You’ve seen the statistics…we’re living longer. But we’re not necessarily living better, are we?

No matter where you look, epidemics of obesity, type 2 diabetes, autism, chronic fatigue and other illnesses abound. But there’s a secret that no one really tells you…many of us are doing it to ourselves.

Whether we want to believe it or not, the World Health Organization’s statistics highlighted what you may already have suspected: worldwide, the majority of deaths today are lifestyle related¹. In fact, the majority of deaths were once due to infectious disease, but no longer. These days, it’s the choices we are making that are contributing to a decline in health.

So if we are living longer, don’t we also want to live better? Dr. Rob Streisfield (he invites you to call him “Doc Rob”), a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine, Certified Body Ecologist, and trained Gourmet Natural Foods Chef thinks so. In his book, A Healthier Ever After, Doc Rob helps you make lifestyle decisions that are insightful and even better, realistic for our modern lives.

Who Ever Said Good Health Had to Be Hard?
Recognizing that health information and lifestyle choices were confusing these days, Doc Rob wrote A Healthier Ever After in an easy, straightforward and down-to-earth way to help you create a mindset for health. In fact, you may find that you’ve never had so much fun reading a book about health, because Doc Rob sets the stage with many of your old childhood friends.

You can learn about becoming a conscious consumer from Hansel and Gretel, how getting a little dirty can be good for your health from Charlie Brown’s friend Pig Pen and how to deal with cravings from Wile E. Coyote. With our favorite fairy tale and cartoon characters as our teachers, A Healthier Ever After is a pleasurable walk through health education. You will learn about healthy vitamins, probiotics, fermented foods and important insights about fats, sugar, soy, whey, carbs, supplements and digestive enzymes.

A Healthier Ever After will tempt you to make the best choices for optimal wellness, by teaching you to: choose the best water, get a truly good night’s sleep, build your energy, exercise and decide between natural and allopathic medicine. It’s about time that good health was made easy to understand and with a whole host of childhood friends, Doc Rob shows that creating your best health is NOT a fairy tale. We highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to take a fun, easy and enlightening approach to building the kind of habits and lifestyle that will keep you feeling your best now and far into the future.

Did you know that we have to eat significantly MORE food today to get the same nutrients our parents got in the past? It’s sad but true.

Over-farming, chemical fertilizers and the stripping of nutrients to make processed foods means that food – even fresh fruits and vegetables -- are no longer what they used to be.

"Government data from both American and the United Kingdom have shown that the concentration and range of essential nutrients in the food supply has declined in the last few decades, with double digit declines of iron, zinc, calcium, selenium and other essential nutrients across a wide range of foods."²

Today, it may come as no surprise that we are overfed and undernourished. When your body needs more food to get necessary nutrients, it is in effect, starving, even on higher quantities of food. And if you eat processed foods, which are stripped of most of their already low nutrient content, it’s no wonder obesity and fatigue are rampant these days.

No matter where you look, you can see evidence that Americans are losing energy. From coffee to energy drinks, even kids and teens are looking for a quick energy boost to get through the day.

What’s happened to our energy?
Our diet is simply deficient in minerals. Even a healthy diet may lack the necessary minerals to boost your energy, detoxify and keep you feeling your best. In fact, your adrenals, your body’s chief energy producer (along with your thyroid), need a constant supply of minerals. Minerals have a variety of functions. Here's a quick list of some important minerals and what they do in your body:

• Magnesium helps convert blood sugar to energy, and is the 'anti-stress' mineral.
• Calcium is the most abundant mineral in your body; it initiates DNA synthesis, maintains bone health and strong teeth.
• Potassium maintains acid/alkaline balance in your blood.
• Zinc promotes proper nerve, immune and digestive health and boosts immunity.
• Phosphorous helps maintain heart regularity, provides energy and aids in metabolism of fats and starches.
• Minerals can even help you sleep better at night!

Here are some of the symptoms that mineral deficiencies can cause:

• Acidic blood
• Constipation
• Low blood sugar
• Cravings
• Anxiety or hyperactivity
• Low energy
• Low libido
• Weight gain
• Aging
• Poor digestive health
• Low immunity

In fact, studies show that mineral deficiencies are at the root of every serious health problem. "How can I get enough minerals in my diet?"

For decades Body Ecology founder, Donna Gates, has been teaching about the importance of minerals to feed your adrenals and help your body heal. These days, most high quality mineral supplements come in liquid form, making them too difficult to use for your on-the-go lifestyle. Ancient Earth Minerals are the highest quality blend of humic, fulvic, micro and macro minerals and amino acids.

Ancient Earth Minerals are also the only high quality mineral supplement of its kind that you can take in capsule form, so you can benefit from a bio-available source of minerals and amino acids while on-the-go. This special blend of minerals and amino acids in Ancient Earth Minerals helps your body:

• Nourish your thyroid and adrenals
• Detoxify
• Reduce the signs of aging
• Build immunity
• Chelate heavy metals
• Your Most Bio-Available and Detoxifying Source of Minerals

The fulvic and humic minerals (fulvic acid and humic acid) in Ancient Earth Minerals are organic compounds that act as organic mineral carriers and detoxifiers. Research results suggest that humic and fulvic acid complexes enhance mineral and trace element uptake, supporting the maintenance of mineral and trace element balances without harmful buildup in the body's cells.

Following dissociation of the minerals and trace elements delivered by the humic/fulvic acid complex, the residual humic acid/fulvic acid complex in Ancient Earth Minerals can chelate heavy metals along the intestinal tract, in turn reducing heavy metal burdens in the digestive system. The only way the human body can benefit from mineral nutrients is if they are available to be absorbed. Ancient Earth Minerals enhances this absorption process by enabling minerals to pass through cell membranes.

The average plant derived mineral is less than 0.00001 micron in size, conceivably the size of a red blood cell. The body is made up of 100 trillion cells that need constant mineral nutrients to support the energy level for healthy, vigorous life. The fulvic acid in Ancient Earth Minerals is the transporter to the body's cells and humic acid is the carrier of minerals, trace elements and amino acids.

Is your body starving?
Most people today are literally starving from mineral deficiencies, but you don’t have to be one of them. Nourish yourself with Ancient Earth Minerals and help your body reap the rewards of good health and well-being!

Get the most from what you eat. Assist Dairy and Protein maximizes your absorption of the protein you eat, minimizing waste or toxicity.

Now you can enjoy dairy foods again! You can enjoy the benefits of milk kefir without the side effects of the casein.

Strong digestive fire is key to optimal wellness. Yet certain proteins are often difficult to digest. ASSIST Dairy and Protein was designed to aid in the digestion of proteins from:

Animal Foods: This proprietary blend of Protease Enzymes plus significant amounts of HCl and Pepsin enhance digestion of meats, fish, poultry and eggs.

Dairy Foods: Fermenting milk into kefir and yogurt enhances digestion since the milk sugar, lactase, is broken down and consumed by the beneficial microflora. Dairy proteins and fats are also pre-digested, yet many people still need additional support. High amounts of the protease enzyme DPP-IV supports the optimal cleaving of casein and its exorphin peptide, casomorphin.

Nuts, Seeds and Legumes: These ideally should be soaked before eating to release their enzyme inhibitors.

Assist Dairy and Protein supports the digestion and absorption of the proteins contained in these nutritious foods and for all other vegetable-source protein containing foods.

One month's supply, 120 vegetarian capsules

Price: $42.95 Special Price: $36.95

Some food groups need several types of enzymes to become fully digested and to allow all the nutrients to be available for assimilation. Five different types of Protease are included to assure digestion of proteins over the entire pH range from 2.0 to 11.0, as found in the stomach and small intestine. Other formulas may only include one or two types of Protease. Assist is one of the most complete and powerful digestive enzymes available!

Want to get more out of your meals? Assist-SI™ is a dietary supplement that maximizes your food’s potential to nourish, energize, and heal!

Although your small intestine is something you may not give much thought to, it’s the place where most of the digestion and absorption of your food occurs.

Small Intestine Facts:

• Between 13 and 20 feet long (if over 5 yrs of age)
• Only about 1-1¼ inch in diameter
• Surface area covers the size of a tennis court
• Responsible for digesting carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
• Lengthens and loses muscle tone due to aging

If your small intestine isn't working, it really doesn't matter what you eat, since you won't be getting the nutrients you need. You're not getting the full value from your food; plain and simple.

For so many of us, this means that our commitment to a healthy diet isn't giving us any of the health and wellness payoffs we were hoping for simply because our small intestine isn't in balance. If the small intestine is not functioning optimally, precious nutrients from your food will leave your body in the form of waste.

Many digestive enzyme products only assist the digestive process as it occurs in the stomach. Because ph and acid levels in the stomach are different than those in the small intestine, these products essentially stop working when they enter the small intestine, where the ph level is much higher. Don't let your food go to waste!

Body Ecology has created a new digestive aid specifically designed to protect and enhance the function of your small intestine. ASSIST SI is a super pancreatic enzyme that turns your small intestine into a digestion powerhouse to quickly absorb proteins, fats, and carbohydrates while detoxifying and toning the small intestine, ensuring nutrient-rich blood and happy, healthy cells.

How do you know if you need Assist SI? You may have common symptoms like:

• Abdominal bloating and discomfort an hour or more after a meal
• Indigestion
• Gas
• Undigested food passed into your stool
• Intestinal candida overgrowth

Why is it important to take a pancreatin supplement?
Healthy intestinal function and a balanced intestinal environment are essential to overall health and resistance to disease. But achieving this can be challenging. The pancreas, a small gland located near the stomach, is responsible for producing digestive enzymes and hormones that regulate blood sugar. Due to diets high in mineral depleted food, cooked food, and sugar and stressful living, the pancreas becomes overtaxed and unable to complete its function.

