  • Alfalfa sprouts and wheat grass for their phytonutrient, antioxidant, and phytosterol nutrient compositions 
  • Five types of probiotics guaranteed to be viable after cooking.  The minimum guarantee for lactobacillus organisms is  
  •    1.0 X 108 C.F.U.,  ensuring a healthy intestinal flora which supports: 
    • Production of food for healthy enterocytes 
    • Increased nutrient absorption 
    • Gut Associated Lymphoid Tissue (GALT) located in the intestine, which communicates with systemic  immune systems 
  • Moderately fermentable fiber beet pulp, which supports:   
    • Normal intestinal movement; peristalsis and segmentation. 
    • Production of food for the enterocytes 
    • Normal fecal output 
    • Increased nutrient absorption 
  • Pomegranate
  • Grape Seed Extract (ActivinTM), with the oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) and other phytonutrients extracted using a patented water extraction method rather than chemicals.  With over 60 scientific papers and presentations, ActivinTM has been  demonstrated to be more potent than other OPCs and vitamins C, E, or Beta-carotene.  It is proven to be bioavailable, a potent free  radical scavenger, and inhibits free radical-induced cellular damage.  It has been granted FDA GRAS status which supports its safety, being non-toxic even at high levels.
