Chocolate cream with collagen makadamiový olej, tahitská vanilka - 125 g

Product detailed description

Why buy

Incacao 's decadent chocolate cream won't weigh down your digestion, plus it fits perfectly into your keto or low carb diet plan.

One of the key ingredients is caprylic acid from coconut (MCT) - read about MCT's health benefits here, followed by transfused ghee butter, rich in fat-soluble vitamins, omega 3 and linoleic acid, and macadamia oil (rich in omega 7).

The cream is also enriched with a collagen complex. It's great for pastries, as a filling for various desserts, as a sweet dip or just a spoonful when you're feeling hungry.

• The chocolate flavour of the cream comes from real raw chocolate, no artificial flavours.
• Raw chocolate is one of the so-called superfoods thanks to its rich content of minerals and antioxidants.
• The cream does not contain any glucose or fructose. It is gently sweetened by a combination of natural sweeteners - thaumatin, D-ribose and erythritol.

Main components

CAPRYLIC ACID (C8) derived from COCONUT 10%: belongs to the medium chain triglycerides, called MCT. These completely bypass the gastrointestinal tract and go directly to the liver for ketone production. Thanks to this, they give us energy almost immediately and for a long time. This process is otherwise also referred to as "glucose from fats".

There are eleven different fatty acids in coconut. Four of these are MCTs: caproic acid (C6), caprylic acid (C8), capric acid (C10) and lauric acid (C12).

C12 is technically an MCT, but the body processes it as a long-chain fatty acid. During a fast or a low-carbohydrate or keto diet, the body naturally starts to create ketone bodies in the liver.

There are 3 main types of ketone bodies - first the body makes acetoacetate (AcAc), then converts it to beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) and when there is enough BHB, the rest is converted to acetone, which we exhale or urinate.

C8 is the most bioavailable for ketone formation in the liver and gives the body an extra boost.

COLAGEN 10%: after water, it is the most abundant nutrient in our body. They make up 35% of the total protein in our body. After the age of 25, however, its natural production in the body decreases, so it needs to be replenished externally.

It is required for bile production (33% glycine) for fat metabolism and skin elasticity and regeneration. It is also needed for bone building. Although 60% of the bone is made up of minerals, 90% of the protein matrix in bone is collagen.

However, the current diet is poor in collagen, because today we mainly eat lean muscle meat, which is high in the amino acid methionine and low in glycine. Glycine is needed to suppress methionine. Collagen is rich in the amino acids glycine, proline, hydroxyproline.

GHI 10%: Incacao uses its own cultured Ayurvedic ghee in its products, which is well tolerated even by people with lactose or casein sensitivity. It is full of fat-soluble vitamins (A,D,E,K2), omega 3 (DHA and EPA) and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a natural trans fat.

Linoleic acid is important for maintaining normal weight and reducing fat mass. It is also the richest source of the short-chain fatty acid 'butyrate', which nourishes beneficial gut bacteria.

MACADAMIC OIL: contains 85% monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and about 24% palmitoleic acid.

Omega 7 (palmitoleic acid) is a lipokine (the king among fats) works in conjunction with omega 3 and virtually controls what omega 3's do in the body.

• Palmitoleic acid promotes a reduction in appetite due to the presence of cholecystokinin (satiety hormone).
• It also improves overall insulin sensitivity (better carbohydrate utilization) by preventing beta insulin cell apoptosis (cells that work with insulin don't die) and better insulin utilization so that carbohydrates don't get stored as much as fat.
• It also helps muscle cells use insulin better. This means that carbohydrates are used more productively and communicate better in the muscles, rather than raising blood sugar levels unnecessarily and for long periods of time.
• Palmitoleic acid also promotes CRP (C-reactive protein) reduction, triglyceride reduction, low LDL oxidation and HDL increase.

People should have a 6:1:1 ratio of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) to polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) to saturated fatty acids (SFA).

RAW CHOCOLATE: Pure chocolate is a superfood. 100g of pure chocolate contains 58% DDD magnesium, 68% DDD iron, 89% DDD copper and 98% DDD manganese.

Cocoa contains more phenolic antioxidants than most foods.

It contains a wide range of antioxidants that include soluble phenolic compounds (phenolic acids, catechin, epicatechin and proanthocyanidins), insoluble polymeric phenols and methylxanthines.

It has an ORAC value (oxygen radical absorbance capacity or measure of antioxidant activity of food) of 95 500 μmol TE/100 g. For example, the super antioxidant blueberry berries have only 4 669 μ mol TE/100 g.