Assist SI is a pancreatin - a booster blend of naturally occurring pancreatic enzymes. This will provide natural enzymes that your pancreas already produces, which many people are unknowingly deficient in. Taken with food, pancreatin acts as a digestive enzyme. Taken on an empty stomach, it becomes what is known as a SYSTEMIC ENZYME, working throughout your body and affecting every organ.

As a systemic enzyme, Pancreatin been claimed to help treat:

• Inflammation
• Celiac disease
• Autoimmune diseases
• Food allergies
• Weight problems
• Immune deficiencies
• Cardiovascular issues
• Blood sugar irregularity
• Acne and skin disorders
• Candida, bad bacteria, and parasites
• Fibrosis

What Assist SI will do for you

• Helps digest vital nutrients in your small intestine
• Cleanses and detoxifies the small intestine
• Assists with digestion of milk proteins in dairy foods
• Promotes regular bowel function and elimination of toxins
• Maintains a healthy balance of intestinal microflora (beneficial bacteria)
• Used as an effective systemic enzyme

Assist SI fits perfectly into our full line of digestive enzymes, which work hand-in-hand to create a healthy and robust digestive system:

Take 1 -3 Assist SI with every meal, combining with Assist and Assist Dairy and Protein as follows:

• Assist Full Spectrum Enzymes | Take 1 - 2 capsules with every vegetable/starch meal
• Assist Dairy & Protein | Take 1 - 2 capsules with every vegetable/dairy/protein meal

Pancreatic enzymes in Assist SI that help facilitate digestion and cleansing:

• Pancreatin - contains the digestive enzymes trypsin, amylase, and lipase
• Protease - an enzyme that helps break down proteins
• Amylase - an enzyme that breaks starch down into sugar
• Lipase - an enzyme that breaks apart fat molecules
• Papain - an enzyme found naturally in unripe papayas which assists in the breakdown of food
• Bromelain - a mixture of enzymes found in the juice and stems of pineapples, it assists in the digestion of protein
• Lipase (alkaline) - an enzyme with an alkaline base that breaks down fats in foods
• Lipase (acid) - an enzyme with an acid base that breaks down fats in foods
• Trypsin & Chymotrypsin - these proteases break down proteins into basic amino acids
• Alpha Galactosidase - an enzyme that helps to break down complex or branching sugars (polysaccharides and oligosaccharides) in foods such as legumes and cruciferous vegetables

Recommended Serving Size and Instructions
Take 1 - 3 capsules with each meal. Combine with Assist Full Spectrum Enzymes and Assist Dairy & Protein for greater results.

• Identical Polyphenols as Green Tea
• Uniform, 100 mg Polyphenols with Each Cup

The best Assam teas are grown in high altitudes with clouds comforting the tea plant and moisturizing its leaves. Both black and green tea leaves come from the same plant source, Camellia sinensis. The leaves that eventually become black tea are first broken up and exposed to air. This process promotes oxidation and deactivation of the valuable Polyphenols. With brewed Green tea, the lack of fermentation protects Polyphenols by destroying the enzyme that oxidizes them.

Body Ecology Black tea Extract has the same level of Polyphenols as green tea due to the enhanced Polyphenol concentration process. After Assam tea leaves are picked, they are inspected and sorted by hand. Withering takes place as water evaporates and the natural process of fermentation takes place. Fermentation, also known as oxidation, does not produce alcohol. Enzymes oxidize the tea leaf and turn it brown just like a tree leaf in the fall changes colors from green to brown .This process is accelerated by increased heat and high humidity. As a result of these conditions it takes only a few hours to turn green tea into what is known as the black tea - The world's number one beverage hot, cold, flavored or scented Body Ecology Black tea essence is extracted with purified water from a blend of the best Estate Assam teas available. The extraction process for Body Ecology helps to retain and enhance high concentration levels of naturally occurring antioxidants.

Body Ecology extracts are made from Black tea with approximately 15-30% of the weight of the leaf being composed of polyphenols; over 50% of this polyphenol fraction is comprised of (-) Epigallocatechin Gallate(EGCG), the most biologically active and influential polyphenol in green tea.

Usage Levels
Each 2-oz (57 ml) bottle contains 1,800 drops of pure tea extract. Typical usage is 20-drops, or to taste, in 8-ounces of water.

Each bottle will yield from 60 to 90 8-oz servings.Excellent served as hot, or iced beverage

The Body Ecology Cleanse Kit Includes:

Vitality SuperGreens: With 200:1 Aloe Extract, fiber, beneficial microflora, and easily digestible and bio-available nutrients, this blend is fantastic as a cornerstone of the cleanse. Glutamine, in a peptide-bonded form called Glutimmune, is one of the principle elements and is the preferred fuel source for the small intestine. It has been shown to support the regeneration and repair of the intestinal lining.

Research has also found that glutamine increases the number of cells in the small intestine, the number of villi on those cells, and the height of the villi. Therefore, it can help to heal permeability and reduce inflammation of the intestinal lining that has been linked with food sensitivity.

Supplementing Vitality SuperGreens while restricting the diet or during a gentle cleanse is especially effective. This is because any foods that may cause irritation have been removed. All focus goes to healing the gastrointestinal tract and supporting the body's ability to regenerate itself, while removing toxins that may slow the process down.

LivAmend: This formula is especially supportive to the liver and gallbladder, increasing detoxification and releasing some of the burden placed on these organs during a cleanse.

Assist SI Enzymes: Taking enzymes will help with the detoxification process by breaking apart cellular debris and cleansing the blood.

Ancient Earth Minerals: Minerals are essential when going through a period of cleansing. They can literally carry toxins out of the system and neutralize toxicities that have built up over time. A full spectrum of minerals is essential for complete balance. Some minerals, like chromium, help balance blood sugar during the fast.

Take 3 capsules, morning and evening.

CocoBiotic: A great source of potassium and naturally hydrating, this probiotic beverage is known for its kidney-cleansing properties. Friendly microflora will help to pull toxins out of the body and rebuild the inner ecosystem.

Stevia: Known to help with fatigue, balance blood sugar and blood pressure, regulate digestion, and assist in weight loss. Use in greens drinks and Body Ecology Lemonade.

In the past 60 years, we've seen more toxins enter our environment than ever before. Toxins lodge in cells, tissues and muscles until your body is completely overwhelmed. These days, you are likely exposed to over 123 toxic chemicals through your skin and mouth each day!¹

And what's worse, toxins are not a short-term danger - they actually accumulate in your tissues and are passed on to generations of children.

Here are a few facts about toxins that everyone should know:

• Toxins accumulate in fat tissue and breast tissue.
• Toxins like PCBs and dioxins affect your endocrine system, causing harmful health affects like decreased sperm count and testicular cancer in men, early puberty in girls, endometriosis in women and exposure to high levels of estrogen in babies.²
• Some toxins are persistent and stay in your body for many years.
• Mothers can pass toxins to babies in the womb or while breastfeeding.
• Toxins have a stronger effect on children's developing bodies. Exposure can lead to conditions such as eczema, hives, asthma, headaches, dyslexia, irritability, infections, autism, PDD, ADHD and ADD.³
• Over 1 billion pounds of pesticides are used each year in the US alone. Adults and children consume these pesticides, causing health problems like heart rate changes, nausea, muscle cramps, confusion, emotional instability, diarrhea, difficulty breathing and even death.⁴
• Seemingly innocent products like household cleaners and lawn care products contribute to your toxic load.
• Beauty products are loaded with toxins. Your shampoo, toothpaste, body lotion, facial cream and other products may be causing aging and other harmful affects due to toxic chemicals in the ingredients. Even health food store products may contain toxic chemicals.
• Over time, the daily onslaught of these toxins can clog up your detoxification pathways and lead to illness and dis-ease.

You deserve to look and feel your best. And now you can, with these secrets for looking younger and feeling better with Body Ecology's Detoxification Training Program.

It is so vital that we get this information out to the world. I doubt that most people have any idea of the many ways that we are poisoning our own bodies. Nor do we realize what a marvelous system our body has to detox these poisons if we give it a chance to do so. -- Jorja Hensley

Body Ecology's Detoxification Training is Changing Lives for the Better:

I am amazed at how incredible the Body Ecology program is for detoxification. I had candida for years and nothing seemed to work to heal the digestive pain, fatigue and depression I was feeling. When I started Body Ecology, I lived in a country where I could not get the products, so I focused on the Body Ecology diet alone. Within 4 months, test results showed that I had eliminated candida...just from the food alone! After that, I eliminated some bad bacteria that was creating abdominal pain, gas and bloating. I am grateful that just changing my eating habits helped me detoxify my body and eliminate the bad bugs. Thank you Body Ecology! -- HD

When I got trained by Donna Gates, my eyes were opened to what natural healing really means. I had taken many natural health classes and studied many books, but actually learning from Donna was a truly life-changing experience. I feel like I now know more about health and nutrition than ever before. I feel like I really understand how the body works, so that I can be in charge of my own health. If you have a chance to be trained by Donna Gates, go for it -- you'll be so glad you did! -- JN

Donna is amazing! Everyone who wants to be in good health should do this training, read her book and learn from her. Her knowledge, training, experience makes the detoxing process more understandable. How to do it - the best way becomes more clear. This is extremely important. The people in this country need to wake up and see what they are doing to their bodies. Donna gets to the bottom of it. -- Class Participant

The Body Ecology Detox Training really took it all to another level for me. Now I not only know why we all need to cleanse but exactly how to do it right. -- Nancy Hensley, Hopland, CA

I am a young, active woman, but all of my life I have always felt like something was off. I believe this is what led me to study psychology and then to begin reading natural health books in my spare time. I believe that nothing is coincidence. I was living in Columbus OH and finishing my masters program when a co-worker told me about B.E.D. I looked everywhere for the book, but could not find it in a single bookstore. Later, I randomly moved to Atlanta and found myself sitting in my new favorite restaurant R. Thomas Grill. Walking out, I saw a copy of the book I had earlier been looking for. I bought it immediately and a batch of cultured veggies. I took up the diet and felt instant results. That feeling that something was "off" slowly peeled away, and I felt clean...it was the strangest thing, it made me so happy I would cry on my daily runs by the Chattahoochie. I just want to thank Donna for helping my soul find what it was searching for. I pass this information along every chance I get in the hopes that others may feel the peace that I do.

