Chemicals in processed food? “Empty calories” from high fat, high sugar foods or fast food?

Artifical this? Artificial that? It’s scary when you read the ingredient labels on some processed foods. You would need to be a scientist to even pronounce some of the ingredient names. And “they” expect us to eat it.

IN REALITY, NATURE KNOWS BEST!

Fresh whole foods really are what we should be eating. Nature has provided all the components to make a complete nutritionally balanced diet.

What’s more, because they are not processed they are more affordable, and with minimal packaging, the impact on the environment is lessened.

So what are nature’s whole foods?

Nn Wheatgrass Powder for Optimum Health

For optimum health, maintaining a healthy acid-alkaline balance is crucial.

Premature aging and degeneration of bodily functions can be attributed to toxic levels of acidity in the body. This improper balance is due largely to the types of food we eat. Meats, sugars, legumes, grains, and nuts; and processed, refined, baked, and fried foods produce acidic residues after digestion and assimilation. Since many of us eat bread, rice, noodles, chicken, beef, fish, cakes, and more, over time, acid-alkaline imbalance may result in:

• Impoverished vitality, fatigue and tiredness
• Muscle and back aches; joint pains
• Obesity
• Body odor and bad breath
• Constipation
• Dull, dry skin
• Excessive sweating
• Premature appearance of wrinkles and lines
• Headaches
• Lackluster hair
• Foul-smelling urine
• Trouble sleeping
• Susceptibility to infections
• Gout

Wheatgrass, from the family of cereal grasses, is a wholesome food with alkaline characteristics to correct and adjust acid-alkaline imbalance and maintain an alkaline state required by cells for optimum health.

Nn Wheatgrass Powder uses organically grown young shoots of wheatgrass harvested when levels of nutrients and plant compounds are at their peak. The production process retains all the vital nutrients - vitamins, alkaline minerals, enzymes, chlorophyll, amino acids, antioxidants and fiber. The easily digestible form allows your body to fully integrate and utilize the health-building nutrients it provides. Fructose, a natural sugar found in fruits and honey, is added to improve its taste.

Nn Wheatgrass Powder is a wholesome food for children, breastfeeding and pregnant mothers. For the obese, nutrient-rich Wheatgrass Powder can assist in weight loss; it discourages overeating because the rapid digestion and assimilation curbs hunger pangs.

Directions: Dissolve one packet in a cup (200 x 250ml) of water or your favorite juice. Do not use hot water as heat destroys the vital nutrients and enzymes. For best results, take
2 - 3 packets daily on an empty stomach. If you experience troublesome symptoms of acidity (fatigue, sleep problems, headaches, etc), you should take more packets daily.

Content: 5 g x 30 packets

Nature’s Restorer of Acid-alkaline Balance
Dr. Ann Wigmore, author of The Wheatgrass Book, has recorded countless testimonies on the alkalizing, cleansing, energizing and building effects of wheatgrass. Fiber-rich wheatgrass contains amino acids, vitamins, alkaline minerals, trace elements, enzymes, antioxidants, chlorophyll and plant compounds. Alkaline minerals in wheatgrass improve the transportation of oxygen, helping body systems function at an optimum level in a highly oxygenated environment. The cleansing and regenerative effects of chlorophyll dislodge acidic waste that clings to cells, tissues and organs and purifies the bloodstream. As a result, you look and feel younger, trimmer and healthier.

Important Enzymes and Antioxidants in Wheatgrass & their Functions

• Protease - Digests protein into amino acids for repair and rejuvenation
• Amylase - Breaks down carbohydrates into glucose for increased energy
• Lipase - Splits fat into fatty acids and glycerol for more efficient metabolic and cellular function
• Superoxide dismutase (SOD) - Protects cells from free radical damage
• Catalase - Strengthens resistance and natural defense
• Cytochrome oxidase - Maintains healthy liver functions
• Transhydrogenase - Supports vigorous heart muscles for dynamic circulation

Ingredients:
Wheatgrass powder and fructose (Fructose gives fruit its natural sweetness. The amount of fructose used is safe for diabetics. If more than 12 packets are consumed a day, please monitor the blood sugar level)

Does not contain preservatives, chemical additives and stabilizers. No synthetic coloring, flavoring or animal substance added.
