestion, a healthy cardiovascular system, and it also helps with the suppression of appetite. Apple fiber is also added to promote a feeling of satiety or fullness, as well as healthy blood sugar and insulin levels. Chia Seed Oil and Sunflower Oil are added to provide a healthy diet of omega-3 fatty acids that are great for cardiovascular health along with 12 vitamins and 13 minerals to help with weight control and brain function.

Even after developing this amazing product the team of scientists also created a diet and weight-loss protocol which incorporates Xocai's line of Healthy Chocolate and the X-Protein Weight-Loss shakes.

X-Protein Weight Loss Program

A clinical study was completed before the release of the X-Protein Weight-Loss shake and they found that the shake did in fact help people to lose weight. Not only did they find that it was extremely effective at helping people with healthy weight-loss, but it was providing people with more energy, a better sense of overall health, a reduction in pain, and helping many test subjects with other health issues.

There are on average three different groups of people that use this product. The first group are people who are looking to lose weight, the second group is for people who want to maintain their weight, and a third group is for athletes or people with special needs.

For people who are looking to lose weight the program recommends the following:

1) Replace 2 meals a day with 2 X-Protein shakes.
2) Eat one sensible meal to make up for the third meal of the day.
3) Eat 2-4 pieces of Healthy Chocolate a day or Xocai protein bars to help with hunger or cravings
4) It is recommended that women try to consume at most 1,200 calories per day, and men consume at most 1,500 calories a day.
5) Exercise for 30-60 min 3-5 times a week. Walking is recommended for beginners.

For the group of people looking to maintain their weight here are the following recommendations:

1) Replace 1 meal a day with 1 X-Protein shake.
2) Eat two sensible meals a day.
3) Eat 2-4 pieces of Healthy Chocolate a day or Xocai protein bars to help with hunger or cravings
4) Exercise for 30-60 min 3-5 times a week.

For athletes or people with special needs the following is recommended:

1) Consume 1-2 X-Protein shake meals in addition to your regular meals.
2) Drink 1 Xe Healthy Energy Drink before and after strenuous exercise.
3) Eat 2-4 pieces of Healthy Chocolate a day or Xocai protein bars to help with hunger or cravings

In addition to these health regimens it is also recommended to reduce stress, sleep 7-8 hours a night, drink lots of water with lemon (to help with appetite control), increase physical activity, eat 2-3 healthy snacks a day, don't weigh yourself daily, start a food and diet tracking journal, and seek out a support group.

Chocolate Diet in Washington?

2010-10-29T12:40:00.001-07:00

Eventually, it happens to every Tacoma man or woman who has taken a haphazard approach to diet and exercise. The Health Reckoning. The Big Wake-up Call. Harsh Reality.
Call it what you may, but eventually us Lakewood slackers all realize that we have to live a healthy lifestyle to feel good, look good, and stay active.
For many Seattle folks, that means improving diet and
incorporating more exercise into chaotic schedules. Perhaps Seattle teens and Puyallup twenty-somethings can function without nutritious food, adequate sleep and regular exercise without noticing any ill-effects. But that lifestyle cannot continue indefinitely without serious consequence.
Our metabolism slows down as we age. It seems to take more discipline to maintain a healthy weight at 45 vs 25, especially around Washington. If you are having a hard time keeping your weight at a sensible level because you indulge in chocolate regularly, Xocai antioxidant chocolate is for you. Xocai delivers the dark chocolate fix without the fat and calories found in conventional chocolate products you find around Tacoma.
My name is Tehane Gallimore. I would love to chat with you about all the health benefits of Xocai healthy dark chocolate. I hold Xocai meetings at My home in the Tacoma area . I invite you to join me at my next meeting. If you want to lose weight but still enjoy chocolate daily, I can show you how. Contact me at 719-210-7588 or tsgallimore@gmail.com for information about my next meeting.

Tacoma Healthy Chocolate Review

2010-10-29T12:39:00.002-07:00

It is not surprising that Xocai healthy dark chocolate is getting a lot of attention. Doesn't the term "healthy chocolate" pique your interest as well as your taste buds?

Fox59 News in Indianapolis recently did a story on Xocai healthy chocolate. In the clip, entitled 'Xocai Healthy Chocolate Review', dietitian Jennifer Jones lists a few of the numerous health benefits of dark chocolate. Gerontologist Dr. Steve Warren explains why a bag of Hershey's Kisses purchased in a Tacoma supermarket is far inferior to Xocai healthy chocolate.

Are you looking forward to a 'Decade of Decadence' in Puyallup? With Xocai, your upcoming decade could be decadent in two different ways: mouthwatering chocolate and an equally scrumptious income.

I have teamed up with Xocai for a 'Decade of Decadence'. Is your future as stable and certain as Seattle dark chocolate demand?

Is Xocai Chocolate Really Good For You?

