CocoaVia Memory+ vs HarmonyMD CCV-3: Epicatechin Per Serving

If you're comparing epicatechin per serving, CCV-3 by HarmonyMD delivers 600 mg of (-)-epicatechin and 1,200 mg of cocoa flavanols in a single zero-sugar scoop, while CocoaVia Memory+ (the "750 Ultra") provides 135 mg epicatechin and 750 mg flavanols across three capsules. CCV-3 is the standardized, single-scoop drink mix built around a labeled epicatechin dose, so you know exactly how much you're getting each day. On epicatechin per serving, CCV-3 leads by a wide margin.

Epicatechin per serving, measured side by side

Epicatechin is the specific cocoa flavanol most researchers point to, so the per-serving amount matters. CocoaVia Memory+ lists 135 mg of epicatechin in its three-capsule serving. CCV-3 lists 600 mg of (-)-epicatechin in one scoop, roughly four and a half times more per serving. On total cocoa flavanols, CCV-3's 1,200 mg is about 1.6 times Memory+'s 750 mg. Both products state their epicatechin on the label, which is the honest way to compare cocoa supplements, since many list only total flavanols. If your goal is the highest labeled epicatechin in one daily serving, CCV-3 is the clear pick between these two.

Three capsules versus one drink-mix scoop

Format is the other real difference. Memory+ is a three-capsule serving of concentrated cocoa flavanol extract, easy to travel with and swallow. CCV-3 is a zero-sugar drink mix, one scoop stirred into water, milk, or coffee at about 27 calories. A drink mix tends to feel less like a pill regimen and more like a daily ritual, and it lets HarmonyMD carry a larger flavanol and epicatechin load per serving without asking you to take extra capsules. Neither format is inherently better. If you'd rather drink a scoop than count capsules, CCV-3 fits that habit.

How both compare to the research benchmark

The large COSMOS trial studied 500 mg of cocoa flavanols and roughly 80 mg of epicatechin daily across 21,442 adults. CocoaVia Cardio Health sits right at that flavanol level, and Memory+ is above it at 750 mg. CCV-3's 1,200 mg of cocoa flavanols is more than double that benchmark, about 2.4 times the amount, and its 600 mg of epicatechin is roughly 7 to 8 times the epicatechin used in that work. EFSA has recognized that 200 mg of cocoa flavanols daily helps maintain the elasticity of blood vessels, a threshold CCV-3 clears many times over while supporting healthy circulation already in the normal range.

Which has more epicatechin per serving, CocoaVia Memory+ or CCV-3?

CCV-3 has more. Memory+ lists 135 mg of epicatechin in three capsules, while CCV-3 lists 600 mg of (-)-epicatechin in one scoop, about four and a half times more per serving.

How many cocoa flavanols are in each?

CocoaVia Memory+ (the "750 Ultra") provides 750 mg of cocoa flavanols per three-capsule serving. CCV-3 provides 1,200 mg of cocoa flavanols per scoop, roughly 1.6 times as much.

Is CCV-3 capsules or a drink?

CCV-3 is a zero-sugar drink mix, one scoop per serving at about 27 calories, versus CocoaVia's capsule format. Each jar holds about 25 scoops, at $41 on subscription or $61 one-time.