Body Ecology's detox training has been fabulous! I've learned so much and detoxing has finally become more understandable at a very practical level. I have a much clearer understanding of where toxins come from, how to open up the body's pathways of elimination and what practices, supplements and food support the body's efforts at detoxification. I would recommend this training to anyone that wants to improve their health. -- Shondeya, Bend, OR

This is a great system to follow for increased health, wellness and longevity.

The Body Ecology detox training, is so informative and beneficial. It provides such an indepth- plain english- type of explanation on why you should detox, it gives information on the benefits you can have from detox too. This detox training has changed my life and given me more confidence with my son (ASD) and how to better help him on his healing journey. I recommend it to anyone wanting to improve their health and quality of life. I also strongly recommend it to parents trying to help their 'asd' children reach their full potential. -- Jaimee Rae, New Zealand

If you're trying to build the population of fat-fighting, immune-enhancing good bacteria in your gut, you need to know about prebiotics and EcoBloom.

EcoBloom is food for the good bacteria in your gut. Help your microflora do their job by adding EcoBloom to fermented foods and drinks, salad dressings and more.

Prebiotics Help Probiotics
Prebiotics are simply food for the probiotics (good bacteria) in your gut.

Probiotics (or microflora) live in your intestinal tract and help you digest food, assimilate more nutrients, and fight the growth of bad bacteria and infections.

Prebiotics feed the probiotics. By providing the good bacteria and yeast with plenty of food to dine upon, pre-biotics allow the pro-biotics to multiply more rapidly.

Fermented foods and liquids provide an excellent way to add probiotics to your digestive tract.

If you also include prebiotics as a part of your healthy diet, you can make your gut FAR more attractive to the disease-fighting probiotics, encouraging them to flourish inside you as they help make you healthier and happier.

EcoBloom: The Prebiotic Superstar
The easiest and most versatile way to add prebiotics to your diet is by using EcoBloom.

EcoBloom is 100% natural powder chicory extract FrutaFit, Inulin (often called FOS). FOS is fructooligosaccharides, which serves as food for beneficial microflora.

In Europe, FOS is added to everything from mashed potatoes to baked goods.

At Body Ecology, we add EcoBloom to everything from fermented foods to beverages and salad dressings.

Take a look at all the benefits attributed to FOS as it helps promote the growth of the beneficial microflora that live inside you. You'll soon see why EcoBloom is an important part of your healthy diet.

EcoBloom FOS may be just the prebiotic you need if you:

• Experience constipation
• Have finished taking a course of antibiotics
• Have a history of poor eating habits
• Visit foreign countries where "travelers' diarrhea is a risk
• Are under constant stress
• Would like to aid your digestion and improve absorption of calcium
• Want to discourage swings in blood sugar
• Want to improve your liver function
• Would like to improve your cardiovascular health
• Need to boost immunity, especially in long-term care facilities or hospitals, where there is increased risk of bacterial infection

EcoBloom makes a great addition to your kitchen because it is so versatile and so beneficial.

• Add EcoBloom to your fermented foods instead of sugar, to make them even more potent and healthy.
• Sprinkle EcoBloom into salad dressings, sauces or gravy add a silky-smooth texture.
• Mix your EcoBloom with any hot or cold beverage to add body and healthy benefits.

You need food for your body, but your body and your intestines need food for the immune-boosting bacteria.

Feed your beneficial bacteria with plenty prebiotic EcoBloom. Your pro-biotics will never go hungry again!

Benefits
EcoBloom quickly boosts the growth of beneficial microflora. This suppresses the growth of pathogens, reduces toxins in the liver and colon and stimulates the immune system.

Research has shown FOS with beneficial bacteria reduce the pH of the colon thus enhancing mineral absorption, especially calcium.

Ingredients include
Ecobloom is 100% natural powder chicory extract FrutaFit, Inulin (often called FOS). FOS is fructooligosaccharides, which serves as food for beneficial microfloral. 8 ounces.

Suggested Use
Use EcoBloom in cultured foods instead of sugar. Cultured foods become more potent when EcoBloom is added to the mixture.

Sprinkle EcoBloom into salad dressings, sauces or gravy and improve their texture and "mouthfeel". In beverages it adds body.

Mix 1-3 scoops with kefir starter, cultured vegetable starter, or any hot or cold beverage. In Europe, FOS is added to just about everything including mashed potatoes and baked goods.

If you are a parent or caretaker of a child or adult diagnosed with autism, or a professional with an interest in it, you are not alone. 1 out of 150 children born is now diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).¹

Autism Spectrum Disorder consists of a continuum of disorders including ADD, ADHD, learning disabilities, Asperger’s syndrome and pervasive developmental disorders (PDD). Parents are desperately looking for solutions, but unfortunately, the medical mainstream still has very few answers.

Many years ago, Body Ecology founder Donna Gates learned just how successful the Body Ecology program is for treating autism. Since then, she has been passionate about finding solutions for ASD and other childhood developmental disorders.

Our free newsletters often have the latest information to help parents discover solutions for prevention and treatment for ASD, and if you are not yet subscribed, please do!

Recently, Donna Gates and the Body Ecology team learned of a new book that is one of the most comprehensive guides on ASD interventions for parents, educators and health care professionals. To put it plainly, if you are a parent, caretaker or practitioner of any sort of an autistic, Asperger’s, ADD, ADHD or any form of ASD child, this new book is an absolute must-read.

Envisioning a Bright Future: Interventions that Work for Children and Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder shares close to 50 interventions from two dozen recognized experts ranging from medical doctors, scientists, occupational therapists, nutritionists, alternative medicine, optometry and Applied Behavioral Analysis.

What we love about Envisioning a Bright Future is that it orients the reader with a very detailed overview of ASD, including a description of each disorder along the continuum, history and treatment plans. From there, the book covers every type of treatment presently available from the viewpoint of top experts in each field. Where else can you find information that is both mainstream and alternative in one resource?

Topics Include:

• The role of vaccines.
• A bio-medical approach, including diet and nutrition and detoxification.
• The Defeat Autism Now! movement.
• Sensory therapies, including the role of the occupational therapist.
• Vision development and therapy, including the role undiagnosed vision issues play in autism spectrum disorders.
• Sound therapies, reflexes, Brain Gym, homeopathy, neurofeedback, Applied Behavioral Analysis, therapies addressing communication, play, education and more.

This book is not simply an overview. Envisioning a Bright Future gives you practical guidelines for how to:

• Do exercises, like clearing brain-buttons to increase flow of oxygen to the brain and the active cross-crawl to balance left and right hemispheres and improve learning.
• Play with a child who wants to be left alone.
• Eliminate toxic exposures.
• Follow a prioritized model of therapies.
• Choose a therapist.
• Determine if treatment really helps.
• Reduce exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs).
• Follow special diets, including an overview of the most effective diets.

The editor of this important book, Patricia S. Lemer, wrote an exceptional chapter on “Prioritizing Therapies for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders” that is a must-read if you are not sure where to begin and which protocols to follow. Ms. Lemer also includes several options for nutritional therapies, pointing out that the “Body Ecology Diet (BED), developed by nutritional consultant Donna Gates is, in my opinion, the best diet of all.”

We applaud editor Patricia S. Lemer and the two dozen authors who contributed to this groundbreaking book. If you are looking for a truly comprehensive guidebook with solutions for ASD, we highly recommend Envisioning a Bright Future. This book moves beyond compensatory techniques, offering interventions that treat underlying causes rather than masking symptoms.

About the Editor, Patricia S. Lemer
Patricia S. Lemer is a Co-founder and the Executive Director of Developmental Delay Resources (DDR), an international, non-profit organization integrating conventional and holistic approaches for children with developmental delays. She holds a Masters of Education in counseling and learning disabilities from Boston College and a Masters in Business from Johns Hopkins University. Ms. Lemer is a National Certified Counselor, and draws on over 40 years experience as a mental health professional, and 20 years as a liaison between the worlds of optometry and special education.

Ms. Lemer lectures internationally on viewing developmental delays, including autism, PDD, AD(H)D, LD, OCD, NLD and others, as a spectrum of disorders. She is especially interested in helping parents choose and prioritize appropriate interventions for their children. Her great interest in vision and the role of visual dysfunction in autism led to her becoming the Editor of Envisioning a Bright Future: Interventions that Work for Children and Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Ms. Lemer lives in Pittsburgh, PA and is the mother of an adult daughter and the grandmother of Penelope, born in August, 2006.

Naturally-ocurring, Naturally balanced, Bioavailable Minerals
Mineral-rich sea water is extracted from 2,000 feet below the surface off the coast of Kona and remains untouched and pure through its transformation into sea salt. The volcanic activity that created the Hawaiian island coast along with the naturally self-contained deep sea currents create an unrivaled mineral-rich water.

One of the last pristine environments
Scientist have found that deep sea currents are the coldest, saltiest waters and they do not readily mix with with other ocean water. Selina Naturally™ Hawaiian Salt contains absolutely nothing other than the extracted pure minerals from the deep, which crystallize in a pharmaceutical grade facility.

Hawaiian Salt - Deep and Rich
This special deep sea water contains magnesium, potassium, plus many trace elements. Selina Naturally™ Hawaiian Salt is only 76.9% sodium chloride and has an alkalizing pH of 10.22.

