Ashwagandha is an adaptogen—a class of natural substances that help the body cope with stress-induced dysfunction. It works through the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary/adrenal axis) and SAS (sympathoadrenal system) to reduce stress hormones, build mental stamina, and stabilize emotions.*
Cinnamon is a well-documented blood glucose stabilizer. This means it seems to possess unique powers to level out the blood sugar spikes and crashes that can trigger carbohydrate cravings in the first place.*
Cardamom is a warm spice with serious antioxidant potential. Researchers believe it may reduce inflammation throughout the body, stabilize blood sugar, protect the lining of the GI tract, and promote feelings of well-being.*
Cacao is made by simply cold-pressing cacao beans. This process keeps the living enzymes intact, which can increase levels of certain neurotransmitters that promote a sense of well-being. We also selected cacao that is naturally high in phenethylamine, a brain chemical that is released when we experience deep feelings of love. Additional antioxidants like resveratrol have been show to cross the blood-brain barrier to help protect your nervous system from stress. The average store-bought chocolate bar has few (if any) of these PMS-fighting compounds.*
Coconut sugar is naturally and sustainably derived from coconut palm trees. Research shows it can be more nutritious with a lower glycemic index than other sugars, especially those pesky artificial sweeteners.*
