Why Green Foods? It's hardly a secret that our modern world produces food desperately lacking in minerals, vitamins, fiber, enzymes, carotenoids and antioxidants. Ever since the former Surgeon General, Mr. C. Everett Koop, pro-claimed the significance of poor diet and its relationship to disease, we’ve all been made fully aware of his now famous recommendation. A Minimum of 5 Servings of Vegetables and Fruits Daily! As sound as this advice is, it's far more practical to consume a concentrated and convenient source of plant derived foods.
Green food supplements, when properly formulated, are among the world’s most nutrient-rich and beneficial superfoods. A quality green food supplement is a concentrated storehouse of these important phytonutrients and the minerals, vitamins, fiber, enzymes, carotenoids, and antioxidants that are stripped from modern day food. As Barlean's Greens emerges as the standard in green superfoods, your source of these valuable nutrients is just a spoonful away.
Setting The StandardWe formulated Barlean's Greens with a new vision for green foods in mind. We realized that certain changes were necessary in order to best serve you, the customer, and provide the most effective, nutrient-rich "super-foods" available.
Our research showed us that three important changes were needed to provide the best possible product.
1. Increase the concentration of the nutrient and enzyme-rich green food.
2. Avoid the use of filler and emulsi-fier ingredients like lecithin,* and apple pectin because they add little nutritional value and displace more nutrient-dense ingredients.
3. Make sure each ingredient is supplied in quantities sufficient enough to provide optimal nutritional value.