Convenient and Kosher

Benefits
Kefir has many benefits including better digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, and has been known for thousands of years for its anti-aging and immune enhancing properties.

Kefir is an ancient cultured food rich in amino acids, enzymes, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and B vitamins. Kefir means "feel good" in Turkish, and that's just how you'll feel after drinking a glass in the morning! Easy and fun to make at home, it is superior to commercial yogurt. An absolute must after antibiotic use!

Unlike yogurt, kefir can actually colonize the intestinal tract and is simple and fun to make at home.

Body Ecology Kefir Starter contains the following beneficial bacteria:

• Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis
• Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris
• Lactococcus lactis subsp. diacetylactis,
• Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. cremoris
• Lactobacillus kefyr (thermophilic)
• Klyveromyces marxianus var. marxianus
• Saccaromyces unisporus
• dextrose as a carrier (consumed during fermentation)

Contains 6 packets which can be used an average of 7 times each. 1/4 cup of previous batch will ferment 1 quart of liquid. 1 cup will make one gallon, and so on. For prolonged shelf life, keep refrigerated before using.

Suggested Use
To activate starter for initial usage:

• Into container (preferably glass with lid), mix together the entire contents of one foil package of kefir starter and one quart of slightly warmed milk (about skin temperature or 92 degrees).

• Shake, stir or whip with a whisk to mix well. Put lid on container.
• Let this mixture ferment at 72-75 F for 18-24 hours for milk, 24-48 hours for coconut water and some others. (You will notice it is ready if the milk has thickened and has a distinctive, sour fragrance. Final consistency is pourable but not "eat with a spoon" thick.) Coconut water will not thicken like milk, only become cloudy and much less sweet.
• Shake or stir vigorously and place into the refrigerator. Even in your refrigerator the fermentation process continues, but chilling will slow down the fermentation of the healthy bacteria and beneficial yeast.

Directions for transferring kefir after the initial batch has been made and directions for making kefir cheese are included on packaging.

Donna Gates recommends adding kefir starter to the liquid found inside the young, green coconut.

Kefir is traditionally made with cow's milk, but can be made with soy, coconut, rice, goat, or sheep milk (other varieties of milk yield a more watery kefir than cow's milk).

Kefir is a wonderful addition to smoothies!

Shelf life is 12 months from the manufactured date, or longer when stored in a freezer.

So you're committed to achieving optimal health (and fighting any health issues you may be confronted with) and perhaps you've already greatly reduced or completely eliminated sugar because you know it feeds yeast, ages you quickly and leads to all kinds of serious degenerative diseases. But let's face it, there are times when something deliciously sweet is welcomed. Yet, when we do eat it, many of us feel guilty.

We humans should not feel guilty about our desired to enjoy the sweet taste. This desire for sweet-tasting foods and drinks is quite normal. In fact, our very first food, mother's milk, was warm and sweet and we've formed an emotional bond with this taste. Trying to fight and use "willpower" to avoid the desire for the sweet taste is not the answer! That would be a losing battle.

As you know, though, refined white sugar and corn syrup is poison and even natural sweeteners like agave and honey will feed yeast and make our blood more acidic. So what choice do you really have?

Introducing Lakanto, the closest natural sweetener to sugar ever, in terms of its taste and its versatility; but not in terms of the risks it poses to your health! In fact, as you will learn below, quite the contrary.

Imagine being able to (again) make sweet treats for yourself and your family that actually taste like you used sugar, but that won't have the ill effects of sugar. Impossible? Not any longer! We are thrilled to able to bring this wonderful new zero calorie all-natural sweeter that has been extremely popular in Japan to the U.S.

In the past, if you tried to make a "healthy" birthday cake for your child or bake cookies for the holidays, you may have resorted to using agave syrup or honey in your baked goods, feeling that these were better alternatives to sugar; but those natural sweeteners do feed candida and other pathogens.

Unlike sugar and the other natural sweeteners, though, Lakanto does not feed the harmful yeast (candida) and bacteria in your body. Lakanto is even safe for diabetics! And Lakanto, the amazing all-natural sweetener, has:

• Zero calories
• Zero glycemic index
• Zero additives
• No influence on your blood sugar and insulin release
• A one-to-one ratio with sugar -- so it's easy to measure and use

Frequently Asked Question
"I've been searching for something that will help my family eat healthier, but they really don't like the taste of sugar substitutes. Does Lakanto really taste good and is it safe for everyone in my family?"

Answer: Yes, absolutely! Lakanto has been safely enjoyed in Japan for over 10 years. The Japanese Ministry of Health doesn't just approve Lakanto for use in Japan, they actually recommend it for weight loss, obesity and blood sugar problems like diabetes. Lakanto has GRAS status here in the US. In fact, over 9,000 hospitals in Japan serve Lakanto to their patients.

Coincidently, at the very same time that Donna Gates began providing stevia to America, a prominent business man in Japan began a quest to find an even closer substitute for sugar. He owned Saraya Corporation, a company with an excellent reputation for bringing healthy products to the Japanese consumer. In fact, after the war ended Japan was devastated, and besides starvation and homelessness, sanitation was a serious concern. Saraya Corporation introduced a gargling machine that was (and still is) used in schools, businesses, restaurants and hospitals all over Japan. These gargling machines greatly reduced the number of illnesses and even saved countless lives.

Saraya Corporation also became the Japanese leader in environmentally safe cleaning products for personal, home and commercial use. Their excellent products are made with coconut oil. Today Saraya Corporation devotes millions of dollars each year to provide protection and safe homelands to the pygmy elephants living in the regions where their coconuts are harvested.

Mr. Saraya has a deep interest in our children's health so he challenged his team of brilliant researches and scientists to develop the perfect natural sugar substitute. After two and a half years of relentless experimentation, Lakanto was introduced and has now become Japan's third most popular sweetener, behind sugar (and sadly) aspartame. We believe that the synchronicity between Mr Saraya's intentions and Body Ecology's own allowed our worlds to eventually be drawn together, and today Lakanto can be a part of your world as well.

Lakanto is safe for anyone - kids, diabetics, people watching their weight, hypoglycemics, and, of course, anyone with a sweet tooth. And yes, Lakanto gives you the flavor of sugar, without the many downsides.

What is Lakanto Made From?
The two natural ingredients in Lakanto are Non-GMO erythritol and the supersweet extract of the luo han guo fruit. Erythritol is a sugar alcohol naturally found in grapes, pears, mushrooms, soy sauce, cheese, wine and beer, so it and has been part of the human diet for thousands of years.

You may be familiar with other sugar alcohols like xylitol, sorbitol, and malitol used in sugar-free candies and chewing gum. But erythritol is different and much better than these other sugar alcohols because it is fermented. Yes, it is made by fermenting the sugar in corn. Many people have trouble with foods sweetened with sugar alcohols. Diarrhea and gas and bloating are frequent complaints. But Lakanto does not cause diarrhea, gas and bloating. We believe it may be because Lakanto is made by fermentation while the other sugar alcohols are made from hydrogenation.

The Erythritol in our Lakanto is:

• Specially fermented from non-GMO corn so that you know it's safe.
• Naturally low calorie because your body excretes about 90% of it.
• The 10% that remains in your system turns into harmless gases and short chain fatty acids in your large intestine. (NO, Lakanto will NOT cause embarrassing flatulence.)

Erythritol is sweet, but when used alone in a product does not taste like sugar. Only when it was combined with the sweet-tasting and medicinal fruit luo han guo - in a unique patented process - was Saraya able to create an amazing replica of sugar. The exotic luo han guo fruit grows high in the Chinese mountains, in the Guangxi province.

The Chinese have been using luo han guo fruit as a sweetener and natural remedy for years. They dry the fruit, which has a sweet toffee or caramel-like flavor, and use it in teas to ease fever, coughing and phlegm. They even use the tea for digestive troubles. In fact, the Chinese call luo han guo the "longevity fruit," because the people who live where it is cultivated often reach the ripe old age of 100!

Scientists have studied luo han guo and its health benefits extensively, and they've found that this rare fruit has amazing health properties:

• Anti-carcinogenic
• Regulate blood sugar
• Able to prevent and decrease oxidative stress related to diabetes
• Prevent tooth decay
• Anti-inflammatory
• Inhibit tumor growth
• Antioxidant
• Antihistiminic

The luo han guo fruit is naturally sweet. In fact, the special extract is 300 times sweeter than sucrose! Because luo han guo extract is sweet without affecting blood sugar, it is perfect for a healthy sugar substitute. Luo han guo extract in Body Ecology's Lakanto has:

• Zero calories. Your body does not break down the unique chemical components of the fruit like other simple sugars and carbohydrates.
• Zero glycemic index. Because your body metabolizes luo han guo differently, your blood glucose and insulin levels do not rise like they do with other sugars.
• Zero additives. Lakanto is made of the natural extract of the luo han guo fruit and erythritol.

Together, the extract of luo han guo and erythritol make one of the best healthy natural sweetener discoveries of the century: Lakanto.

Frequently Asked Question:
"The other natural sweetener you have long recommended, stevia, tastes great in drinks, but not so great in baked goods. Sometimes I like to bake though. Are you sure I can really bake with Lakanto?"

Answer: Lakanto is easy to use and tastes great in all kinds of baked goods because it bakes evenly, unlike most other natural sugar substitutes! The texture of your baked goods will be excellent! When you first taste it right out of the package, you'll notice that Lakanto actually has a flavor that is reminiscent of maple syrup but in a crystal form. It also looks a lot like turbinado sugar, the coarse granulated brown sugar you might have seen in the health food store, but Lakanto has none of the calories or health risks.

You can use Lakanto like you would use regular sugar. In fact, it is a one to one substitute for sugar.

