We just received the results from Brunswick Laboratory (the nationaly accepted reference for ORAC testing). As it turns out we were right. Processing our chocolate with our patent pending process maintains the high antioxidant value of the cocoa. Measured in trolox per 100 grams of Healthy Chocolate, the ORAC value is 85,067. To remind you, the USDA ORAC value for regular dark chocolate is 20,816. Yes, our chocolate is more than 4 times more potent.
Since every piece of every chocolate weighs 8 grams (about a third on an ounce), that means every piece of tasty Healthy Chocolate provides you with 6,805 ORAC unit. That is more that what you need to take care of your daily oxidative stress. Indeed “A Healthy Chocolate a day will keep the Doctor away.” After all an apple's ORAC is just 4,275 per 100 grams.
