TRU Chocolate is made with a proprietary herbal formula, using and all-natural, chocolate based delivery system that also provides for the positive effects that cocoa has on the body. Studies have also shown these ingredients may promote healthy blood sugar levels. Some of the ingredients in TRU Chocolates have been traditionally used for centuries in China, India, the Amazon, Tibet and many other places to assist in regulating blood sugar levels.*
TRU Chocolate Has All Natural Toxin-Free Ingredients: Organic Cocoa Liqueur, Organic Cocoa Butter, Xylitol, Proprietary Herbal Formula, Natural Vanilla Extract and Organic Lecitin. A proprietary blend containing Momordica, Charantia, Dehydrated Noni Fruit, Bioflavonoids (Citrus Extract), Ellagic Acid (from pomegranate), Green Tea Extract, Fabanol®** and Bioperine®** (from black pepper).
Organic Cocoa Liquor:
It’s produced by grinding the cocoa bean nib (center) to a smooth, liquid state. The Cocoa liquor can then be cooled and molded into blocks.
Organic Cocoa Butter:
Also called the obroma oil, it is the edible natural fat of the cacao bean, extracted during the process of making chocolate and cocoa powder.
Xylitol:
Xylitol is a white crystalline substance that looks and tastes like sugar. It is a popular sweetener for the diabetic diet. Xylitol is right here, inside, already. Our bodies produce up to 15 grams of Xylitol from other food sources using established energy pathways. Xylitol is not a strange or artificial substance, but a normal part of everyday metabolism.
Momordica Charantia
a tropical and subtropical vine of the family Cucurbitaceae, widely grown for edible fruit
Noni Fruit
noni fruit has excellent levels of carbohydrates and dietary fiber, providing 55% and 100% of the Dietary Reference Intakes, respectively, in a 100 g serving. A good source of protein (12% DRI), noni pulp is low in total fats (4% DRI).
Citrus Extract
A good sources of vitamin C and flavonoids. A sweetener from botanical extract derived from the seeds, pulp, andinner rinds of certified organically grown citrus extracts do not contain wheat, rye, oats, corn, barley, gluten, starch, soy, egg, dairy, yeast, sulfates, chlorides, wax, preservatives, colorings, or artificial flavorings.
Ellagic Acid
Ellagic acid is a polyphenol antioxidant found in numerous fruits and vegetables including raspberries, strawberries, cranberries, walnuts, pecans, pomegranates and other plant foods. The antiproliferative and antioxidant properties of ellagic acid have spurred preliminary research into the potential health benefits of ellagic acid consumption.
May be one the most potent ways to fight Cancer. Ellagic Acid, a phenolic compound, is a proven anti-carcinogen, anti-mutagen, anti-cancer initiator, and a natural anti-bacterial found in many foods
Green Tea Extract
In a study reported on in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, it was found that green tea extract resulted in a significant increase in energy expenditure (a measure of metabolism), plus also had a significant effect on fatoxidation. While some of the effects were originally theorized to be due to the caffeine content of green tea, the researchers discovered that the tea actually has properties that go beyond those that would be explained by the caffeine.The same amount of caffeine as was in the green tea, administered alone, failed to change energy expenditure in other studies. This led researchers to believe that there is some interaction going on with the active ingredients of green tea that promotes increased metabolism and fat oxidation.
The researchers indicated that their findings have substantial implications for weight control. A 4% overall increase in 24-hour energy expenditure was attributed to the green tea extract, however, the research found that the extra expenditure took place during the daytime. This led them to conclude that, since thermogenesis (the body’s own rate of burning calories) contributes 8-10% of daily energy expenditure in a typical subject, that this 4% overall increase in energy expenditure due to the green tea actually translated to a 35-43% increase in daytime thermogenesis.
Fabanol
Fabanol® - Studies have shown Fabanol® to block sugar absorption
Bioperine®
Bioprine is a standardized extract from the fruit of Piper nigrum L (black pepper) or Piper longum L (long pepper). It contains 95 percent of piperine. Bioprine may be co-administered with various nutrients for health. Piperine, in the patented form of Bioperine®, enhances the body’s natural thermogenic activity. This enhancement may be explained as a means of increasing the thermal energy sufficient to “power up” the mechanism related to thermogenesis. This in turn results in increased metabolic processes that creates a “demand” for “supply” of a broad range of nutrients that contribute to metabolism, i.e. vitamins, minerals, herbals, amino acids, etc. It is as if Bioperine® activates a metabolic paddle wheel, of sorts, that selectively provides a more efficient mode of nutrient transportation into the blood.
Vanilla Extract
Pure vanilla gives us one of the most complex tastes in the world, having well over 250 organic components creating its unique flavor and aroma.
Lectin
Lectins serve many different biological functions from the regulation of cell adhesion to glycoprotein synthesis and the control of protein levels in the blood. Lectins are also known to play important roles in the immune system.
Organic Lecithin
lecithin is the emulsifier that keeps cocoa and cocoa butter from separating.