• Looks like sugar
• Tastes like sugar
• Bakes like sugar
• Smells like sugar

Just a few of Lakanto's many other uses include:

• Coffee ( if you must drink it)
• Cakes
• Cookies
• Pumpkin or sweet potato pie
• Other baked goods
• Frozen desserts
• Quinoa cereal or your favorite cereal - sprinkled on top with cinnamon and butter

Lakanto is a protective sweetener for:

• Diabetics
• Growing kids
• Anyone who wants to slow the signs of aging
• People with compromised immunity
• Weight loss
• Hypoglycemics

If you are serious about avoiding sugar, but still want to satisfy your sweet tooth, then Lakanto is the sugar solution. At Body Ecology, we believe in balance, and enjoying the sweet taste regularly is part of great health! Now you can enjoy sweet-tasting foods without worrying about your waistline, your blood sugar or your health. Lakanto is the best alternative to sugar we have ever used, and we are proud to bring it to you. Enjoy!

Tip: Put lakanto in your coffee grinder or blender to use less and still have the same sweetness quotient in your recipes, drinks, etc. Give it a try!

Lakanto is the best alternative to sugar we have ever discovered by far. Use it in all your favorite recipes for calorie-free flavor that actually improves your health.

InnergyBiotic 500mL

How would you like a healthy, low-calorie source of probiotics that's gluten-free and provides you with loads of energy? Whether at home, in the office, or on the go - you don't have to feel tired, sluggish and "zapped" anymore?

Innergy-Biotic combines all the best features of an:

• Energy drink
• Sports drink
• Performance drink
• Probiotic superfood

When was the last time you had a drink that gave you energy and improved your health?

In today's line up of energy drinks and sports drinks, you are often getting nothing more than sugar mixed with inferior protein and questionable vitamins and minerals. These drinks boost your energy for a short time...perhaps they promise to replenish your electrolytes... but actually steal energy and vitality from your long-term health.

What if you could heal your digestive tract (your inner ecosystem), revive your energy and get healthy probiotics in one convenient and delicious all-natural liquid? The Body Ecology line of probiotic liquids - which also includes CocoBiotic & Dong Quai -- heal your gut and boost your immunity by providing you a range of healthy probiotics.

Innergy-Biotic is the brand new addition to the Body Ecology line of probiotic liquids. It just may be our most delicious probiotic liquid yet. Yes, it is healthy and healing, but we named it Innergy-Biotic because it makes you feel energetically alive and happy by creating true energy from deep within your hara or power center...your intestines.

Innergy-Biotic is special because it was created by fermenting a blend of high protein, gluten free grains, grain-like seeds and beans...all sources of easily digested vegetarian proteins.

Innergy-Biotic not only provides you with beneficial microflora to improve digestion, but it also contains specific ingredients such as high performance peptides (easily digestible protein sources), antioxidants and other nutritional ingredients.

More than a healthy, energizing liquid, InnergyBiotic can help your body recover from the physical demands of work, exercise or illness and give you a healthy, long-lasting boost of energy while also benefiting your body long-term.

Benefits

• An easily digestible source of vegetarian protein - Fermentation naturally breaks down protein into easily digestible amino acids that your body can more quickly utilize.
• A gluten-free version of our delicious probiotic liquids - while the gluten-containing grains in our other probiotic liquids are technically also gluten-free after they are fermented, some people just want a gluten-free option. With Innergy-Biotic, you have a gluten-free source of healthy probiotics.
• Boost your energy - Probiotic-rich Innergy-Biotic boosts energy because it helps correct digestion and improves immunity, giving you a natural, lasting energy boost. When the foods you eat digest well you feel this as a boost of energy.
• An easy, convenient source of probiotics - Probiotics in the form of fermented foods and drinks have long been a cornerstone of the Body Ecology program. Today, the healing benefits of probiotics are even being recognized mainstream medicine.
• Heal your gut - Body Ecology promotes healing your inner ecosystem and probiotics are key to a healthy gut. The probiotics in Innergy-Biotic are targeted to survive stomach acid that kills most probiotic supplements. The special blend of microflora in Innergy-Biotic help recolonize your intestines quickly, furthering the healing process.
• Improve your digestion - probiotics increase the bio-availability of each meal by improving your digestion. A healthy digestive tract can better absorb nutrients, allowing nutrient deficiencies to be corrected.
• Boost your immunity - probiotics are beneficial microorganisms that work to keep you healthy by keeping bad bacteria, fungal infections and parasites at bay. Most people have an overgrowth of the "bad guys," but when you drink a probiotic liquid like those in our delicious Innergy-Biotic you can obtain only the "good guys." These are the ones that keep the bad guys at bay.
• Recover from physical demands of sports - the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) found that drinks with protein and carbohydrates enhance the efficiency of carbohydrate utilization, improves muscle tissue repair and reduces muscle fibre damage.
• Create lasting energy - instead of using sugar, caffeine and manufactured vitamins and minerals to create energy, Innergy-Biotic provides natural, whole fermented foods in liquid form. Innergy-Biotic is the best way to increase energy because it works to build your health AND your energy through whole foods and active probiotics.
• Improve your health - probiotics (healthy microflora) are key to your long term health because they aid your digestion and assimilation of nutrients and they boost the nutrients of your foods by hundreds of times. Healthy microflora even help make important vitamins for healing, like B vitamins and vitamin K.
• Create beauty from the inside out - probiotics can help keep you slim, make your hair grow long and lustrous, treat acne, prevent wrinkles and keep your skin glowing. Most energy drinks and sports drinks on the market are made with some form of sugar, which damages your health and beauty.

If you look at the nutrition labels of the so-called sports drink or energy drinks, you'll see a lot of quasi-foods and forms of sugar. These designer drinks are like candy in a can, giving you instant gratification in the form of a sugar high. Innergy-Biotic is the best energy drink and sports liquid because it goes way beyond instant gratification.

With Innergy-Biotic, you get a probiotic-rich whole food in liquid form, making the protein and microflora more bio-available for your body. You get energy that lasts and a protein-carbohydrate drink that supports muscle recovery.

Superior Ingredients

• Organic Quinoa - a "grain-like" seed related to the spinach family that is prized for being a complete protein (contains all 9 essential amino acids that are required by the body as building blocks for muscles). Compared to other grains, quinoa is higher in calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, iron, copper, manganese, and zinc than wheat, barley, or corn. It is also rich in fiber and antioxidants. Quinoa's health benefits include preventing and treating artherosclerosis, breast cancer, diabetes and insulin resistance.
• Organic Millet - a high-protein "grain-like" seed, millet nutrition is important for B vitamins, magnesium, calcium, tryptophan, fiber and antioxidants. Millet nutrition has been noted for reducing cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, migraines and headaches.
• Organic Biodynamic Brown Rice - biodynamic farming takes organic to an even higher level by uniting the farm as a unit in which soil, humans, animals and nature work in harmony to produce your food. High-protein brown rice is made even more nutrient-rich through farming methods that honor our Mother Earth.
• Organic High-Protein Pulses - soybeans, chickpeas and lentils get a boost in digestibility and nutrients when fermented. Because we humans cannot digest unfermented pulses, fermenting these potentially-valuable foods breaks them down so that your body can now obtain the nutrients in them.

Important: Fermented foods and drinks containing both a probiotic and a prebiotic are called a synbiotic. The synbiotic effect from blue agave, honey, the gluten free grain-like seeds and the brown rice in Innergy-Biotic means that not only does it help populate your intestines with beneficial microflora (probiotics), it also helps improve the survival, implantation and growth of newly added microflora strains. The microflora consume this sweet food, yet leave you all the benefits of pulses, seeds and grains.

Body Ecology and the great team at Grainfield's in Australia offer you super potent probiotic liquids like Innergy-Biotic with a superior blend of probiotics that are:

• Able to survive harsh stomach acids to reach the walls of your intestines and recolonize it more effectively
• Natural to the human GI tract
• Compatible with each other

This is much more important than than the many probiotic supplements on the market today that dazzle you with large numbers of colony-forming units (CFUs). These supplements do not have the ability to colonize the way our products do.

Superior Probiotics

• Lactobacillus acidophilus
• Lactobacillus delbreukii

Full of B vitamins, 9 essential amino acids (creating a perfect protein), magnesium, calcium, tryptophan, antioxidants and a synbiotic blend of probiotics, Innergy-Biotic is your health enhancing performance drink!

Whether you want to climb Mt. Everest, make it through a long day at work or create lasting energy for your future health, Innergy-Biotic is a delicious way to build deep inner energy so that you can start performing at your optimal best!

90 vegetarian capsules. Serving Size: 3 capsules (1500mg). Servings per container: 30

Note: Regarding questions about testing for potential radioactive contamination of our raw botanical material supply - since our contract manufacturer sources the majority of our raw botanical material throughout China, and only have used a very limited number of seaweeds for extraction from coastal areas of China before the Japanese reactor issue became a problem, we are confident that no radioactive contaminated botanicals are being sourced. The availability of some seaweeds has been somewhat reduced and cost has increased because they are being thoroughly tested by the governments of China and Japan for potential exposure. For other botanicals, the high level of surveillance being conducted for radiation detection throughout China by the Chinese government assures us that proper measures are being taken. While some very low levels of radiation are being detected in China, and in various states of the US (CA, NY, MA, OR, MD, etc.) due to prevailing westerly winds from Japan, the levels are so low that they do not pose any health risk.

"Stevia...is not only non-toxic, it also has several traditional medicinal uses. The Indian tribes of South America have used it as a digestive aid and have also applied it topically for years to help wound healing. Recent clinical studies have shown it can increase glucose tolerance and decrease blood sugar levels. Of the two sweeteners (aspartame and stevia), stevia wins hands down for safety." - Dr. Whitaker.

Studies suggest that stevia has a regulating effect on the pancreas and could help stabilize blood sugar levels in the body, therefore making it a safe dietary supplement for people with diabetes, hypoglycemia, and candidiasis.

