Super Foods include dark green plants, medicinal herbs and spices, natural food concentrates and the most nutritious kinds of fruits and vegetables. Super foods supply a cornucopia of totally natural vitamins, minerals, plant enzymes, antioxidants, phytonutrients (health promoting natural chemicals from plants) and symbiotic intestinal flora for more optimal energy metabolism, fat burning, digestion, detoxification, immunity, repair, recovery, rejuvenation, and vital longevity.
Anti-aging and life extension benefits can be enjoyed via Super Foods by further optimizing antioxidant protection from scores of different antioxidants and phytonutrients they contain. Nutrients probably NOT found on your multivitamin label. Check for yourself. These phytonutrients (natural plant chemicals) include polyphenols, isoflavones, sulforaphane, lycopene, leutien, indole-3-carbinol, anthrocyanins, alpha-carotene, flavonoids, catechins, superoxide dismutase (S.O.D.), just to name a few!
Enhanced digestion, absorption, regularity and elimination is provided by the plant enzymes, fat emulsifiers, special cholesterol lowering soluble fibers and probiotics (friendly symbiotic intestinal microorganisms) in Greens First. Many users of Greens First report greater ease of digestion and elimination as one of the first benefits!
The chlorophyll rich greens and the liver and intestine supporting herbs, spices, enzymes, fibers and probiotics help the body eliminate heavy metals and other disease causing and energy robbing toxins.
Balanced Natural Nutrient Abundance
Anti-aging and Antioxidant Protection
Enhanced Digestion, Absorption and Elimination
Gentle, Natural, Ongoing Internal Cleansing
And all in a once-a day easy mixing, pleasant tasting and refreshing drink.
No cooking, no preparation, no pills, no “yucky” taste!
When thinking convenient, enjoyable, simple and affordable yet totally natural, scientifically balanced and complete nutritional supplementation, think
GREENS FIRST—First in Health Benefits!
GREENS FIRST is, hands down, the most benefit packed super foods mix available anywhere.
First of all, fortified with Oxi-Blend™, one serving of GREENS FIRST contains more phytonutrients (health promoting chemicals in plants) than ten servings of fruits and vegetables and much more!
Just how important is it to get these plant nutrients every day?
According to a recent report by the office of the US Surgeon General poor diet is associated with top 10 causes of death in US, including Heart Disease, Cancer, and Diabetes!
The National Institute of Health (NIH) recommends we eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day.
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) recommends we eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day.
American Heart Association Guidelines (AHA) recommend we eat more fruits and vegetables.
American Cancer Society Guidelines (ACS) tell us to choose most of the foods we eat from plant sources eating 5 or more servings of fruits and vegetables per day.
American Diabetes Association Guidelines (ADA) remind us to consume lots of fruits and vegetables.
USDA Dietary Guidelines urges us to eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables daily.
In Great Britain, a doctor can write a prescription for fruits and vegetables and the government will pay for the prescription!
Yet, at best, only 23% of Americans eat the minimum 5 servings of fruits and vegetables recommended each day. And even these are likely to be picked before maturity. Foods like gas-ripened bananas, cooked (pasteurized) orange juice, iceberg lettuce and french fries are hardly super foods!
Most all doctors agree that the best way to ensure adequate intake of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients is through a balanced diet that includes a wide variety of 5-8 servings per day of raw and lightly cooked fruits and vegetables of every color.
These include the cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, bok choy, cauliflower, mustard and turnip greens. Also important are the flavonoid rich dark foods like cherries, berries, plums and beets, and the carotene rich green leafies like kale and spinach, to name just a few.
But let’s be honest. How many of us can eat 5 or more servings of foods like these every day, especially in there raw uncooked state?
That's why we developed GREENS FIRST because GREENS FIRST can provide you with the most complete array of totally natural health-promoting natural plant nutrients found anywhere via the affordable convenience of a great tasting drink mix. Just add water, stir and enjoy anywhere anytime!

GREENS FIRST—First in Taste!
Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, said, “Let your food be your medicine. Let your medicine be your food”
But we doctors at DFN also know that you don't want food the tastes like medicine!
That is the reason we knew that we had to make the best Super Food Greens formula also the best tasting!
At Doctors For Nutrition we know that mixing super food powders with high calorie, high sugar, high glycemic fruit juices to make them palatable is very undesirable and often contraindicated. Plus buying fruit juices is an added expense, and it isn't always convenient especially when you are on the go or traveling.
And after years of testing, we are so confident that you will feel the difference and love the taste that you will look forward to drinking your GREENS FIRST every day or your money back. Guaranteed!
GREENS FIRST—First in Convenience!
