[What is Pine bark?]

Pine bark, botanical name Pinus pinaster, is a maritime pine native to southwest France that also grows in countries along the western Mediterranean.  Pine bark contains a number of beneficial compounds that are extracted from the bark in a way that doesn’t destroy or damage the tree.

[How does it work?]

What gives pine bark extract its notoriety as a powerful ingredient and super antioxidant is that it’s loaded with oligomeric proanthocyanidin compounds, OPCs for short. The same ingredient can be found in grape seeds, the skin of peanuts and witch hazel bark. But what makes this miracle ingredient so amazing?

While OPCs found in this extract are mostly known for their antioxidant-producing benefits, these amazing compounds exude antibacterial, antiviral, anticarcinogenic, anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties. Pine bark extract can help reduce muscle soreness and may help improve conditions relating to poor circulation, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, diabetes, ADHD, female reproductive issues, skin, erectile dysfunction, eye disease and sports stamina.

Seems like it must be pretty amazing, but let’s look closer. The list goes on a bit further, as the OPCs in this extract may “inhibit lipid peroxidation, platelet aggregation, capillary permeability and fragility, and to affect enzyme systems,” which basically means it may be a natural treatment for many serious health conditions, such as stroke and heart disease.

How is chocolate made? This video is about the craft of making pure healthy chocolate.

Our previous videos show Gregory hunting cacao in Ecuador. Next the cacao was fermented and dried. Then it was processed in to cacao liquor, all in preparation for today, when Nova Monda will make heart healthy chocolate. Chocolate is healthy because of the high levels of antioxidant flavonoids. Chocolate has many health benefits because of these high levels.

Hi, my name is Gregory Landua and I’m here at the Nova Monda Cacao & Chocolate world headquarters where we craft the worlds finest chocolate. This block of cacao will be melted down and put in the melangeur. Let’s bring it next door and start a batch of dark chocolate. Coconut oil has been added. I will now take the pure healthy chocolate that has been gently warmed in our oven, named spock, and pour it in to our amazing melangeur where it will be stone ground.

This is a machine that uses ancient technology, stone grinding, combined with modern technology, an electric motor, to make the pure healthy chocolate that you love.

Now I am just going to pour this amazing cacao goodness in to the stone grinder. Evaporated cane juice is a great healthy alternative to sugar. It is the last ingredient in our amazing dark chocolate. The main ingredient pure healthy chocolate is of course the amazing cacao that we sourced from in this case Ecuador. We also get our cacao from Nicaragua.

Here we are at Nova Monda’s store where we sell all of our pure healthy chocolate. A lot of people ask, “How is chocolate made?”. And we can tell them that our dark chocolate is made right here in the same shop.

Here are the three main healthy chocolate types that you have come to know and love. Indio, bisiesto, and nacional. These are our jar chocolates. We have gift sets, nibs, cacao, cocoa powder. All sorts of amazing products with lots of antioxidant flavonoids which of course make our healthy chocolate the best it can be.

healthy chocolate

The reason I love this soy milk pudding is simply because its flavour is very similar to the traditional dessert, Tofu Fa, which I grew up with. Tofu fa requires gypsum powder to curd the soy milk, but I can’t find any access to this unusual ingredient here. So, the use of agar agar becomes the alternative. Agar agar gives a firmer texture to the pudding but it doesn’t affect the taste of the soy. Make it out of any cute mould you have to surprise your little one.

Ingredients:
2 cups Unsweetened Soy Milk
4 gram Agar Agar Powder
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Ginger Syrup:
4 tablespoons Brown Sugar
2 tablespoons Water
1 teaspoon Ground Ginger

材料：
2 杯 無糖豆漿
4 克 燕菜粉
1 茶匙 雲呢拿油

薑汁：
4 湯匙 黑糖
2 湯匙 水
1 茶匙 薑粉
