KETO CHOK

Live Better products can also be taken during pregnancy, except for Pure Biltong and Kaminwurz, as they are cured.
Pure Jerky is cooked, not raw meat, so there's no problem.

Better Mayo is made with pasteurized egg yolk. The yolk is pasteurized, undergoing a controlled heat treatment at 64°C for 8 minutes and then refrigerated at +2°C. Under proper storage conditions and shelf-life, the product is generally suitable for consumption during pregnancy. Unless otherwise indicated by a medical professional and in accordance with the storage instructions on the label.

The only caution is Chokkino because it contains caffeine
A cup of Chokkino espresso contains only 11 mg of caffeine (an espresso coffee contains 80 mg)
EFSA's recommended daily limit of caffeine for pregnant women is 200 mg
Caffeine is naturally present in cocoa, and therefore also in chocolate. However, chocolate contains less caffeine than cocoa powder.
Cocoa powder contains less cocoa butter and therefore the caffeine is "concentrated"

All Live Better products can be taken while breastfeeding.

Consult your doctor for special needs

Because when it is hot, the temperature in courier cars is too high and would melt the chocolate.

There are large companies that process cocoa beans and produce buttons (about 3 cm in diameter) from cocoa mass. Most artisan chocolatiers make chocolate from these. From bean to bar literally means "from bean to bar" meaning the chocolatier buys the beans, roasts them, and uses them to make chocolate. If you would like to find out how chocolate is made "from bean to bar" at this link Armin of Karuna Chocolate shows us the whole process. Another very good "from bean to bar" chocolatier is my friend Marco Colzani who has a beautiful factory outlet in Carate Brianza, where he also sells his amazing juices and jams.

There are cocoa varieties with a special fruity and floral flavor profile that are called "fino de aroma." They are grown on small farms that strive for excellence. Most cocoa today is grown intensively, which results in low quality production. Currently only 8% of the world's production is fino de aroma cacao. With the market paying more and more attention to the quality of raw materials, companies growing high quality raw materials are increasing.

The date shown on NON-fresh products is not the expiration date, but the TMC.

TMC means Minimum Storage Term and is NOT an expiration date. The product is always perfectly edible after this date. When you read “best before...” on a product, it means it is not an expiration date but the TMC minimum shelf life.

PLEASE NOTE: Our products are very stable because they are in powdered form and contain mainly saturated fats, which are naturally very stable. We have tested many of them even more than one year past their TMC date, and they were still in perfect condition, including coconut milk, cocoa powder, erythritol, and arrowroot.

How to tell if a product is still good? Very simple!
Just take a look: are there any signs of mold, insects, or anything unusual?
Smell: smell?
If the answers to these two questions are no, the product is still good.

Think about this: the expiration date was invented 50 years ago. Humankind has existed for 2.5 million years. Your senses are perfectly capable of recognizing a product gone bad. Trust us!

10% of European food waste is caused by the misinterpretation of this date. Tell your friends about this important distinction between TMC and expiration date. Awareness will save the world.
