Nutrient-rich young alfalfa grass contains over 300 identified nutrients and phytonutrients. It is high in fiber and protein, and a rich source of vitamins and minerals, including magnesium potassium, iron and calcium. Alfalfa contains chlorophyll and many bioactive compounds like saponins, phytoestrogens, coumarins, alkaloids, phytosterols, terpenes, coumestrol, phenolics, flavonoids, isoflavonoids and carotenoids (provitamin A), as well enzymes, including amylase, invertase and pectinase.*
Nutrient-dense baobab fruits are rich in prebiotic dietary fiber (including pectin), potassium and antioxidant phytonutrients (phenolics and bioflavonoids), high in vitamin C, calcium and magnesium, and contain a wide variety of vitamins and minerals. The bioflavonoids present in the fruits assist with the absorption of vitamin C in the body.
Young green barley grass is rich in chlorophyll, contains an array of flavonoids, the major ones being the flavones C-glycosides, saponarin and lutonarin, as well as containing beta-sitosterol and beta-carotene. It is low in fat, high in dietary fiber, especially insoluble fiber, and is a good source of protein. Barley grass also contains a wide array of vitamins and minerals as well as many beneficial enzymes, being especially high in the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD).
Densely nutritious, hemp seeds are rich in omega-6 and omega-3 essential fatty acids at a healthy ratio of 3:1. Gamma linolenic acid (GLA) is an especially beneficial form of omega-6 found in the seeds. They also contain high-quality easily digestible protein, comprising 20 amino acids, including branched-chain amino acids and the nine essential amino acids. Hemp seeds are a good source of both soluble and insoluble dietary fiber, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, copper and vitamins E, K and some B vitamins. Additionally, the seeds are a good source of phytosterols and a source of some phenolic and polyphenolic compounds.
Lucuma fruit is an excellent source of carbohydrates, in particular starches, and fiber, especially insoluble fiber. It is a rich source of phytochemicals, especially the flavanol phenolics such as catechin and epicatechin and the carotenoids beta-carotene and xanthophylls. Lucuma is a good source of potassium, zinc, calcium, magnesium, vitamins B1 and B3 and contains a variety of other vitamins and minerals
NutraGrass™ is a concentrated raw juice powder made from freshly-harvested organic young wheatgrass sprouts.
Organically grown and harvested at the peak of its nutritional potency, the wheatgrass used in NutraGrass™ is gently dried by air stream at very low temperatures to preserve the bright colors, flavors and nutrients found naturally in the freshest wheatgrass juice.
Wheatgrass is rich in chlorophyll, protein, calcium, iron, potassium, magnesium, zinc and vitamin A, and contains many other vitamins and minerals. It also contains metabolic enzymes, including superoxide dismutase and cytochrome oxidase, as well as a wide array of antioxidant phytochemicals.