To get all the nutritional value from 49 super foods found in Greens First, you would likely have to open a dozen or more different bottles. Then you would need to swallow 2 dozen or more different kinds of pills. And still you would not likely get the balanced, natural, complete and synergistic complex of nutrients you can enjoy simply and affordably with a delicious glass of easy mixing Greens First super food drink mix. We even have individual pre-measured serving size Travel Packets to make enjoying GREENS FIRST easy on the road or at work. All you need is water! Recommended Use
Mix one level scoop (provided in bottle), with 6-8 ounces of cool water. Stir briskly or shake in a closed container and enjoy one or more times a day. GreensFirst is best taken alone on an empty stomach. First thing in the AM is ideal!
It is much easier to take super green foods daily in almost any circumstance when all you need is water! Adding fruit juice adds calories as well as adding considerably to the real cost of taking a super greens mix.
For those few who still wish to mix GreensFirst with other juices, tomato juice or V-8 juice with a touch of olive oil, being very low in carbohydrates and high in nutrition, is our best recommendation. Some children and teenagers may prefer to mix GreensFirst with fruit juice, preferably diluted. GreensFirst tastes great when mixed with a scoop of a good tasting whey protein powder. GreensFirst is also very good in milk, even chocolate milk, if that what it takes to get these super foods in your kids!
What The Experts Say!:
Eating fruits and vegetables, particularly dark green leafy vegetables, appears to have a protective effect against coronary heart disease. Annals of Internal Medicine, June, 2001.
“… the current evidence collectively demonstrates that fruit and vegetable intake is associated with improved health, reduced risk of major diseases, and possibly delayed onset of age related indicators. ” Diane Hyson, Ph.D., M.S., R.D.,The Health Benefits of Fruits and Vegetables: A Scientific Overview for Health Professionals, p.3.
Men and women whose diets were high in fruits and vegetables were shown to have lower rates of angina, arthritis, asthma, bron-chitis, cirrhosis, gallstones, heart attack, kidney stones, and peptic ulcers.” Epidemiology, March 1998 ,Vol. 9, No 2, p 208.
" a starting point… is the regular consumption of foods that are naturally high in antioxidants and other phytochemicals (fruits, vegetables…). These foods contain hundreds of biologically active constituents not present in dietary supplements…”, Michael Liebman, Ph. D., “Nutritional Tactics Against Cardiovascular Disease”, Natural Pharmacy, Vol. 5, No. 7, July August 2001, p 30
“ Understanding the intricate world of phytochemicals opens opportunities to use these botanicals for their inherently powerful dietary and medicinal value. Studies lend credence to their numerous disease-prevention properties.—cholesterol-lowering phytosterols, saponins, and phenolics; hormone mimicing sapogenins; blood thinning proanthrocyanidins; and eye-sight enhancing anthocyanins.” – C. Leigh Broadhurst, Ph. D., “Phytochemicals: The Ties That Bind”, Nutrition Science News, Vol. 6, No. 7, July 2001 P 262
“… of all the dietary factors postulated to be related to cancer, the evidence was most consistent for an inverse relationship between the risk of cancer and vegetable and fruit consumption.” 5 A Day for Better Health, National Institutes of Health, National Institutes of Health
“ A high consumption of fruits and vegetables is associated with a decreased risk of chronic diseases.” Journal of Nutrition, 2000, Vol. 130, Issue 6, p 1578
“ …studies show that antioxidants may help prevent heart disease, some cancers, cataracts, and other health problems…Most experts think that the best way to get these… is by eating fruits and vegetables… rather than by taking vitamin pills.” Life Extension: Science or Science Fiction? National Institute on Aging
“Because of their safety and the fact that they are not perceived as “medicine”, food-derived products are highly interesting for development as chemo-preventive agents that may find widespread, long-term use in populations at normal risk… Many food –derived agents are extracts, containing multiple compounds…these compounds may find use as chemo-preventatives in higher risk subjects (as well). Journal of Nutrition, 2000 Feb: 130(2S Suppli ) pp 4678-4718
Young barley grass is one of the most nutritionally balanced foods in nature. Yoshihide Hagiwara, M.D., Assoc. Professor, Department of Environmental Toxicology, University of California, Davis. [Green barley juice contains 13 times more carotene than carrots, 55 times more Vitamin C than apples, and 5 times more Iron than spinach!]
Spirulina increased antibody responses and the activity of natural killer cells, which destroy infected and cancerous cells in the body. UC Davis Health System, Dec., 2000.
Chlorella is the most significant breakthrough I've seen in over 25 years! There is nothing better for finally helping you feel the way you want to feel. Michael Rosenbaum, M.D., Director of Orthomolecular Health Medicine Society.
We recommend trying lecithin for reducing the risk of coronary heart disease, fatty liver, and to improve mild memory impairment. D.W. Johnson, Ph.D.; D.J. Molker, Ph.D., Department of of Physiology and Pharmacology.
Green tea has been demonstrated to protect against chronic gastritis and stomach cancer. International Journal Cancer, May 2001.
