That Choccy Glow
Get that choccy after glow and feel the nourishing goodness of raw Cacao, Tremella Mushroom and Moringa organically homegrown right here in the sunny Top End of Australia !
Not only does our choccy blend taste amazing it's packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and thanks to the beauty queen of mushrooms, Tremella, it contains polysaccharides beneficial to promoting collagen synthesis in the skin.
Tremella facts:
Many of tremella’s health benefits are due to its high amounts of polysaccharides which are antioxidants that can help keep skin hydrated and healthy. Additionally, the high amounts of vitamin D in tremella play a role in its skin boosting benefits; vitamin D is essential in helping skin cell growth, and both repairing and preventing premature skin aging. Vitamin D is also a fat-soluble vitamin, which means it plays a role in keeping skin hydrated and supple.
Not only that but the Vitamin D in Tremella mushroom is thought to play an important role in supporting our mood, serotonin levels and melatonin regulation – and we all know how important quality sleep is for rejuvenating our brain and entire body. So, if you haven't been able to catch as much vitamin D promoting time in the sun as you’d like Tremella could be your backup plan.
Moringa Facts
Moringa oleifera is a plant that has been praised for its health benefits for thousands of years.
Moringa is one of the richest plant sources of Vitamin A, B, C, D, E, K and Anti-oxidants.
The vital minerals present in Moringa include Calcium, Copper, Iron, Potassium, Magnesium, Manganese and Zinc.
Moringa also makes an excellent caffeine free energy drink as it's an adaptogenic herb, helping the body to 'adapt' to life's stresses.
Moringa is often referred to as 'the miracle plant' and contains a mix of essential amino acids. It's high in anti-aging compounds useful for helping prevent complications due to aging and other hormonal changes. For breastfeeding mothers, undoubtedly one of the most amazing benefits of moringa is that it has been scientifically proven to increase breast milk supply. Moringa leaves are a natural galactagogue - a substance that promotes or increases the flow of a mother's milk.
Moringa Leaf also contains a type of acid called chlorogenic acid which has shown to be a beneficial tool in helping to control blood sugar levels and the take up or release of glucose as needed by the body.
Moringa oleifera can lower your cholesterol levels, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease.
Moringa also contains calcium and phosphorous, which help keep bones healthy and strong.
Along with its anti-inflammatory properties moringa extract might help to treat conditions such as arthritis and may also heal damaged bones.