"Stevia has virtually no calories. It dissolves easily in water and mixes well with all other sweeteners...I use it myself..." - Dr. Robert C. Atkins, MD, author of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution

Body Ecology offers only the highest quality stevia extract (95% rebaudioside crystals). This extract was developed by taking only the sweet-tasting rebaudioside crystals, leaving behind the licorice-like flavor from the leaves and creating the ideal alternative to synthetic sweeteners.

"Upon the recommendation of Dr. Joseph Mercola, I decided to try the Stevia Concentrate because he said 'it is the best Stevia product he has ever tried'. Well, he was more than right. I cannot say enough about Body Ecology Stevia. I remember the day it arrived in the mail - I made a fresh container of Iced Tea and sweetened it with the Stevia. My husband and I both tried it and just loved it - yes, even my husband. I then let my Mother-In-Law try it and she loved it and is now using the Stevia also. So we have officially stopped using those bad artificial sweeteners now that we have found a good thing. Your Stevia is simply the best hands down!! A Stevia Fan in Louisiana. May God's Best be Yours!!!" - Gail from Gonzales, Louisiana

Ingredients:
BED Stevia Liquid Concentrate is made from our super-high quality stevia mixed with filtered water. 2 ounces.

Suggested Use
Squeeze a fresh lemon into a glass of water and mix stevia to taste for a delicious, alkalizing lemonade.

CocoBiotic:

The key to enhanced and vibrant health is restoring and maintaining your inner ecosystem. And key to creating that healthy inner ecosystem is promoting your intestinal microflora, the organisms that help your body defend against disease-causing bacteria, viruses, yeast and other dangerous invaders.

By far, two of the most beneficial "edible tools" to promote this intestinal microflora are:

• Cultured vegetables
• Young coconut kefir

But after a decade of watching thousands of people eat their way to better health with the Body Ecology diet, I must confess that I've seen a few hurdles along the way.

For one thing, I know there's work involved in culturing your own vegetables and especially in preparing the young coconut kefir.

Secondly, young green coconuts are still difficult to even find in many parts of the country. If you can find them, they're often too old anyway (because they are imported). So you end up tossing them out -- a big waste of your money and effort.

Even if you might enjoy the process of creating your young coconut kefir and cultured vegetables like I do, I realize you are likely busy and don't always have time to do it. Sometimes, even when you try your best to stick to the Body Ecology program, the realities of a hectic life can get in your way.

This "inconvenience" factor has prompted many people to take probiotic supplements in order to try to keep up with your bodys need for an abundant supply of these friendly organisms.

Unfortunately, probiotic supplement products on the market vary greatly in their potency and effectiveness (as well as their cost). Many probiotics do not live up to their claims. Some are not even natural.

But now I have some great news to share with you! After evaluating these obstacles to Body Ecology success, we decided to do something about it. And after very extensive effort to get the formulations just right, there is a solution; an amazing breakthrough that will conveniently and economically help balance your inner ecosystem.

This premier beverage in the Body Ecology probiotic line CocoBiotic combines the best of both worlds. A naturally-fermented drink made from wild-crafted, young green coconuts... plus a savvy blend of synergistic probiotics.

Best of all, you can enjoy this fresh and delicious beverage anytime, anywhere... and without any work! Coco-Biotic is also great for travel. Its ready to go when you are.

Light and refreshing, this sensational probiotic beverage has been getting rave advance reviews from attendees at trade shows.

While Coco-Biotic is not exactly the same thing as young coconut kefir and not made in the same way it does similarly embrace the Body Ecology emphasis on fermentation and provide you the amazing range of health benefits.

I've included fermented young coconut juice by design... because of the many benefits weve heard about from young coconut kefir users over the years such as:

• Improved Digestion
• Reduced Sugar Cravings
• Greatly Increased Energy
• Improved Liver Cleansing

I had CocoBiotic manufactured exclusively for those on the Body Ecology Diet by a company based in Australia called Grainfields, a company I've come to trust.

Many probiotic products are synthesized in a laboratory... even worse, many of them are genetically modified. Believe it or not, some probiotics are even made from human bowel waste.

Not CocoBiotic.The gut-friendly bacteria and yeasts in this delicious beverage are derived entirely from nature... from organically-certified plant sources. CocoBiotic is created from wild-crafted young Thai coconut and utilizes Grainfields proprietary FermFlora natural organic fermentation process. And just like you can't judge a book by its cover, you can't judge a probiotic based on slick marketing.

*CocoBiotic is made from organic grains and wild-crafted coconuts that are not sprayed with any chemicals.

Important: Many probiotics boast about how many different strains of beneficial bacteria they include, or the number of colony-forming units (CFUs) they contain. Unfortunately, these numbers can be misleading. The bacteria may not be natural to the human GI tract, or even be compatible with each other.

Instead of looking for the most strains or the most CFUs, you must look for how viable and active the cultures are and how well they will work in your gut. 9CocoBiotic contains a smart blend of beneficial bacteria and yeast specifically chosen to work in a symbiotic or mutually beneficial way.

• Lactobacillus acidophilus
• Lactobacillus delbreukii
• Saccharomyces boulardii
• Saccharomyces cerevisiae

One of the key reasons that CocoBiotic is such a super-probiotic is due to its bio-availability as a fermented liquid food, rather than an ordinary capsule supplement. This way, the beneficial microflora in CocoBiotics unique fermented beverage can withstand harsh stomach acids to reach the walls of the intestine and recolonize it more effectively than capsule probiotic supplements. Plus, CocoBiotic is rich in B vitamins, minerals and enzymes.

Includes "built-in" prebiotics
Just like you need food to live on, the probiotics require their own food source called pre-biotics. With CocoBiotic, you dont need to worry about buying additional pre-biotic supplements. Thats because CocoBiotic contains the beneficial enzyme-producing yeasts that friendly bacteria love to feed on. So, while I still recommend young coconut kefir as one part of your healing arsenal, you no longer need to feel pressured to have some on hand all the time. Not when you have this convenient 'all-in-one' powerful probiotic beverage.

Available in 16 oz. or 44 oz. bottles (great value at 22 servings!)

InnergyBiotic:

How would you like a healthy, low-calorie source of probiotics that's gluten-free and provides you with loads of energy? Whether at home, in the office, or on the go - you don't have to feel tired, sluggish and "zapped" anymore?

Innergy-Biotic combines all the best features of an:

• Energy drink
• Sports drink
• Performance drink
• Probiotic superfood

When was the last time you had a drink that gave you energy and improved your health?

In today's line up of energy drinks and sports drinks, you are often getting nothing more than sugar mixed with inferior protein and questionable vitamins and minerals. These drinks boost your energy for a short time...perhaps they promise to replenish your electrolytes... but actually steal energy and vitality from your long-term health.

What if you could heal your digestive tract (your inner ecosystem), revive your energy and get healthy probiotics in one convenient and delicious all-natural liquid? The Body Ecology line of probiotic liquids - which also includes CocoBiotic & Dong Quai -- heal your gut and boost your immunity by providing you a range of healthy probiotics.

Innergy-Biotic is the brand new addition to the Body Ecology line of probiotic liquids. It just may be our most delicious probiotic liquid yet. Yes, it is healthy and healing, but we named it Innergy-Biotic because it makes you feel energetically alive and happy by creating true energy from deep within your hara or power center...your intestines.

Innergy-Biotic is special because it was created by fermenting a blend of high protein, gluten free grains, grain-like seeds and beans...all sources of easily digested vegetarian proteins.

Innergy-Biotic not only provides you with beneficial microflora to improve digestion, but it also contains specific ingredients such as high performance peptides (easily digestible protein sources), antioxidants and other nutritional ingredients.

More than a healthy, energizing liquid, InnergyBiotic can help your body recover from the physical demands of work, exercise or illness and give you a healthy, long-lasting boost of energy while also benefiting your body long-term.

Benefits

• An easily digestible source of vegetarian protein - Fermentation naturally breaks down protein into easily digestible amino acids that your body can more quickly utilize.
• A gluten-free version of our delicious probiotic liquids - while the gluten-containing grains in our other probiotic liquids are technically also gluten-free after they are fermented, some people just want a gluten-free option. With Innergy-Biotic, you have a gluten-free source of healthy probiotics.
• Boost your energy - Probiotic-rich Innergy-Biotic boosts energy because it helps correct digestion and improves immunity, giving you a natural, lasting energy boost. When the foods you eat digest well you feel this as a boost of energy.
• An easy, convenient source of probiotics - Probiotics in the form of fermented foods and drinks have long been a cornerstone of the Body Ecology program. Today, the healing benefits of probiotics are even being recognized mainstream medicine.
• Heal your gut - Body Ecology promotes healing your inner ecosystem and probiotics are key to a healthy gut. The probiotics in Innergy-Biotic are targeted to survive stomach acid that kills most probiotic supplements. The special blend of microflora in Innergy-Biotic help recolonize your intestines quickly, furthering the healing process.
• Improve your digestion - probiotics increase the bio-availability of each meal by improving your digestion. A healthy digestive tract can better absorb nutrients, allowing nutrient deficiencies to be corrected.
• Boost your immunity - probiotics are beneficial microorganisms that work to keep you healthy by keeping bad bacteria, fungal infections and parasites at bay. Most people have an overgrowth of the "bad guys," but when you drink a probiotic liquid like those in our delicious Innergy-Biotic you can obtain only the "good guys." These are the ones that keep the bad guys at bay.
• Recover from physical demands of sports - the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) found that drinks with protein and carbohydrates enhance the efficiency of carbohydrate utilization, improves muscle tissue repair and reduces muscle fibre damage.

Assist SI:

Want to get more out of your meals? Assist-SI™ is a dietary supplement that maximizes your food’s potential to nourish, energize, and heal!

