Here are descriptions of some of the unique ingredients that make this product superior:

SDG Flax Lignans

Lignans are a group of phytonutrients found in seeds and grains. Flaxseed is known for being the plant containing the highest concentration of Lignans known as SDG (secoisolariciresinol diglucoside). Most of the lignans in flax seed are located in the hull that encases the seed.

Our product contains only pure organic flax hulls, which have been mechanically separated from the flax seed. The resulting concentrate contains up to 70 times the amount of SDG lignans per gram as compared to the traditional ground up seed.

Studies have shown these SDG lignans to be helpful for various health conditions, such as prostate cancer, skin cancer, diabetes, lupus and more. Being mostly phytoestrogens, SDG lignans have also been reported to be effective in helping with some female problems.*

Concentrace^TM Ionic Minerals

Ionic minerals are already in a form that the body recognizes and understands so they can be easily assimilated through the selectively permeable cell membranes. Your body requires nearly two thirds of all the elements known in order to maintain health. Keeping these minerals in balance is vital, and it is a challenge.

It is estimated that 90% of Americans suffer a mineral deficiency or imbalance due to the nutritionally deficient foods from modern mass agriculture, food processing and marketing methods. Daily activities make a continual ingestion of minerals important.

Chemical and electrical processes are occurring within your body at every moment. These processes can only function correctly if the proper balance of minerals is continually being supplied to your system. Iron for your blood, sulfur for your muscles, calcium for your bones, and an aggregation of may other elements in balanced trace amounts to ensure the proper function of your body.

Superior Antioxidant Value

The word ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. The ORAC analysis of a given product or food measures the ability of the item to protect against free radical attack -- its ability to act as an Antioxidant. Certain fruits and vegetables with an ORAC value higher than others, are able to better protect the body from free radical damage to the cells.

Harm from free radicals contributes greatly to the process of aging and many diseases and other health problems. Studies suggest that foods with a higher ORAC value may be helpful in protecting our bodies from premature aging and disease. Evidence suggests that daily antioxidant intake be increased to between 3,000 to 5,000 ORAC units or more to have a significant beneficial impact on the blood and other tissues.

The ORAC value of various foods can differ greatly. One serving of mixed fruits and vegetables (about 4 oz) may have an ORAC value of 300 per serving. While other foods like prunes and blueberries may have an ORAC value over 1000 per serving.

The 8000 ORAC value of Delicious GREENS 8000^TM can help insure that your body gets the benefits of antioxidants that it really needs.

Probiotics

Delicious GREENS 8000^TM includes a culture of friendly intestinal flora, also called "probiotics", which improve digestive and intestinal functions, support the immune system, aid detoxification, and enhance metabolism and overall energy.

Taking in probiotics helps maintain a good balance between the harmful and beneficial microbes in the gut. Other possible health benefits include immune system stimulation, treatment of acute diarrhea and other GI disorders and improved lactose digestion. Many researchers believe that healthy probiotics assist the body in repair and recovery, and improve longevity.

These are especially needed during and after antibiotic treatment or when traveling abroad where the body encounters different types of bacteria than it is used to.

Descriptions Of Other Ingredients

Barley : Barley seems to improve several cardiovascular risk factors. For example, in a study of male participants, researchers found increasing whole grain foods in a healthy diet could reduce high blood pressure.

Chlorella: In Japan, interest in chlorella has focused largely on its detoxifying properties -- its ability to neutralize or remove poisonous substances from the body. Numerous research projects in the USA and Europe also indicate that chlorella can aid the body in the breakdown of persistent hydrocarbon and metallic toxins such as DDT, PCB, mercury, cadmium and lead, while strengthening the immune system response.

Spirulina : This tiny aquatic plant offers 60% all-vegetable protein, essential vitamins and phyto-nutrients such as the antioxidant pigments beta carotene, chlorophyll and phycocyanin, the rare essential fatty acid GLA, sulfolipids, glycolipids and polysaccharides.

Alfalfa : Alfalfa may help reduce blood sugar and cholesterol levels which can benefit heart health. Alfalfa herbal supplements have laxative and diuretic qualities as well as helping to improve appetite. Alfalfa assists with the treatment of urinary tract infections, and kidney, bladder and prostrate disorders. Alfalfa can relieve pain associated with arthritis and bursitis due to its anti-inflammatory properties. Alfalfa may be helpful with menopausal side effects by reducing hot flashes. In addition, alfalfa aids in increased energy levels due to its high nutritive value.

Ionic Trace Minerals : Your body needs minerals found in large quantities, such as magnesium. It also needs many trace minerals, such as chromium, zinc and selenium. Medical science has proven beyond any doubt that the body can absorb essential minerals in the ionic form far more rapidly than in colloidal, or even chelated form.

Carrot juice : Carrot juice has anti-carcinogen properties. Thus, it may help prevent cancer. The Beta carotene found in carrots is an anti-oxidant, and thus it prevents cell degeneration, slowing down the aging process.

Broccoli Juice : Contains a chemical called sulforaphane that kills helicobacter pylori. H. Pylori is the bacteria responsible for peptic ulcers and many gastric cancers, and the risk can be greatly reduced by regular consumption of broccoli juice.

Cauliflower Juice : Investigating their protective effects of its chemical makeup, scientists at the University of Urbino claim to have discovered the mechanism of action by which Brassica oleracea (cauliflower) may offer protection against breast cancer.

Spinach Juice : A carotenoid found in spinach fights human prostate cancer in two different ways, according to research published in the Journal of Nutrition. The carotenoid, called neoxanthin, not only induces prostate cancer cells to self-destruct, but is converted in the intestines into additional compounds, called neochromes, which put prostate cancer cells into a state of stasis, thus preventing their replication.

