Beans..Whole Grains…Chocolate?!

Yes my friends, the day has come: you can now get your protein from your chocolate!! Gnosis Chocolate unveils our newest flavor: PowerChoc! The ultimate natural protein bar has arrived, and it is not only cruelty-free (no milk in this bar!), it is also free of two of the most common allergens: soy and gluten.

So where does our PowerChoc get its additional ‘power’ from? The Power of PowerChoc is twofold:

1. Highly Absorbable Protein from hempseed, sprout powders, almonds  (the highest protein, lowest fat nut!), sunflower seeds, maca (also an adaptogenic and aphrodisiac herb!*) spirulina & chlorella (two protein-dense, high chorophyll algaes), and goji berries (loaded with an impressive array of nutrients and phytochemicals.

2. Medicinal Herbs for Assimilation- Siberian Ginseng, blue-green algae, and cordyceps mushroom.

Let’s go in depth!

Hemp. I know you stopped at this word! Relax, this superfood is a wonderful way to get protein. In PowerChoc we use hemp in the form of a mild-tasting protein–powder. The powder alone has more than three and a half grams of protein per tablespoon – and contains all of the essential amino acids, making it a complete protein as well.

Essential Amino acids serve as the building blocks of protein and are vital for muscle regeneration, the development of lean body tissue, and the continued health of bones, skin, hair, and nails. They are vital for life, and especially so for those looking to build more muscle mass.

The bar also has Siberian Ginseng (Eleuthero). This is possibly the world's most renowned herb for energy, stamina, and physical endurance, memory, mental acuity, and - being an adaptogenic herb - it helps with adaptation to stress by supporting the adrenal glands. Eluthero has also shown to improve the use of oxygen by the exercising muscle, so you can maintain aerobic exercise for longer, with shorter recovery time. PowerChoc is perfect gym food!

We also included “Super Ginseng,” or Cordyceps Mushrooms. In traditional Chinese Medicine, Cordyceps Sinensis is considered to benefit the lung and kidney channels. It is commonly used with the elderly in China as a type of "super ginseng" for rejuvenation and stamina.

And if you’re at all wary about the taste of all of these herbs, nuts, and powders, do not fear, as great care has been taken to ensure that all of the ingredients in the Gnosis PowerChoc bar combine to create a taste that is rich, tempting, and enlivening.

There is no other bar on the planet so CHOC full of POWER!
