Elite Dark Chocolate Review and GIVEAWAY!

I love chocolate and I know you do too. Cacao itself is actually very healthy but bitter, so things like sugar and milk are added to it to make delicious chocolate. I eat dark chocolate (over 60% cacao and dairy free) moderately to reap the health benefits and satisfy my sweet tooth. I was really excited when my friend in Knoxville told me about about a new chocolate brand that makes dark chocolate even healthier. So I contacted Elite Dark Chocolate and they sent me some samples and offered to host a giveaway for my readers!

Elite makes dark chocolate squares from high-quality french chocolate and infuses them with other healthy ingredients. Here's an overview of the three different flavors:

ENERGY

• Contains added herbs:
• Ashwagandha, boosts immune system and stress relief
• Maca, good for energy and endurance
• Gingeng, endurance and fatigue relief
• Caffeine (equal to 1 espresso)
• Great for pre-workout or in the morning

FIT

• Infused with:
• Raspberry Ketone, which is found in red raspberries and helps regulate metabolism
• Green Coffee Bean Extract (50% Chlorogenic acids), stabilizes blood sugar levels
• Great for weight loss and as an after-dinner dessert

VITAMIN D

• Contains Vitamin D3, which is essential for immune system health and may help to prevent diseases like cancer.
• Eat daily and after a meal with leafy greens to help absorb calcium

My first impression of the chocolate was the wonderful taste. It is creamy with just the right amount of sweetness. The added supplements go unnoticed in the flavor. The good things is that the chocolates come wrapped in individual square so you don't eat the whole bar at once (I've done that before). And each piece has only 4.5 g of sugar, which is just enough to make it sweet but not unhealthy. 

I've been eating one of two of these daily. The ENERGY flavor give you a good boost before a workout and the VITAMIN D is good after lunch because it's normally when you would get Vitamin D from sun exposure (around noon) and also helps you absorb calcium from a leafy-green salad (my usual lunch). The FIT flavor is good after dinner as dessert, especially if that'd your unhealthiest or biggest meal of the day. Green coffee bean extract helps stabilize blood sugar levels, which is good if you've eaten a carb-heavy meal. 

I'm definitely going to be purchasing more of this chocolate because I love the idea of having treats that are also healthy! You can buy Elite Dark Chocolate on the website or at select health food stores, they are expanding!
