JOSEPH S. GRACIA, B.Msc.,MH

 

Hello There, I like to start out by saying...Congratulations!  By reading this article, You have taken your first step to financial freedom! This is Master Herbalist Joseph Gracia and I am about to tell you about the most incredible breakthrough health product I’ve ever come to know. Xocai, The Healthy Chocolate! Now you may be saying…are you crazy? There’s no such thing as healthy chocolate! My Friends, you are in for a surprise…

Let me tell you a little about my background so you can see where I come from and how I came to the life changing decision of becoming a Xocai Distributor. I grew up in the small college town of Whitewater, Wisconsin, moved to Weslaco, Texas at age 11 where I graduated High school and attended the University of Texas Pan American where I found myself confused with no direction of where I wanted to go in life.  My Dad was a general contractor and apartment landlord and advised me to stop wasting my time and to go study building construction.  So after 3 years of spinning my wheels at the university I transfered to Texas State Technical College where I became a Master Carpenter.  I absolutely loved construction and that led me to landing a big supervising position with a national homebuilder. I was on top of the world living my dream and putting all my passion into my work. Everything was great up until about 2006 when the recession started to set in.  It hit me hard when those bonus checks I so relied on stopped coming in and then going from having 50 homes under construction to losing my job.  I searched everywhere for a new job nationwide…there was nothing…only customer service positions . Homebuilders were going bankrupt everywhere.  That slap of reality sent me back home to work with my dad in his Apartment business.  On my spare time I studied my second passion in life of Natural Medicine and earned my Master Herbalist Title.  I started a small holistic practice from home where I discovered,  I was just wasting my time...clients just would not take me seriously.  Most had free medical service so why would they care or want to pay for herbs? Throughout my struggles, I was blessed to find the love of my life, Aline, a beautiful Brazilian psychologist and in a very short time we married.  My Dad found an amazing opportunity in Houston and left me his entire apartment empire he created in South Texas.  At first I was excited about the new independence and authority of my new role in society of being a landlord until it hit me in the face that this was not my life’s purpose! Tenants complaining late at night, broken water heaters, tenants destroying everything right and left, city code enforcement harassing me about this and that…it was complete chaos and one monsterous headache…but it was what put food on the table! I was trapped in this nightmare of a career. Luckily my wife had encouraged me to attend a chamber of commerce meeting that I had become a member of to promote my holistic practice and that’s where I met a group of people who were selling something called Healthy Chocolate. My wife and I tried it, and absolutely loved it and I left the group my business card. The following week, I got a call from one of the guys with the group inviting me to a Free Chocolate Tasting.  I was not to thrilled about going, but  wife nudged me and convinced me we need to start going out more and meeting new people.  We went looking for the address and came across a secured gated community and I told the security guard we came for the chocolate tasting, he gave us the directions and WOW, what a house! We ran the bell and were greeted by the gentleman who invited us. We sat down and were warmly welcomed inside. This house was amazing…and huge!! We were introduced to a small group of people from all walks of life. The owner of the home turned out to be a Doctor of Alternative Medicine and she and I found common ground instantly when she discovered my holistic background. Everyone went around the room introducing themselves enjoying this calm social gathering when in walks  the doctor with a big bowl of spinach and another bowl full of blueberries. She asked us how many of us could eat either one these every day because that is exactly how many Anti Oxidants we need to consume on a daily basis.  None of us answered Yes to her question, and that’s when she pulled out this small piece of chocolate wrapped in a shiny gold foil. Then she ask us again, how many of us could eat 3 of these a day? Well, that sure lit up everyone’s face , but then the question arose, hey, but that’s candy, it’s bad for us. The doctor answered back, no, this is not candy, this is good for you! I thought to myself, this is getting interesting! She then went on to say, How 1 of these healthy chocolates could replace a green drink.  That’s when a light went on in my head. In my experience,  I could never convince my holistic clients to start taking green drinks …those green, grassy, powder mixes that you mix with a glass of water to balance our PH levels which is basically the root to overall health.  I’ve never met anyone, including myself who actually likes the taste of the green drinks…but chocolates…hey, this doctor could really be on to something here.  Everyone Loves Chocolate!

