30 Whole Food Concentrates And
Standardized Herbal Extracts!
Green Superfoods are a category of phytonutrient-rich nutritional
products derived from green plants, algae and cereal grasses. These green foods
naturally contain high concentrations of chlorophyll and are harvested
seasonally to take advantage of high potencies of naturally occurring nutrients.
Everyone should consume green superfoods daily. They are an excellent natural
source of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, plant sterols and numerous
other nutritional constituents. Plus they're safe and effective.
What is Blue-Green Algae and how is it
processed?
Blue-Green Algae is a nutrient-rich green food that grows naturally in
mineral-rich Klamath Lake in the upper Oregon Cascades. As with most green
foods, it is an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, enzymes,
amino acids, and protein (60% average). It is processed using low heat
dehydration and is carefully screened to ensure the absence of unwanted microbes
or toxins before it is freeze-dried.
What is the equivalency of NOW Broccoli
Concentrate to fresh broccoli, and how much sulfophane is there per
serving?
A stalk of broccoli can provide up to 220% of the daily value of
vitamin C and 15% of the daily value of vitamin A as beta carotene. In addition,
broccoli contains other phytonutrients that provide additional antioxidant
activity. Two of our Broccoli Concentrate tablets provide the same amount of
phytonutrients as a half cup of fresh broccoli and contain 1700mcg of
sulfophane, 5100mcg total glucosinolates, and 11,900mcg of sulfur. This product
is derived from 100% whole, fresh broccoli with certified levels of
phytonutrients.