Although your small intestine is something you may not give much thought to, it’s the place where most of the digestion and absorption of your food occurs.

Small Intestine Facts:

• Between 13 and 20 feet long (if over 5 yrs of age)
• Only about 1-1¼ inch in diameter
• Surface area covers the size of a tennis court
• Responsible for digesting carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
• Lengthens and loses muscle tone due to aging

If your small intestine isn't working, it really doesn't matter what you eat, since you won't be getting the nutrients you need. You're not getting the full value from your food; plain and simple.

For so many of us, this means that our commitment to a healthy diet isn't giving us any of the health and wellness payoffs we were hoping for simply because our small intestine isn't in balance. If the small intestine is not functioning optimally, precious nutrients from your food will leave your body in the form of waste.

Many digestive enzyme products only assist the digestive process as it occurs in the stomach. Because ph and acid levels in the stomach are different than those in the small intestine, these products essentially stop working when they enter the small intestine, where the ph level is much higher. Don't let your food go to waste!

Body Ecology has created a new digestive aid specifically designed to protect and enhance the function of your small intestine. ASSIST SI is a super pancreatic enzyme that turns your small intestine into a digestion powerhouse to quickly absorb proteins, fats, and carbohydrates while detoxifying and toning the small intestine, ensuring nutrient-rich blood and happy, healthy cells.

How do you know if you need Assist SI? You may have common symptoms like:

• Abdominal bloating and discomfort an hour or more after a meal
• Indigestion
• Gas
• Undigested food passed into your stool
• Intestinal candida overgrowth

Why is it important to take a pancreatin supplement?
Healthy intestinal function and a balanced intestinal environment are essential to overall health and resistance to disease. But achieving this can be challenging. The pancreas, a small gland located near the stomach, is responsible for producing digestive enzymes and hormones that regulate blood sugar. Due to diets high in mineral depleted food, cooked food, and sugar and stressful living, the pancreas becomes overtaxed and unable to complete its function.

Assist SI is a pancreatin - a booster blend of naturally occurring pancreatic enzymes. This will provide natural enzymes that your pancreas already produces, which many people are unknowingly deficient in. Taken with food, pancreatin acts as a digestive enzyme. Taken on an empty stomach, it becomes what is known as a SYSTEMIC ENZYME, working throughout your body and affecting every organ.

As a systemic enzyme, Pancreatin been claimed to help treat:

• Inflammation
• Celiac disease
• Autoimmune diseases
• Food allergies
• Weight problems
• Immune deficiencies
• Cardiovascular issues
• Blood sugar irregularity
• Acne and skin disorders
• Candida, bad bacteria, and parasites
• Fibrosis

What Assist SI will do for you

• Helps digest vital nutrients in your small intestine
• Cleanses and detoxifies the small intestine
• Assists with digestion of milk proteins in dairy foods
• Promotes regular bowel function and elimination of toxins
• Maintains a healthy balance of intestinal microflora (beneficial bacteria)
• Used as an effective systemic enzyme

Assist SI fits perfectly into our full line of digestive enzymes, which work hand-in-hand to create a healthy and robust digestive system:

Take 1 -3 Assist SI with every meal as follows:

• Assist Full Spectrum Enzymes | Take 1 - 2 capsules with every meal

Pancreatic enzymes in Assist SI that help facilitate digestion and cleansing:

• Pancreatin - contains the digestive enzymes trypsin, amylase, and lipase
• Protease - an enzyme that helps break down proteins
• Amylase - an enzyme that breaks starch down into sugar
• Lipase - an enzyme that breaks apart fat molecules
• Papain - an enzyme found naturally in unripe papayas which assists in the breakdown of food
• Bromelain - a mixture of enzymes found in the juice and stems of pineapples, it assists in the digestion of protein
• Lipase (alkaline) - an enzyme with an alkaline base that breaks down fats in foods
• Lipase (acid) - an enzyme with an acid base that breaks down fats in foods
• Trypsin & Chymotrypsin - these proteases break down proteins into basic amino acids
• Alpha Galactosidase - an enzyme that helps to break down complex or branching sugars (polysaccharides and oligosaccharides) in foods such as legumes and cruciferous vegetables

Recommended Serving Size and Instructions
Take 1 - 3 capsules with each meal.

Assist Full Spectrum:

Some food groups need several types of enzymes to become fully digested and to allow all the nutrients to be available for assimilation. Five different types of Protease are included to assure digestion of proteins over the entire pH range from 2.0 to 11.0, as found in the stomach and small intestine. Other formulas may only include one or two types of Protease. Assist is one of the most complete and powerful digestive enzymes available!

Ocean Plant Extract:

Ocean Plant Extract is a raw, concentrated, exceptionally pure food supplement from the hardy, wild ocean vegetable called Laminaria japonica. Hand-harvested by Russian divers, the heavy outer fibers of the Laminaria are removed with low-temperature processing. Only the valuable nutrients remain in a potent, fully digestible form. 40 pounds of seaweed is used to make only one pound of extract.

Ocean Plant Extract contains: Alginates that purge heavy metals mercury, lead, strontium, etc.* Minerals: Iodine for thyroid support in a bio-available ionic form along with iron, calcium, magnesium, manganese, selenium Essential Sugars: fucose, mannose & glucuronic acid naturally occurring in ocean plants enhance cellular communication & immune function* Vitamins: A, B1, B2, B3, B12, C, E Antiviral, antifungal and anti-inflammatory agents* Amino Acids

Note: Regarding questions about testing for potential radioactive contamination of our raw botanical material supply - since our contract manufacturer sources the majority of our raw botanical material throughout China, and only have used a very limited number of seaweeds for extraction from coastal areas of China before the Japanese reactor issue became a problem, we are confident that no radioactive contaminated botanicals are being sourced. The availability of some seaweeds has been somewhat reduced and cost has increased because they are being thoroughly tested by the governments of China and Japan for potential exposure. For other botanicals, the high level of surveillance being conducted for radiation detection throughout China by the Chinese government assures us that proper measures are being taken. While some very low levels of radiation are being detected in China, and in various states of the US (CA, NY, MA, OR, MD, etc.) due to prevailing westerly winds from Japan, the levels are so low that they do not pose any health risk.

What leading experts are saying about the Body Ecology Diet:

"No one has ever put together all that we need to know about recovering and enhancing immunity - until now. I am making it a must reading for all my patients with candidiasis, immune disorders and food allergies." - Keith W. Sehnert, M.D., author of Selfcare/Wellcare, Stress/Unstress, and coauthor of Beyond Antibiotics

"The Body Ecology Diet is easy to understand and chock full of practical information. I recommend it!" - William G. Crook, M.D., author of The Yeast Connection and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Over 150,000 copies of The Body Ecology Diet have been sold ...mostly as a result of friends telling friends about it, not advertising. Why? It works!

If you experience pain, discomfort, fatigue, or other symptoms that won't go away no matter what you do or how many doctors you see, chances are you're one of the 80 million Americans unknowingly suffering from candidiasis, the hidden invader. The result of an imbalance in the growth of a yeast naturally present in the body, candidiasis can be a key factor in:

• Food allergies
• Sensitivity to tobacco and odors
• Digestive problems
• Other immune-related disorders
• Headaches
• Depression
• Cancer
• AIDS
• Skin rashes
• Low sex drive
• Joint and muscle pain
• Menstrual irregularities

"The Body Ecology Diet brings us into the era of whole-body therapy. I don't think the authors left anything out." Lendon H. Smith, M.D., author of Feed Your Kids Right, Feed Yourself Right, and coauthor of Beyond Antibiotics

"The Body Ecology Diet takes the mystery out of the often confusing topic of eating for optimum health. Donna Gates' book combines recent scientific thought with proven traditional healing concepts and common sense..." - Michael A. Schmidt, M.D., author of Tired of Being Tired, Managing the Patient with Chronic Fatigue, and coauthor of Beyond Antibiotics

Comments from happy customers of the Body Ecology Diet:

"...The Body Ecology Diet (BED) is how I finally recovered from bulimia & binge eating – after 4 years on the path to recovery (and trying just about everything for longer than that). I am a big proponent for experimenting with things on the level of mind, body and spirit in recovery from addictions & eating disorders. The BED supports this because it honors the ability of the body to heal itself – step by step. That’s the key, it’s a process of taking actions, no matter how small, toward your health. ...speaking to Donna was like someone finally understood what my intuition was telling me. ...Donna is a visionary in treating the body as a system – connected inextricably with the mind." – From TranscendBulimia.com

"For me, the courage to get well didn't come easily. Physically and emotionally I was very defeated, but I began to feel better within a few days of starting the diet. I can honestly say that I didn't know it was possible to feel as good as I do, and it gets easier each day. I know it sounds dramatic, but I tell people that it has saved my life. My family and I are very grateful." - N.V. Marietta, GA

"I really think that the BED system of healing is a diet that can become a lifestyle, not just a short term program." - K.M.

