Who needs Beyond Greens?

Beyond Greens blends quickly and easily, so it's great for people on the run who need an instant, nutritious meal or a quick pick-me-up-snack. It's also ideal for elderly people or anyone in a compromised state of health. Beyond Greens makes it easy and convenient for anyone to achieve a well balanced diet. It's also invaluable for those days when it's impossible to eat at least five generous portions of vegetables.

What's so special about Beyond Greens?

Beyond Greens gives you premium greens from organically grown grasses, plus spirulina, chlorella, broccoli, parsley and kale. These greens are rich in detoxifying chlorophyll, and provide naturally balanced vitamins, minerals and protein to keep you in top form. For example, barley grass contains diverse nutrients that include calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, B-vitamins, carotene and vitamins C and E. Beyond Greens also contains energizers, like ginseng and bee pollen, that help fight the fatigue associated with life's hectic pace.

What about the fats?

A key factor that sets Beyond Greens apart is its high amount of essential fatty acids (EFAs). Each tablespoon provides over 1,000mg of high quality oil from the same balanced mixture of flax, sunflower and sesame seeds as is used in Udo's Choice Ultimate Oil Blend.

These good oils (EFAs) are required by every cell of the body for proper development, optimal function and structural renewal. Research shows that EFAs benefit inflammation, autoimmune diseases, skin conditions, high blood pressure, cholesterol levels and neural functions as well as brain function, hormonal health, child development, bone strength and insulin function. Furthermore, EFAs increase fat metabolism, decrease fat production and storage and are a source of long-lasting energy, strength and endurance.

Deep Cleansing Fibre

Beyond Greens supplies soluble fibre, which carries cholesterol out of the body and feeds friendly intestinal bacteria, as well as insoluble fibre, which adds needed bulk to assist regular elimination. These fibres help reduce the risk of developing disease, stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce cravings. The average person consumes only about ten grams of fibre a day, which is less than half of the recommended daily amount.

Without adequate fibre in the diet, food takes much longer to pass through the digestive tract. This stagnating food builds up 'sludge' that clings to the walls of the entire intestinal tract. This sludge prevents proper absorption of nutrients which are needed for health and energy. The fibre in Beyond Greens loosens this residue and gently scrubs the intestinal lining. Once clean, better absorption of vitamins and other nutrients can take place. Three servings of Beyond Greens through the day will add five grams of fibre to the diet.

Protection against disease and premature ageing

Beyond Greens also contains antioxidant-rich whole food concentrates and phytonutrients, such as greens, carrots, soy sprouts, kale, burdock root, bilberry, hawthorn and kelp, as well as standardized Grape Seed Extract and Ginkgo Biloba. Increasingly, scientific studies are confirming that antioxidants are one of the most powerful, natural disease fighters.

Why do we need 'greens'?

Greens are our most important foods because they provide us with the essential components of health. They are our foods, as well as our medicines. Where green plants cannot grow, we cannot live. Greens:
Have been making the oxygen we need to breathe for about 3 billion years (blue-green algae were the first photosynthesizers)
Provide us with water and hold water in the soil
Dissolve and then absorb the minerals from rocks and make them useable for us
Manufacture the vitamins that are essential to our life
Manufacture amino acids and proteins, as well as essential fatty acids and fats
Make sugars and starches, which are fuel for our cells
Provide fibre and, if raw, provide digestive enzymes as well as probiotics
Are our greatest source of antioxidants
Provide phytonutrients, nature's medicines
Alkalinize our body into a healthier state
Feed grazing animals, such as cows and sheep

Greens improve health and can slow, prevent or reverse degenerative diseases. Natural products made from plants are inexpensive and safe (largely without adverse side effects), compared to conventional, synthetic medicines. Dried greens keep well and, while not quite as good as fresh greens, still contain most of the nutrients we need. Dried greens are convenient - they can be carried in a suitcase while travelling, in a briefcase, backpack, or handbag.

Digestive enzymes

Digestive enzymes help to break down the foods we eat into basic building blocks that our body then absorbs and reassembles to build cells, tissues, organs, glands and entire body systems. They have been included in Beyond Greens to ensure the proper breakdown and therefore optimum absorption of the full-spectrum of essential and healing compounds in this formula.

The combination of fibre, detoxifying greens and digestive enzymes makes Beyond Greens an effective deep cleansing formula that rejuvenates the gastro-intestinal system, and provides day-to-day digestive support to main optimal nutrient absorption.

For thousands of years, herbs have been used to help maintain many aspects of health and wellness. Today, research and technology are bringing herbalism into the modern age – with improved extraction, standardization, and farming methods. Clinical studies are beginning to validate herbal therapies, so even some in the medical community are starting to accept them.

Many of today’s medicines were originally derived from botanicals. Aspirin once came from the white willow tree, quinine from the bark of the cinchona tree, and digitalis from foxglove. Herbs are still the basis for Chinese medicine and are important constituents of many European natural remedies. As Hippocrates said, “Let they food by thy medicine, thy medicine be thy food”.

Some of the herbs available on this site are wild-crafted – grown in the wild – while others are meticulously cultivated on herb farms.
