Heart and Brain Health with CocoaVia and a Smoothie!
*Disclaimer: I received samples from CocoaVia for my review. All opinions expressed here are my own.
Health conscious moms everywhere are always looking for ways to improve health. One of the best ways to improve health is through diet and nutrition. This is why as a fit mom of two growing kids I have looked to CocoaVia when it comes to my heart and brain health and for my kids.
What is CocoaVia? CocoaVia comes in 450 mg Cocoa Flavanol Capsules and also Cocoa Flavanol Powdered Drink Mix. The cocoa flavanols in CocoaVia™ supplement have been shown to promote healthy blood flow. This ensures that your entire brain remains nourished and can perform at its best. Cocoa Flavanols support heart, brain, and total body health. The health of your cardiovascular system is improved by the increase in nitric oxide levels after using CocoaVia products. The Cocoa Flavanols come from the freshest cocoa beans traceable back to farms in Nicaragua.
What exactly are Flavanols? Flavanols are a type of polyphenol found in Cacao. Polyphenols are thought to have a protective antioxidant effect on humans. Flavanols in cacao and dark chocolate are associated with benefits of hear and brain health. Cocoa Flavanols can be destroyed in the process of making chocolate so using CocoaVia is one of the great ways to ensure that you are taking in these beneficial Flavanols.
CocoaVia can be taken in its capsule form. 2 capsules have 450mg of cocoa flavanols. Or you can use the CocoaVia Cocoa Flavanol powdered drink mix which comes in 4 flavors-Unsweetened, Sweetened Dark, Original Flavor Cocoa, and Cran-Raspberry Cocoa. You can add this to water or milk for your daily serving of Cocoa Flavanols. Or it can even be added to a favorite smoothie!

I feel like I tried this a few years back. I like your addition of the spinach too! Looks refreshing
That smoothie looks super yummy! I’ve heard of this brand before but never tried it so thanks so much for the review.
That looks good! I’m generally not a smoothie person – but it sounds like this is a great way to pack in lots of nutrients!
Love CocoVia. And love the bicycle glass! Great recipe.