The doctor then gave us each a sample, and this was great, it was the best chocolate I had ever tasted and felt no after taste. She played a DVD for us that showed us that this chocolate is never heated which if it were the cooking processes would kill 75% of all its nutrients. We learned that Xocai uses a Patented Cold process to keep in  the nutrients with Cocao being the highest Anti Oxidant in the world and they use 70% Cacao and mix the Acai Berri in which is the second highest anti oxidant in the world according to the ORAC Score. It is non-alkalized, has no milk fats, no waxes or fillers, no artificial flavors or ingredients, no preservatives, and is caffeine-free! This chocolate is even high in fiber! We Learned the 7 reasons to eat Xocai The Healthy Dark Chocolate, 1. It supports Cardiovascular health, 2. Promotes healthy inflammatory response, 3. Provides antioxidant protection, 4. Helps protect cellular function,5.is Dibetic Friendly! 6. Supports memory and cognitive function, and 7, it can contribute to healthy weight control…hey the founder of Xocai who is diabetic lost a hundred pounds by eating chocolate…this stuff sounded amazing to me! Then came word of the compensation plan…I’ve never been involved in a multi level marketing business, but the things they said sounded very appealing in my desperate time for change.  It was only $289 to sign up, I would get 2 boxes of chocolates a business kit, I would have to remain on auto ship to receive 1 box of chocolate that would cost me $110 plus shipping a month, and I would get my very own e-commerce website where people could order chocolate direct and be able to sign up as distributors all from my website. The website included videos that had all the information about the products and business for anyone to see….and every one that signs up  that I personally sponsor I would get a quick check for $50 not to mention the commission that was involved….this was awesome! I looked at my wife, and told, her, honey, let’s do it! This could be the very break in life we have been looking for? And that was it, that one decision changed our lives forever.  We started going to every chocolate meeting, where we met all sorts of people from every walk of life.  I passed out flyers everywhere, talked to everyone I came across…I was a Chocolateer! It was a shaky first 3 weeks into the business until I finally broke the ice, I signed up 2 new distributors and made the rank of Royal! I was on fire! I teamed up with my new recruits and went to flea markets a passing out flyers like crazy, I even decorated my truck with Xocai lettering!

But I’m not going to sit here and tell you the rest of my story…This is your time…it’s your time to create your own adventure. So if you are living life the way I was, struggling day by day, looking for a way out, praying for an answer…my friend, I present to you… Xocai, The Healthy Chocolate.  Visit my site, Get a pen and write this down… www.josephgracia.com , that’s j o s e p h g r a c I a .com, click the Xocai healthy chocolate banner in the center of my web page and it will take you direct to my Xocai Website where you can download videos about Xocai, order the products and sign up to become a distributor.

Dwayne Bryant's 2006 NFC West Preview…

Bullseye-Sports.com’s Dwayne Bryant gives his thoughts and predictions on the NFL’s NFC West division in 2006. Teams are listed in their predicted order of finish.

1. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS

Offense: The reigning NFC Champions took a major step toward repeating when they re-signed league MVP Shaun Alexander. Alexander set an NFL record by scoring 28 TDs. He also led the league with 1,880 rushing yards on career-high 370 carries. That’s a huge workload. Believe in the Madden cover jinx? Alexander is on this year’s cover. His offensive line took a hit when free-agent Pro-Bowl guard Steve Hutchinson signed with Minnesota. QB Matt Hasselbeck has mastered Mike Holmgren’s offense. Hasselbeck threw 24 TD passes in 2005 and had just 9 INTs while compiling a stellar 98.2 QB rating. Darrell Jackson is Hasselbeck’s favorite target. D-Jack needs to stay healthy this season. Bobby Engram will occupy the slot this season. Jurevicius left for Cleveland, but his replacement, Nate Burleson, should do quite well opposite Jackson. TE Jeramy Stevens finally became a threat last season and should continue to produce in 2006. This offense led the NFL in 2005 with a 28.3 points-per-game average and should be close to that number again in 2006.