2010-10-29T12:39:00.000-07:00

I was cruising around the web in my Tacoma office the other day and came across an article from the Harvard Medical School. I was pleased to see this respected institution validate Xocai's physiological benefits.

Here is an excerpt about endothelial function:

The endothelium is the thin inner layer of arteries. It’s responsible for producing nitric oxide, a tiny chemical that widens blood vessels and keeps their linings smooth. Can chocolate help? Doctors in Greece think it may. They fed 100 grams (about 3½ oz) of dark chocolate to 17 healthy volunteers and observed rapid improvement in endothelial function. Swiss investigators found similar effects from dark chocolate.

German scientists reported that flavanol-rich cocoa can reverse the endothelial dysfunction produced by smoking, and European doctors reported that dark chocolate appears to improve coronary artery function in heart transplant patients. There’s good news for nonsmoking, original-heart people, too, since Harvard researchers found that cocoa can blunt the endothelial dysfunction associated with aging.

I am Tehane Gallimore, an independent Xocai distributor based in Tacoma, Washington. If you would like to try the type of healthy dark chocolate described in the Harvard Medical School article, contact me at 719-210-7588 or tsgallimore@gmail.com. If you live in Puyallup, University Place or Lakewood, you may want to come to my next Xocai healthy chocolate discussion.

Remember, you don't have to give up 'New York Times chocolate' to maintain health and vigor. You can think of Xocai antioxidant chocolate as a sweet treat or as a health supplement. Either way, it will benefit both your body and mind.

Yes, It Grows On Trees (Just Not Around Tacoma)!

2010-10-29T12:37:00.002-07:00

Think about the last time you got to enjoy chocolate while out and around Tacoma. Perhaps it was a chocolate milkshake at a Puyallup restaurant. Maybe it was a Snickers bar you picked up at a Lakewood 7-11 whose wrapper is still stuffed in a cup holder in your car. It could have been a chocolate chip cookie still warm from the oven.

Whatever it was, did you pause to think about where the chocolate came from? Though it seems to come straight from heaven, chocolate is actually produced from cacao, a plant-based food. Just like peaches, almonds, and bananas, cacao is a natural substance that comes from a tree. Technically, cacao is a fruit.

The theobroma cacao is an equatorial tree whose fruit is shaped somewhat like a football. These color of the pods range from a purplish-brown to a golden shade and can grow to over a foot long. The tree is extremely productive, it shoots out pods year-round and can produce nearly two thousand per year. My favorite thing about the cacao is that its pods not only hang from its branches, they even sprout directly from the trunk! -biological efficiency at its best!

University Place Xocai healthy chocolate products are made from nature's most potent source of antioxidants. Cacao seeds have more antioxidants than blueberries, grapes and green tea. The more I learn about Xocai healthy chocolate, the more I enjoy sharing Xocai with health-conscience Seattle folks who want to enjoy chocolate without guilt.

Would you like to sample Xocai antioxidant chocolate? I would be happy to meet with you soon. Give me a call at 719-210-7588. I am Tehane Gallimore, your Tacoma source for weight-loss chocolate

Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies In Tacoma?

2010-10-29T12:37:00.000-07:00

Many Tacoma people still believe the following fallacy: 'If it tastes good, it must be bad for you.' Puyallup folks who have tried Xocai Power Squares or Nuggets know that some health chocolate is delicious. But what about healthy chocolate chip cookies? Achieving perfect cookie texture can be tricky, even when using traditional heart-clogging ingredients. Successful baking requires a degree of precision not necessary in many other types of food preparation.

Xocai figured out how to make a chocolate nutrition cookie with all the necessary elements: correct chip/cookie ratio, satisfying texture, proper sweetness level, and genuine chocolate flavor.

X Powerhouse cookies are loaded with antioxidant chocolate chips, natural sweeteners and (surprise!) fiber. What do Xocai X Powerhouse cookies lack? Refined sugars, trans-fats, chemicals and the guilt factor.

Snacking on X Powerhouse Cookies can help break the cycle of unhealthy dietary habits. You and your family can still experience the great taste and decadence of a snack food without suffering the dangerous health consequences. Xocai is the chocolate nutrition company for Seattle families who are trying to live healthier.

I am Tehane Gallimore, an independent Tacoma Xocai distributor. Xocai antioxidant chocolate products are helping my family live healthier. If you eat chocolate regularly, you may want to try Xocai. My phone number is 719-210-7588. I love to share Xocai with Seattle chocolate lovers who want to replace the bad with the good.

Give me a call if you have questions about Xocai dark chocolate or the Xocai Lakewood business opportunity.

Marie Osmond Loves Xocai Chocolate

2010-10-29T12:35:00.001-07:00

Because Xocai healthy chocolate is quickly gaining popularity in Tacoma, many wanna-be healthy dark chocolate products are popping up. (This is yet another example of the fact that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.) Some of the healthy chocolate companies trying to get in on the action tout 'high cocoa content'.

