Rainforest
VEGETABLES
The complex environments of our rainforests provide living, breathing, renewable, natural
resources, including food, clothing, fuel, spices, industrial raw materials and life
saving medicines. At least 80% of the developed world's diet originated in the
rainforests. Most people are not aware of the bountiful gifts, which originate in the
rainforest, including major important foods of today such as potatoes, beets, beans, green
beans, squash, rice, many spices, tropical fruits and others. The ecosystem in the Amazon
Rainforest is unlike any place on earth and its wealth of vegetables, fruits and herbs are
super rich in phytonutrients. The synergistic formula of food concentrates in RICH 'N
GREEN help provide these valuable phytonutrients to our diets.
DIRECTIONS:
Two tablets, three to five times daily. Two tablets supply the equivalent amount of
vitamins, minerals, plant enzymes and other phytonutrients as one full cup of fresh
vegetables.
Contains no preservatives, sugar, starch, salt, wheat,
yeast, corn, milk, artificial flavoring or coloring agents.
EMERGING
AWARENESS
As society develops new awareness of the importance of natural foods we understand why we
should eat them. In the fast-paced lives we live, it is difficult to consume the
recommended 3-5 servings from the vegetable group every day. It is even difficult or
impractical for many people to obtain them.
As our scientific community learns more about our foods, they are also
learning what they contain. It is an almost everyday occurrence in national news about
some researcher finding a new substance in broccoli, cauliflower, carrots or whatever. The
news expounds that these new "finds" may be linked to cancer, birth defects,
asthma, arthritis, etc. These substances have been in our foods all along but we are just
beginning to learn about them.
One thing is for sure, our bodies, and the trillions of cells that make
it up, were designed to have them to metabolize properly, stay healthy and live a
productive life. Without reasonable amounts of them, our cells and organs simply could not
function properly. When this happens, we may see signs of deficiencies such as chronic
infections, improper healing of wounds, lack of energy, unbalanced blood chemistry,
nervousness and anxiety, lack of mental acuity and all kinds of degenerative diseases.
"PHYTO"
Our digestive system is efficient in digesting and absorbing nutrients from fruits and
vegetables. It is now understood that we obtain the basic three food groups from
vegetables, that is—fats, proteins and carbohydrates. We need them for tissue repair,
growth and development and the production of hormones, enzymes and other substances. We
also get energy in the form of calories from them.
A whole new area has come into view the last few years—what the
scientific community calls "phytochemicals." In the nutrition industry, we call
them "phytonutrients." Actually, both terms are correct. They are chemicals and
also nutrients. "Phyto" is the term used in botany, herbal science and in the
scientific and natural health communities to label any substance coming from a plant. The
term actually comes from the Greek word phyton, meaning "a plant." So then,
phytonutrients are nutritional substances that come from plants.
SPECIFIC
PHYTONUTRIENTS
Numerous phytonutrients have been identified and isolated. Yet common sense tells us that
there are many more. A partial listing of some of them includes allyl sulfides in garlic,
onions, leeks, chives and shallots; capsaicin in chili peppers; polyphenol catechins in
green and black teas; carnosol in rosemary; lignans in flaxseed; glycerrhizin in licorice
root; limonenes in citrus fruits; sulforaphane in broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts,
turnips and kale; lycopene in tomatoes, red grapefruit, watermelon and apricots;
alpha-carotene in carrots and seaweed; beta-carotene in carrots, squash, apricots,
peaches, red, yellow and dark green vegetables; lutein/zeaxanthin in yellow squash,
spinach, collards, mustard and turnip greens; polyphenols (bioflavonoids) in red grapes
and wine, artichokes, strawberries and blueberries; anthocyanins in cranberries and
currents; gingerol in gingeroot; phytic acid in rye, rice, lima beans, sesame seeds,
peanuts and certain legumes; phenethyl isothiocyanates in horseradish, mustard, cabbage
and turnips; saponins in kidney beans, chickpeas and lentils; monoterpenes in basil,
carrots, parsley, mint, cabbage, citrus and caraway seeds; indoles in Brussels sprouts,
cabbage, kale and dark green leafy vegetables.
SUPER
GREEN ALGAE
These "super foods" are simply power houses of phytonutrients and high quality,
easily utilized nutrients. They are cultured in controlled environments to insure they are
free of chemicals and are one of the most highly concentrated sources of nutrition
available. RICH 'N GREEN contains three of the most important ones, Chlorella, Spirulina
and Hydra Green. They have special value because of their large amount of Chlorophyll.
They are high in RNAs (ribonucleic acids). These super algae are also rich in carotenes
and lipoic acid.
MAITAKE
& REISHI MUSHROOMS
A number of mushrooms have been used by eastern civilizations for centuries. Maitake and
Reishi are two of the most valuable. Animal studies have associated these mushrooms both
with support of the immune system and protection of the liver.
BARLEY GRASS
JUICE CONCENTRATE
Grains such as barley produce a grass. When it is in the early "sprout" stage it
is loaded with incredible amounts of nutritional value. They are particularly rich in
plant enzymes, beta-carotene, Vitamins A, C and K, chlorophyll, RNA, DNA, antioxidants and
amino acids. They are simply a gold mine of phytonutrients fitting for a healthy diet.
PRESERVING
THE RAINFOREST
The food concentrates from the Amazon Rainforests in RICH 'N GREEN tablets have been
ecologically harvested using indigenous tribes to help protect natural resources of the
rainforest and its people. Furnishing education and a new income source derived from
harvesting sustainable natural resources like the phytonutrients in RICH 'N GREEN tablets
and other Life Plus International Rainforce products helps provide an alternative to
destroying this valuable resource.
DIRECTIONS:
Take two tablets, three to five times daily. While there is no iron-clad method how to
take RICH 'N GREEN tablets. Two RICH 'N GREEN tablets supply the equivalent amount of
vitamins, minerals, plant enzymes and other phytonutrients as one full cup of fresh
vegetables. The U. S. Government recommends 3-5 vegetable group servings per day. Adjust
to your needs. If it is difficult for you to obtain and prepare your daily vegetables,
these tablets are very convenient. The foods in RICH 'N GREEN tablets have not been cooked
and are in the most valuable "raw" state. So, you also obtain the greatest
benefit from their phytonutrients.
