Brunswick Labs: A Seal of Superior Quality

The antioxidant compounds in any food can be measured by their capacity to absorb free radicals. A testing method called ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity), developed by the USDA, is the standard for measuring the antioxidant ability of foods. The principal ingredients in Xocai - cacao, acai and blueberry - contain various free radical fighting polyphenols, including flavanols, epicatechins, catechins, procyanidins, and vitamins C and A.

The astounding ORAC scores for the various products in Xocai come from Brunswick Labs, an independent, third-party analytical laboratory that provides analytical services for some of the world's finest research institutions, corporations, and public organizations. Xocai is now enrolled in Brunswick Labs' Certified program, an authoritative quality assurance system that issues certification to products that have met strict criteria for some of their most popular ORAC tests. The program is designed to help consumers cut through the confusion surrounding ORAC scores and antioxidant values, as well as to discern which products make questionable claims regarding their antioxidant values.