Defense: This unit was seventh in the league in 2005, allowing just 16.9 points per game. Their red-zone defense was second in the NFL behind only Chicago. They also led the league with 50 sacks. Ends Grant Wistrom & Bryce Fisher and tackles Chartric Darby & Rocky Bernard give Seattle a solid front four. Perhaps the biggest surprise in 2005 was the play of the LB corps, led by rookies Lofa Tatupu and Leroy Hill. Adding Julian Peterson to the fold should give the ‘Hawks one of the best front sevens in the league. The secondary is also solid with Michael Boulware and Ken Hamlin, who is returning from a head injury.

Special Teams: The return game needs improvement. Josh Scobey averaged just 22.5 yards on kickoff returns. Kicker Josh Brown didn’t get much FG practice last season thanks to Seattle’s league-high 57 TDs. He connected on only 18 of his 25 FG tries. Look for his numbers to up slightly, especially his success rate.

Prediction: The offense should produce again, provided Hutchinson’s replacement is adequate and Alexander avoids the Madden cover jinx. Super Bowl losers usually don’t fare too well the following season, but Seattle is clearly the class of this division and should waltz into the playoffs. Another Super Bowl run is certainly not out of the question.

2. ARIZONA CARDINALS

Offense: One of the biggest offseason moves was RB Edgerrin James coming over from the Colts. With receivers Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald needing much defensive attention, plus the addition of rookie TE Leonard Pope as another receiving option, “Edge” shouldn’t see too many eight-man fronts. James won’t benefit from the line he had in Indy, but he should still find some decent running room here. He’s also a solid receiver, which gives QB Kurt Warner yet another weapon and a great safety valve when the pressure comes – and it will. Opponents know this line can be had and they also know Warner’s durability issues. However, the Cards drafted QB Matt Leinart (USC), who was the most NFL-ready signal caller in the draft. He could pressed into service sooner rather than later. This should be one of the NFL’s most explosive offenses in 2006.

Defense: The good news is, Arizona ranked eighth in the league in yards allowed in 2005. The bad news is, they also ranked 26th in the league in points allowed. The biggest improvement came from the run defense, which jumped from 27th in 2004 to tenth in 2005. If the Cards hope to contend for a playoff spot, they’ll need to improve their red-zone defense in a big way. This unit missed its leading sack-master, DE Bertrand Berry, for half the season. Berry registered six sacks in the first eight games of the season before sustaining a season-ending knee injury. Karlos Dansby led the LB group with two INT-return TDs. CB Antrel Roll missed 11 games in his 2005 rookie campaign. Roll has shutdown-corner potential, which should become more evident this season. Safety Adrian Wilson provides the secondary with big-play ability.

Special Teams: Neil Rackers had a monster 2005 season, hitting an amazing 40 of 42 FG attempts. Reggie Swinton handled punt and kickoff-return duties in 2005 with minimal results.

Prediction: This team is full of promise. Improvement is inevitable with a proven winner like Dennis Green at the controls. The offensive line is still a problem and the defense needs to show some improvement, too. An 8-8 season sounds about right for this bunch. The playoffs will have to wait at least another year.

3. ST. LOUIS RAMS

Offense: Gone is Mike Martz’s pass-happy attack. Enter new coach Scott Linehan, who’ll place more emphasis on the running game. That means an increased workload for stud RB Steven Jackson. Jackson is young, strong, quick and has great hands. Linehan knows he has talent in the passing game and he’ll use that talent to make for a more balanced offense than we’re used to seeing from the Rams. QB Marc Bugler, who only played in eight games in 2005, must stay healthy if this team has any chance to succeed. The Rams have three solid WRs in star Torry Holt, the aging but still-effective Isaac Bruce and emerging playmaker Kevin Curtis. Curtis had 60 catches and 6 TDs last season and could surpass Bruce on the depth chart. The Rams picked TEs Joe Klopfenstein and Dominique Byrd on Day One of the draft, which can only mean the TE will become more involved in Linehan’s system.

