Especially as we come out of the Valentine’s Day-Easter season, many may admittedly be chocolated out (as if there is such a thing!). However, I do have one more chocolate company to discuss (or maybe two).

All dark chcolates have at least some heart- and brain-boosting flavonoids. MA-made Flava Naturals, however, offers up to nine times the flavanoids of most other brands!

Another super-health-conscious brand that I have recently discovered is Elements Truffles. And while these delicious bars, cocoa mixes, and coco fuels (which combine organic cocoa nibs with pure Vernmont maple syrup) contain all the nutritional plusses contemporary fans demand, they are based upon healthy concetps that go back centuries.

Ayurveda means “the science of life” in the ancient Indian language of Sanskrit. After immigrating form India, the founders of Elements became Wall Street traders and so became familiar with how stressful life can be. After finding their own way back to their ancestral roots, they designed Elements Truffles to bring the best of both worlds- health-sustaining, delicious, fairly-traded chocolate and spirit-sustaining simplicity.

In addition to helping customers feel better, Elements also donates a full 25% of proceeds to Care for Children (www.CareforChildren.org), which helps kids in the founders’ native India. So this a is a chocolate that you can feel good about eating any time of year!
