Allulose is a sweetening agent found naturally in jackfruit, figs, and raisins, with no bitterness or unpleasant aftertaste. With a chemical structure similar to other sugars, it's classified as a "rare sugar" because our bodies don't metabolize it the same way.
With allulose, you'll never feel like you're missing out. The only thing missing are the seismic spikes and valleys in your blood sugar and all the bodily chaos and harm resulting from over-consuming sugar.
Allulose is used as the exclusive sweetener in all Fx Chocolate products. Learn more about allulose here.Patented ingredient name: NooGandha®

Bamboo is one of the richest natural sources of silica, a little-known compound that plays an essential role in the health of hair, skin & nails.*
Silica helps promote collagen production and the strength of the bonds between collagen molecules in connective tissue.* Think of silica as collagen’s biggest supporter. And just like collagen, the amount of silica in our bodies, unfortunately, can decrease as we age. Because of this, getting silica through your diet (or chocolate) is a great way to support collagen production and skin integrity and elasticity.*
Fx Radiant contains 75 mg of bamboo shoot extract silica for hair, nail, and skin support.*Benefits