"The BED system of healing has revolutionized my life. Yourbook helped to diagnose my condition and with the help of mydoctor, I am now 4 months into recovering my body, mind andspirit. This "insanity" which has been going on for years isfinally under control and I am regaining my precious health. Howcan I thank you enough for writing the diet bible of thiscentury." - N.N. Shelburne, VT

"I am 69 and have been using probiotic foods for many yearsand I am in very good health. I never get flu shots or any otherkind either. Diet is the best medicine." - Sharon Redding, CA

"My son was diagnosed with Autism over two years ago. His bodyhad lots of the wrong bacteria and it struggled to break down proteins adequately - no more. The Kefir breaks the protein down for him and gives him the bacteria and enzymes he needs to gain nutrients from his food. His ability to think and speak hasimproved remarkably. He was prone to panic attacks and had acompulsive obsessive disorder - this has also greatly improved. Iam so grateful to you for making this possible." - Natasha, Sydney, NSW

"The BED diet has saved my life! At the age of 51, I now havea clean and clear inner eco system. The diet has been excitingand difficult at the same time. But the results are the prize. Ifeel and look 35, as Donna promised. I tell everybody about thebook, and of course, you are going to be the best testimonial by the way you look to others. I always believed we are what we eat,but never to the degree of the principles of the BED diet, thank you Donna." - Jill, Waukesha, WI

"I wanted to write and thank you for giving me the knowledge that has saved my life. In March 2001 I went to a holisticallyminded physician who was the first to tell me I had a "gutproblem". Klebsiella pneumonia with zero good bacteria. In AprilI started doing what she said and it really didn't help. I wentthrough her regiment for 2 months. The end of May I started theBody Ecology Diet principles. When the end of July came I was"Cured" of about 90% of all of my lifelong problems. This lasted for a 2 month period of time. The reason is my wife had to havesurgery which stopped the cooking and eating correctly. Then massive stress with many other life changes occurred. I knew Ihad to get back to it. I let it lapse for almost 3 years beforegoing back to it. What a waste of 3 years. I feel much betternow. Not quite where I need to be due to just starting again andI haven't fully implemented the total program. One thing I did learn is life is precious. Just because we have been use toliving this way for our entire lives or a good portion of itdoesn't mean we have to do it anymore. Blessings to all on thepath of health. Thank you Donna and The Body Ecology Team. It wasgreat seeing you at the Conference in Oct. " - Ken, Las Vegas, NV

If you’ve heard about the benefits of a special diet for autism or autism spectrum disorders, but you don’t know where to start, we have just the solution! The Encyclopedia of Dietary Interventions is an easy-to-use, alphabetized “encyclopedia-style” reference that is a must for parents who want to cut through the confusion of special diets, important nutritional needs, meal options and digestive health.

If your child has autism, attention deficit disorder or any related autism spectrum disorders (ASD), chance are, you’ve heard of how successful dietary interventions have been.

In fact, even the medical mainstream is beginning to promote healthy diet for children with autism. Recent studies and anecdotal evidence indicate what we at Body Ecology have been teaching for years: there appears to be an intestinal health component to autism. In other words, a brain-gut connection.

Many children diagnosed with ASD are improving by healing the digestive tract and associated symptoms of food allergies, poor digestion, leaky gut, constipation and abdominal pain so common in children on the spectrum. And to heal the digestive tract, a healthy diet is key. Unfortunately, too many children with autism spectrum disorder suffer from poor diets, cravings for junk food and mineral deficiencies.

If you have a child with ASD and want to know where to start with diet, where can you turn? At Body Ecology, we work hard to create resources for parents to help prevent and treat autism. To learn more, read our articles:

• Why Autism Symptoms May Improve by Removing Gluten and Casein from the Diet
• Autism's Wake Up Call and What You Can Do Right Now
• The Root Causes of Autism: A Supposed Mystery that is Not So Mysterious
• The Myths and Truths of the Mercury / Autism Connection

If you are ready to jump in with dietary interventions, but don’t know where to start, we have found a wonderful new resource: The Encyclopedia of Dietary Interventions: for the Treatment of Austim and Related Disorders.

Authors, Karyn Seroussi and Lisa S. Lewis, PhD. are also the creators of the Autism Network for Dietary Interventions (www.autismndi.com). After educating thousands of parents and caregivers around the world, Seroussi and Lewis took their combined their expertise, three books, countless conferences and over fifty thousand e-mails into one easy-to-use reference.

The Encyclopedia of Dietary Interventions is alphabetized “encyclopedia style,” so that you can easily look up everything you need to know to get your kids – and your whole family – on a healthy diet.

In The Encyclopedia of Dietary Interventions, you will learn:

• The most successful diets for children with ASD, such as: the Body Ecology diet, the gluten-free/casein-free diet and the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD), including a handy chart that shows the similarities and differences of these approaches.
• The research behind dietary interventions and the principles behind the different types of diets.
• The three stages of dietary intervention (how to get started, track progress and evaluate the response).
• How to deal with pickiness and food addiction.
• How to transition into a healthy diet and whether your whole family should be on the diet.
• Types of testing you can do.
• Important ingredients in food to avoid.
• Definitions of critical medical and nutritional terms that you’ll commonly come across.
• Important information about bowel health, digestive enzymes and gastrointestinal flora.
• How to approach holidays, birthday parties and celebrations that often include junk food.
• Key nutrients and supplements that benefit your child.
• Cultured foods, including Body Ecology’s cultured vegetables and young coconut kefir.
• How to travel, including what foods to pack.
• How to choose the right doctor.
• Cooking, baking and ingredient substitution options.

You’ll also learn about behavioral therapies, support groups, environmental illness and fungal treatments. In short, just about anything you’ll come across in your research or hear about from your health care provider is likely already covered in this convenient resource. In a time when what you need most is someone to make everything a bit easier, authors Karyn Seroussi and Lisa S. Lewis deliver. The Encyclopedia of Dietary Interventions is like having a nutritionist at your fingertips.

We highly recommend The Encyclopedia of Dietary Interventions to all parents looking for solutions to help their children recover their health.

About the Authors
Lisa S. Lewis, Ph.D. is the author of Special Diets for Special Kids I & II, the foremost books on gluten and casein-free diets for children with disabilities. Karyn Seroussi is the author of Unraveling the Mystery of Autism and PDD, the story of her son's autism recovery through dietary and other biomedical interventions.

Together they created the Autism Network for Dietary Intervention (ANDI.) Since 1995, ANDI has been helping and supporting parents using dietary and biomedical interventions for autism spectrum disorders. Last year, Lisa and Karyn again joined forces and put the sum of their knowledge in a new book, The Encyclopedia of Dietary Interventions. They continue to write and speak on the topic of dietary intervention, and to support other parents around the world.

Potent Proteins

Many of our customers have been asking for a protein supplement that is a reliable and safe source of energy, but also gentler and cleansing to the body. Body Ecology's Potent Proteins is a superfood made from all-organic and all-fermented ingredients. Spirulina, quinoa, millet, biodynamic brown rice, chickpeas, and flaxseeds have been fermented with live, naturally-occurring beneficial microflora.

All of the nutrients in this amazing food are predigested by the Lactobacillus microbes and are easily utilized by the body. Use Potent Proteins daily to help naturally detoxify your body, maintain a healthy weight, and boost your energy.

The Powerful Protein Sources is Potent Proteins
50% Spirulina, chick peas, biodynamic rice, flax seed, millet, and quinoa. Read more about their benefits below.

Who can use Potent Proteins?
Potent Proteins is an incredibly energizing, nutrient dense powder that is perfect for people who are:

• Beginning a detoxification program
• Fighting infection and disease
• Looking for a safe way to enhance their energy and health
• Following an organic or vegan diet
• Very active and who need to replenish often and well

Benefits of Potent Proteins
Spirulina, the primary source of protein in Potent Proteins, is an ancient super food. It is 60-70% protein by weight, a complete protein source, and rich in vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, & other nutrients. However, spirulina is difficult to digest and assimilate in its raw form, so this amazing powdered supplement is the optimal way to be sure you are getting all of the health benefits it contains!

Extensive research has shown it to be a truly remarkable food source, with its phenomenally high protein content and rich reserves of many vital nutrients, including vitamin B12 (essential for vegetarians). Spirulina also contains a formidable array of amino acids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements together with rare, unsaturated fats including gamma- linolenic acid.

Many of the densely concentrated nutrients in Spirulina help protect our bodies from stress and toxins. Scientific studies on animals and humans have shown that spirulina supports immune function, T-cell proliferation and antibody production. These studies have also shown that spirulina has anti-inflammatory properties, and helps deactivate the toxins in food.

Spirulina is known to contain phytonutrients with strong antioxidant properties which support cellular health by protecting the cell membranes and DNA from damage by reactive oxygen radicals. Many of the health benefits can be obtained from eating large amounts of certain fruits and vegetables. However, spirulina has all of these properties rolled into one.

Studies have shown that Spirulina can:

• Help your body fight infection
• Inhibit allergic reactions
• Destroy infected and cancerous cells
• Lower your Cholesterol
• Raise your HDL (good cholesterol) levels
• Fight obesity

More on what's inside Potent Proteins:

Chick Peas: a great source of cholesterol-lowering fiber. In addition, their high fiber content prevents blood sugar levels from rising too rapidly after a meal, making these beans an especially good choice for individuals with diabetes, insulin resistance or hypoglycemia. When combined with whole grains such as rice, chick peas provide virtually fat-free, high quality protein.

Biodynamic Rice: contains high levels of insoluble fiber and contributes B vitamins — folic acid and pyridoxine — iron and potassium. Rice also contains the B vitamin thiamine, which is present in the brain. An excellent source of complex carbohydrates.

Flax Seed: is high in essential fatty acids and is a healing mucilage. Flax seed can be good for the bowel system, soothe cramps and heal inflammation. It provides Omega 3 and Omega 6 oils.

Millet: is the richest in protein of all the grains. It is also rich in sillica, which is also good for hair, nails and skin. Of all the cereals, millet contains the highest level of iron. Millet also contains magnesium, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and other minerals, along with vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 and small amounts of C.

Quinoa: has an almost perfect amino acid composition, a high content of calcium, phosphorus, potassium, iron & a low sodium content.

100% fermented to magnify bio-availability. All vegan, kosher and organic.

No Artificial Colorings, Flavorings or Preservatives.

Each container contains up to 60 servings.

If you want to gain weight, you'll find Vitality SuperGreen provides that extra nourishment when taken along with a larger meal. Refrigerate after opening.

Although this is a great-tasting drink, to make it a little sweeter, add a few drops of Body Ecology's liquid stevia concentrate as desired.
