EssentiaGreens

Are you having difficulty eating your full servings of fruits and vegetables every day? Worry no more!

Designs for Health has expanded its greens line to now include EssentiaGreens, our greens foods product densely packed with:

Besides being phytonutrient-rich, we are proud to say that EssentiaGreens tastes wonderful (delicious cranberry-orange flavor), thanks to the inclusion of a natural polysaccharide, prebiotic fiber known as inulin, along with a splash of stevia.

With inulin you get the best of both worlds.

While it adds a subtly sweet flavor to EssentiaGreens, it does not impact blood sugar levels the way so many other sweeteners do. More and more studies are discovering health-promoting advantages of inulin, from helping to protect against metabolic syndrome[1] by controlling blood lipids[2] and blood glucose[3], to supporting GI health through its ability to modulate gut microbia[4,5].

And the benefits don't stop there. Because inulin is a soluble fiber it dissolves easily in water, making EssentiaGreens a snap to mix into your favorite beverage. What an ideal and simple way to get kids to "eat their veggies!"

The comprehensive line-up of nutrients in EssentiaGreens will help to nourish every system in your body, resulting in sustained energy, enhanced recovery, mental clarity and overall well-being. Packed with an abundance of organic fruits and vegetables, this product has much to offer. Truly a tremendous value.
