Nutrtional Facts

At the core of Heart Chocolate™ with CM-X™ is a compound of concentrated and isolated extracts of cinnamon and bitter melon molecules, combined to form CM-X™. Here’s some more information about the powerful properties and health benefits of these two natural herbs.

Cinnamon

Cinnamon has been widely used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine and as a traditional folk herb remedy for diabetics in Russia, China, Korea and India. A new study recently released in Diabetes Care magazine shows raw cinnamon alone, without the benefits of being scientifically enhanced and synergistically blended with bitter melon, has been clinically proven over a period of 40 days to:

decrease fasting glucose by 18 – 29%
decrease cholesterol by 12 – 26%
decrease trigylcerides by 23 – 30%

(Khan, A, et all. Diabetes Care 26:3215-3218, 2003)

Additionally, USDA research has shown that the water extraction process leaves Type-A polymers responsible for glucose metabolism intact, while removing potentially dangerous compounds found in cinnamon. (Anderson, R, et al. J. Agric. Food Chem. 52:65-70, 2004)

The extracts found in Heart Chocolate™ with CM-X™ have minimized the level of toxins to a greater extent than any other product on the market while maximizing the level of active ingredients responsible for reducing blood glucose. We have provided a bibliography of research, articles and abstracts as well as a comparative analysis of our extracts.

Bitter melon

People in tropical areas have used bitter melon for its pharmaceutical properties since the 16th century. It has been recognized for its anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-cancer and immunomodulatory properties and glucose-lowering abilities. In animal studies, bitter melon has been shown to reduce insulin resistance and to potentiate the effect of insulin. Furthermore, bitter melon has been observed to decrease obesity, and modestly reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels in animals.

Cinnamon + bitter melon extracts = CM-X™

Our scientists have scientifically combined the active ingredients of cinnamon and bitter melon using an exclusive and proprietary manufacturing process. Combined in a patented proprietary ratio containing 30 times more of the concentrated molecules than found naturally in these two herbs, this combination is scientifically proven to be the most effective dosage for the treatment and prevention of Type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol and cardiovascular conditions. CM-X™ is a major advancement over raw cinnamon and other products containing standardized extracts of cinnamon.