Parsley Juice : Parsley's volatile oils—particularly myristicin—have been shown to inhibit tumor formation in animal studies, and particularly, tumor formation in the lungs. Myristicin has also been shown to activate the enzyme glutathione-S-transferase, which helps attach the molecule glutathione to oxidized molecules that would otherwise do damage in the body.

Oat Beta-Glucan : Oat Beta-Glucan is the active ingredient in oat soluble fiber, recognized by the United States FDA as an effective way to lower blood cholesterol.

Apple Fiber Pectin : As a dietary fiber, apple pectin is helpful in maintaining good digestive health. Researchers at the University of California, Davis, found that apple pectin also acts as an antioxidant against the damaging portion of cholesterol in the blood stream.

Sprouted Barley Malt : Malted barley has a high complement of enzymes for converting its starch supply into simple sugars; it also contains protein, which is needed for yeast nutrition. Barley malt is also used medicinally as a bulking agent to promote bowel regularity.

Concord Grape Powder : According to results from a preliminary study presented at Experimental Biology April 14, 2003 in San Diego, CA “Men with elevated blood pressure who drank Concord grape juice for twelve weeks experienced a significant drop in both their systolic and diastolic blood pressures”.

Acerola Cherry : Acerola has been studied and found to be a powerful antioxidant demonstrating anti-cancer potential. Acerola contains polyphenols.

Milk Thistle (Silymarin) : Milk Thistle (Silymarin) has antioxidant properties. Milk Thistle also contains anti-inflammatory effects, which keeps liver cells from swelling in response to injury, and it seems to encourage liver cell growth. By changing the outside layer of liver cells, it prevents certain toxins from getting into liver cells.

Red Beet Root : Red Beet Root has properties to clean the kidneys and gall bladder. Being rich in alkaline elements, potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron, is useful in combating acidosis. Red Beet Root is also beneficial in the treatment of anemia, digestive problems, as well as circulatory and skin disorders.

Aloe Vera : Aloe Vera contains numerous vitamins and minerals, enzymes, amino acids, natural sugars and agents which may be anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial.

Pomegranate: Preliminary evidence suggests that pomegranate may reduce cholesterol. Israeli researchers, published a small clinical study in June 2004 in Clinical Nutrition, suggested that drinking a glass of pomegranate juice a day for one year reduced blood pressure (particularly systolic pressure) and slowed down LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) oxidation.

Turmeric Rhizome: It purifies the blood, aids digestion of protein, promotes proper metabolism in the body, correcting both, excess and deficiencies. It is used in treatment for fever, mild stomach upset, infection, arthritis, dysentery, jaundice and other liver problems.

Atlantic Kelp : Kelp has a very high natural iodine content, which has a normalizing effect on the thyroid gland. Due to the vitamin and mineral contents of Atlantic Kelp it may help scalp and hair health. Poor digestion, flatulence and obstinate constipation, have been helped with Kelp supplementation.

Green Tea Extract: In 1994 the Journal of the National Cancer Institute published the results of an epidemiological study indicating that drinking green tea reduced the risk of esophageal cancer in Chinese men and women by nearly sixty percent. University of Purdue researchers recently concluded that a compound in green tea inhibits the growth of cancer cells. There is also research indicating that drinking green tea lowers total cholesterol levels, as well as improving the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol.

Quercetin : Quercetin is a powerful anti-oxidant. It is also a natural anti-histamine, and anti-inflammatory. Research shows that quercetin may help to prevent cancer, especially prostate cancer.

Trans Resveratrol: It promotes cardiovascular health through its antioxidant action and its ability to promote healthy platelet function and maintain healthy arachidonic acid metabolism.

Red Wine Extract : A study by the Harvard Medical School and the National Institute of Aging showed that heavy doses of red-wine extract lowers the rate of diabetes, liver problems and other fat-related ill effects in obese mice. Fat-related deaths dropped 31 percent for obese mice on the supplement, compared with untreated obese mice, and the treated mice also lived long after they should have, the study said.

Grape seed Extract : Grape seed has been suggested for many uses, based on tradition or on scientific theories. However, these uses have not been thoroughly studied in humans, and there is limited scientific evidence about safety or effectiveness. Some of these suggested uses are for conditions that are potentially serious and even life-threatening.

Blueberry Extract : Blueberries are a particularly rich source of antioxidants called anthocyanins (also contained in apples, grapes, blackberries, radishes, and red cabbage). Several studies suggest anthocyanins discourage blood clots from forming, warding off heart attacks. They also appear to improve night vision and to slow macular degeneration by strengthening tiny blood vessels in the back of the eye.

Digestive Enzymes: A shortage of enzymes in the body will influence the health of the entire body. Symptoms of deficiency may include stomach gas, indigestion, bloating, heartburn and flatulence. Enzymes decrease or eliminate indigestion, gas, bloating and reflux. They also increase the nutrients you absorb from your diet to improve overall nutrition.

With supplemental enzymes you can address the underlying cause of digestive complaints rather than temporarily masking the symptoms. Enzymes ease the stress on digestive organs, especially the pancreas, by reducing their workload. Enhance the body's digestive efficiency, reduce fatigue and increase your energy with enzymes. Taking enzymes provides more energy for the body to focus on functions like strengthening the immune system and regenerating cells and tissues, improving general health and the quality of life.

Lecithin: Phosphatidyl choline is a brain and nerve nutrient. It acts to protect the insulating and protective sheaths that surround the brain, spine, and thousands of miles of nerves. Phosphatidyl choline helps reduce high cholesterol levels by enhancing the metabolism of cholesterol in the digestive system and aiding its transport through the circulatory system. It acts as an emulsifier to break down the fats and cholesterol into tiny particles and holds them in suspension, preventing them from sticking to blood platelets or arterial walls.
