Beet Juice Powder, Organic
Beets, (Beta Vulgaris) has blood fat inhibiting and liver cell regeneration properties. Beets have high iron, potassium and magnesium content, soluble and insoluble fiber, sugar stabilizing effects, and essential for liver function and regeneration. The betalains were introduced as characteristic pigments of beetroot. Recent research has identified the betalains as being dietary antioxidants. Folate (folic acid) occurs in higher levels in beetroot than in most other vegetables. It has a different chemical structure and is more widely distributed than the betalain pigments.
Carrot Juice Powder
Carrots, Carotenes, including alpha, beta and many other carotenoids are the orange pigments in the root - prolific sources of provitamin A. This is a truly versatile vegetable and an excellent source of vitamins B and C as well as calcium pectate, an extraordinary pectin fiber that has been found to have cholesterol-lowering properties. Carotenoids, including beta-carotene, are healing for the mucous membranes irritated by allergies or colds and good for the liver. Carrots also have B vitamins and the calming mineral, calcium. Carrots are sensitive to chemicals in soil.
Chlorella - Cracked Cell
Chlorella, Chlorella pyrenoidosa and other Chlorella spp. [Phylum: Cyanophyta], is a nutrient-dense unicellular fresh water green alga rich in proteins (60%), vitamins, and minerals that is used as a source of food and beneficial phytochemicals. Chlorella has been on the earth since the Precambrian period: over 2.5 billion years. In the 1960s, Japanese scientists turned their attention to chlorella as a promoter of good health. Research has shown that Chlorella has strong detoxification, immunostimulant and wound healing properties and prevents damage to the body from toxic chemicals. Chlorella gets its name from the high amount of chlorophyll it possesses. Chlorella contains more chlorophyl per gram than any other plant. Chlorophyl is one of the greatest food substances for cleansing the bowel and other elimination systems, such as the liver and the blood. Chlorella is alkaline and helps balance your body's pH. Chlorella is one of the most scientifically researched foods in history.
Spirulina Powder
Spirulina, Spirulina pratensis and other Spirulina spp. [Phylum: Cyanophyta], is a nutrient-dense cyanobacteria used as a food and source of beneficial phytochemicals. Spirulina has significant amounts of protein, essential amino acids, essential fatty acids, chlorophyll, carotenoids including beta-carotene, vitamins, minerals, unique pigments and polysaccharides. Spirulina also has probiotic compounds that enhance health through preserving resident intestinal microflora, especially lactic acid bacilli and bifidobacteria, and decreasing the level of Candida albicans. Researchers also found that Spirulina produces an immunostimulating effect by enhancing the resistance of humans, mammals, chickens and fish to infections by stimulating the production of antibodies, cytokines, macrophages, T and B cells. Liver-protective properties of Spirulina are attributed to its antiinflammatory, antioxidant, membrane-stabilizing, and immunocorrecting actions.
Blueberry Powder
Blueberry: The health benefits of Blueberries closely resemble those of Bilberries. The main difference between Blueberries and Bilberries is their Anthocyanidins content - Bilberries contain approximately 246 mg of Anthocyanidins per 100 grams; Blueberries contain approximately 123 mg of Anthocyanidins per 100 grams.
Green Tea Catechins - 60%
Green Tea Extract: Green Tea is the unoxidized form of Tea (leaf) widely consumed in Asia as a beverage. Green Tea (in contrast to Black Tea) has been shown to possess a high level of therapeutic activity. Milk prevents the therapeutic effects of the Tea Polyphenols in Green Tea from occurring (Milk binds to and prevents the absorption of Tea Polyphenols by the Digestive System) - i.e. it is useless to consume "white" Tea for therapeutic purposes. The highly beneficial Tea Polyphenol named Epigallo-Catechin-Gallate (EGCG) is present only in Green Tea. EGCG is a type of Catechin and type of Tannin - its molecular structure includes Catechin and Gallic Acid. EGCG is a potent antioxidant, it helps to inhibit the ability of the Ultra-Violet Radiation component of Sunlight to damage the Skin and helps in preventing abnormal Blood Clotting
Orange Juice Powder
Orange, added as a natural flavor, is not acidic but actually leaves an alkaline residue. Oranges are also high in Citrus Bioflavonoids.
