FAQ's About CocoaVia, Cocoa Flavanols, & More

How much caffeine is in CocoaVia™ products?

All CocoaVia™ supplement products are made with our proprietary Cocoapro cocoa extract. As the product is made from cocoa, our products naturally contain some caffeine.

If I want cardio and memory benefits, do I need to take both memory and cardio products together?

The short answer is no.

To support cardiovascular health, try our Cardio Health products made with the same Cocoapro™ extract and flavanol levels clinically proven in COSMOS.

Memory products contain 135mg of (-)-epicatechin per serving. (-)-Epicatechin is the active molecule in cocoa flavanol compounds. In addition to cognitive benefits, the level of (-)-epicatechin in memory products support cardiovascular performance. For consumers interested in both cognitive and cardiovascular performance we recommend our memory products.

What is the cadmium content in CocoaVia™ products?

CocoaViaproducts are made with our proprietary Cocoapro™ cocoa extract. While cocoa products can contain high levels of cadmium, the process used to make our extract does not lead to a concentration of any heavy metals, including cadmium. We know from our testing and testing done by others that our products have significantly lower cadmium levels than many commercially-available cocoa products on the market today. ConsumerLab performed testing on our products and determined there was <0.01 mcg/serving for Memory+ capsules, <0.007 mcg/serving for Cardio capsules, and 0.3 mcg/serving for our Cardio Powder. 

Is CocoaVia™ safe for people taking medication?

To the best of our knowledge, CocoaViacocoa extract supplement may be suitable for individuals taking certain medications. As with any dietary supplement, we always recommend consulting with your physician before including CocoaViainto your daily regimen/lifestyle.

How much (-)-epicatechin is in serving of your products?

CocoaVia™ Cardio Health products contain 500 mg of total cocoa flavanols, of which 80-85 mg is (-)-epicatechin for capsules and 80 mg for powder. Memory+ contains 750 mg of total cocoa flavanols, of which 135 mg is (-)-epicatechin. Using a botanical blend of Cocoapro™ cocoa extract and (-)-epicatechin from green tea leaves, Memory & Focus delivers 135mg.

What is the difference between CocoaVia™ and other (-)- epicatechin products?

CocoaVia™ Memory+ is a new product in the CocoaVia™ line that contains 750 mg of cocoa flavanols. The cocoa flavanols are delivered through Mars’s proprietary Cocoapro™ cocoa extract. These flavanols and the extract itself are clinically proven to improve memory and cognitive function. Cocoa flavanols are a diverse mixture of flavanols, including 135 mg of naturally-occurring (-)-epicatechin (in each 3-capsule serving). While there are other epicatechin supplements in the market today, CocoaVia™ Memory+ is the only supplement made with the  Cocoapro™ cocoa extract which is clinically proven and backed by over a decade of cognitive research on cocoa flavanols.

One of the benefits of the (-)-epicatechin in our proprietary cocoa extract is that it is plant-based. Additionally, we’re one of the few companies that can trace our ingredient back to the farms where our cocoa is produced. Lastly, there are few other plant-based supplements on the market that can guarantee (or will even state) how much (-)-epicatechin is in their product. So ultimately, you may not be able to tell what you’re actually getting in other supplements. We’re proud to offer active ingredients that are plant-based, traceable, and to be able to guarantee our levels of flavanols and (-)-epicatechin thanks to robust testing and quality procedures throughout every step of our process.