Defense: Pathetic. Horrible. Just plain awful. Say it however you’d like, this unit was an absolute disaster in 2005. They ranked 30th in the NFL in yards allowed and 31st in points allowed. They lacked playmakers and the 2006 version will be without SS Adam Archuleta, who fled to Washington. The good news is – there’s nowhere to go but up. They brought in DT La’Roi Glover from Dallas. Glover will shine in the 4-3 scheme and help to not only stop the run, but also rush the passer. That’ll help the rest of the line, including DE Leonard Little, the team’s top pass rusher. One problem this group has is the absence of another established DE to take the double teams away from Little. They’ve added LB Will Witherspoon from Carolina. He gives the LB corps an upgrade. Archuleta’s vacancy is filled by veteran Corey Chavous. The Rams took CB Tye Hill with their first-round draft pick. He’ll compete for a starting job in a secondary that still has some holes to fill.

Special Teams: The numbers say it all: 23rd in kickoff returns, 29th in punt returns, 29th in punt coverage and 30th in kickoff coverage. Obviously, major improvement is needed. The only special-teams bright spot was kicker Jeff Wilkins, who connected on 27 of 31 FG tries.

Prediction: New coaches. New scheme. These things take time to run efficiently. And too many defensive holes won’t help either. They’ll challenge Arizona for second in the division, but I see them falling short. 7-9 looks about right.

4. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS

Offense: QBs go through growing pains their first couple of seasons in the league, but Alex Smith’s rookie season couldn’t have gone much worse. Smith had a QB rating of 40.8, but he’s not the only one to blame. The 49ers had little-to-no weapons for Smith. They drafted TE Vernon Davis, who has the potential to have an immediate impact. They still have TE Eric Johnson, which could make two-TE sets very interesting. They brought in Antonio Bryant, a talented but moody WR. He looks like the top WR on the team, which is definitely not good. The Niners also brought in guard Larry Allen to bolster the o-line, which should bode well for RBs Kevan Barlow and Frank Gore. Barlow has averaged just 3.4 and 3.3 yards per carry over the last two seasons. His poor play paved the way for Gore, who tallied 608 yards on a solid 4.8 yards per carry. Based on those numbers, Gore appears to be the front-runner for the starter’s job, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Barlow get significant playing time as well.

Defense: Mike Nolan switched this team to the 3-4 defense last season, mostly because he had two talented OLBs in Julian Peterson and Andre Carter. They’re both gone – Carter to Washington and Peterson to Seattle. Having two new starters at OLB in this scheme will be tough. The secondary has holes, too, but welcomes back CB Mike Rumph from a foot injury. This unit ranked 30th in points allowed and 32nd (or last) in yards allowed in 2005. It looks like it’ll be another long season for this defense in 2006.

Special Teams: Otis Amey’s 75-yard punt-return TD was the lone bright spot on what was a poor return unit. Kicker Joe Nedney set a franchise record for FG percentage. Nedney made 26 of his 28 FG tries for a stellar 92.86% success rate.

Prediction: New offensive coordinator Norv Turner has a history of success with his RBs. 49ers fans better hope that continues because that defense cannot be allowed to stay on the field too long. More growing pains for Smith combined with a lack of weapons and a porous defense equals another long season in San Francisco. Anything better than 4-12 will surprise me.

FINAL THOUGHTS: The Seahawks, barring major injuries, will walk away with the division crown once again. Arizona is closing the gap and could sneak into a playoff spot with a little luck. The Rams need to further improve their defense before they can get back into the playoff picture. And the 49ers, with a young QB and porous defense, are a few years away from even sniffing a postseason berth.