So what's the deal with 'high cocoa content'? First off, high cocoa content does not necessarily guarantee a healthy Seattle chocolate product. If that product also contains a considerable amount of saturated fats, refined sugar, wax, and preservatives, 'high cocoa content' can mean very little; you have to know your chocolate.

Secondly, the cocoa powder used in virtually all chocolate products sold in Puyallup, University Place and Lakewood has been stripped of its original nutrients. Remember, Xocai antioxidant chocolate is processed with a patented cold-press method that retains the nutrients in the manufacturing process. There is no weight-loss chocolate like Xocai because Xocai has a patent on the cold-press method.

"Numerous studies have confirmed the benefits of healthy, dark chocolate. Of course, it’s crucial that any chocolate be processed properly to maintain its nutrient and antioxidant content. The good news is that Xocai healthy chocolate products provide just that."
-Dr. Steven Warren

Business Opportunities for Seattle

2010-10-29T12:10:00.001-07:00

My name is Tehane Gallimore. I sell Xocai healthy chocolate in Tacoma.
Creating a lucrative business as a Xocai healthy chocolate distributor in Seattle is not for slackers. You must be committed to your Puyallup business and work to make it successful. There is no minimum income guaranteed. Contrary to what some MLM scam promoters promise, the orders don't roll in immediately when you sign up.
However, consistent effort to promote Xocai healthy antioxidant chocolate will bring results. Because Xocai is an MLM, your hard work in the beginning will create a network that will eventually generate income on its own.
Though it required time and effort to build, my Lakewood downline began producing sooner than I expected. I still dedicate several hours per week to my business, but it has gained momentum that is steadily increasing my income without increasing my hours.

Think about your current situation for a moment. Are you working hard for your University Place employer? Are you skilled and confident in your position? Are you committed to the success of your department and Puyallup company as a whole?
If you answered yes to those questions, here is another one: is your hard work paying off? Are you adequately compensated for your experience, efforts and expertise?
What if you dedicated your skills to your own Puyallup weight loss chocolate business marketing opportunity? What if your hard work actually resulted in increased income?
You don't have to worry about the product. The demand for antioxidant chocolate is growing as more people learn about its amazing health benefits and take advantage of business opportunities with Xocai.
Call me today at 7192107588 to get started.

What Makes You Happy?

2010-10-29T12:07:00.001-07:00

What makes you happy?
One of my Tacoma neighbors says 'my family'. My closest friend predictably said "friends". A Lakewood business associate insists 'money'. Almost everyone I know says 'chocolate' never fails to bring a smile to their face. A friend who lives in Seattle answered 'love'. A Tacoma Facebook friend believes that happiness is not possible without freedom. A University Place humanitarian says that he always feels better when he is helping people.
I am independent distributor Tehane Gallimore of Tacoma, Washington. Working as an independent Seattle Xocai distributor makes me very happy. And guess what? The reasons are the same! The flexibility of owning a network marketing business gives me the freedom to spend time with those I love - my family and friends.
I enjoy helping people improve their health and make money by sharing Xocai. And, of course, I love eating Xocai healthy chocolate!
There's more; Chocolate literally elevates my mood because it triggers the release of endorphins, the 'feel good' neurotransmitters.
Do you need a mood booster? Xocai chocolate may be your ticket to happiness. I would be happy to tell you more (sorry, I couldn't resist). I can be reached at 7192107588 and tsgallimore@gmail.com.
Here's wishing you a very happy day!

Healthy Chocolate for Aging Baby Boomers

2010-10-15T11:26:00.000-07:00

Hello! Welcome to my Xocai healthy chocolate blog. If you are new to this site, let me tell you about my Tacoma antioxidant chocolate business.
I am independent distributor Tehane Gallimore. I have been sharing Xocai antioxidant chocolate since December, 2009.
Xocai chocolate products have an antioxidant content that is unsurpassed for chocolate or most any other food popular in Tacoma. Xocai contains cacao and acai berries. These two foods are the ultimate nutritional supplements/snacks/health foods/fruits; whatever you want to call them!
Xocai has a complete line of healthy chocolate products for Seattle chocolate fiends who need a regular chocolate fix.
I am one of those hard-core chocolate fanatics, …but I am also concerned about my health. What does Xocai do for me? It boosts my energy, helps me keep my weight at a healthy level and gives me that "I can conquer the world" feeling.
I am looking for motivated people to share Xocai antioxidant chocolate. If you live in Puyallup, University Place or Lakewood you may be interested in your own Xocai distributorship. While some markets are shrinking, the chocolate industry continues to expand in Washington. Healthy chocolate appeals not only to chocolate regulars but also baby boomers who are concerned about health problems that seem almost unavoidable as we age. Antioxidants are the answer to many problems associated with aging.
If you are interested in building a chocolate business for yourself, call me at 7192107588 today. I look forward to discussing my business and answering any questions you may have. Send me a note from my Contact Page.