Pineapple Juice Powder
Pineapple, Bromelain is a constituent of Pineapple - it is present in both the Stem (known as Stem Bromelain) and Fruit (known as Fruit Bromelain) of the Pineapple. All commercially-available Bromelain is Stem Bromelain. Bromelain is a dietary Proteolytic Enzyme. More precisely, it is not one isolated compound, but a general term for a family of closely-related Sulfhydryl-containing Proteolytic Enzymes. It also contains a type of Peroxidase enzyme, and Acid Phosphatase enzyme, several Protease Inhibitors and Calcium. Much of the physiological activity of Bromelain occurs as a result of multiple factors, including (but not exclusively) its proteolytic enzyme function.
Supplemental or dietary Bromelain is effectively absorbed through the Gastrointestinal Tract when consumed orally - in animal experiments 40% of Bromelain was absorbed unchanged from the Intestines. Bromelain is important as an anti-inflammatory enzyme and is helpful in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. As a digestive enzyme, which aids the pancreas to secrete enzymes.
Red Raspberry Powder
Raspberry: Clinical research indicates that raspberries are the highest known source of ellagic acid. Ellagic Acid stimulates the endogenous manufacture of Glutathione* and helps to recycle Glutathione. Ellagic Acid forms adducts with the body's endogenous Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA), thereby blocking binding sites on the DNA of Cells that could otherwise be occupied by carcinogens or mutagens.
*Glutathione facilitates the absorption of essential Minerals and activates enzymes that repair damaged Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA). It recycles Dehydroascorbic Acid back to Vitamin C and can recycle Tocopheryl Quinone (oxidized Vitamin E) back to fresh Vitamin E.
Spearmint
Spearmint is a type of mint herb that has been used to stimulate the appetite, improve the health of the digestive tract, help alleviate flatulence, nausea and hiccups.
Apple Fiber
Apples have been found to improve the function of the digestive system. They help block the conversion of Benzopyrene to carcinogens within the body. And are know to reduce total serum cholesterol levels (due to the pectin and other constituents of apples) and increase serum HDL Cholesterol and lower serum LDL Cholesterol and inhibit the oxidation of LDL Cholesterol.
Apple Pectin
Pectins are soluble polysaccharides composed primarily of uronic acids such as galacturonic acid. They are a form of soluble fiber. Dietary Fiber is a generic term for all of the components of plant cell walls. Most dietary fibers are polysaccharide carbohydrates. The two types of non-carbohydrate dietary fiber are lignans and lignin. Dietary fiber may increase the proliferation of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. Dietary Fiber functions as a nutrient for the Beneficial Bacteria that reside in the gastrointestinal tract. Pectins differ in structure according to the food from which they are derived. Apple Pectin taken in larger amount (20 grams daily) help to normalize blood sugar levels in diabetes mellitus type 2 patients. It has also been found to help lower total serum Cholesterol levels up to 25%
Lecithin Powder - 99% oil free
Lecithin is also known as Phosphatidylcholine which helps to maintain the elasticity of blood vessels, is essential for the formation , structural and functional integrity of cell. Supplemental lecithin has been found to enhance the function of cell membranes throughout the body and comprises approximately 65% of most cell membranes. It helps to prevent and treat age-associated memory impairment (AAMI). It facilitates the production of acetylcholine in the brain and adrenal glands (due to the Phosphatidylcholine component of lecithin supplying Choline that is essential to the production of Acetylcholine. Acetylcholine ensures that mucous membranes remain lubricated and moist and is required for optimal muscle tone. Phosphatidylcholine has been found to help control the transfer of endogenous chemicals into skin cells and improves the visual appearance of dull skin. Phosphatidylcholine is the constituent of bile that facilitates the emulsification of dietary and has been found to enhance the absorption of Vitamin A.
