why did we choose these ingredients?

banana - Bananas are easy to digest, rich in vitamin B6 and they are a good source of fiber, vitamin C, magnesium and potassium. Potassium helps to regulate blood pressure and may reduce the risk of high blood pressure and stroke. The serotonin and norepinephrine in bananas make them the feel good fruit; they may naturally help sufferers overcome depression.

hemp protein - Hemp is the most digestible form of complete and cholesterol-free protein, and is recognized by the World Health Organization as having a perfect 3:1 balance of Omega 6 to Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids. It contains live enzymes, contains no gluten, and is free of the enzyme inhibitor found in soy and other legumes and grains which prevent protein absorption and typically cause gas, bloating and other digestion problems. In addition, there are no known allergies to hemp. Hemp is the highest vegan source of Edestin, a simple protein that is responsible for the natural and acquired immune system, and is high in the natural antioxidants Vitamin E, Vitamin C and chlorophyll. Check out this movie with testimonials and benefits of hemp protein.

greens powder - Greens powder, commonly touted as a "superfood", helps to increase energy levels and support the proper function of the immune system. Greens have also been shown to improve mental acuity, gently cleanse the gastrointestinal system, and restore a healthy pH balance to the human body.

herb cocktail - Avena Originals' Herb Cocktail is a powerful detoxifier and bowel cleanse. It is safe and gentle, yet cleans your body completely. The electrical matrix of Avena's Electric Herb Cocktail formulation allows the cleansing process to take place from within the cells of the bowel walls. The bowels are not scraped clean, but rebuilt electrically from the inside out, allowing the toxins and compressed matter to be released gently and safely.

hemp oil - We use Living Harvest brand of Hemp Oil, which offers Extra Virgin, Cold Pressed, Raw, Certified Organic Hemp Oil. Hemp Oil has the perfect ratio of Omega 3 and 6 Essential Fatty Acids with GLA for optimum, balanced nutrition. Also rich in Vitamin E and Chlorophyll.

flax seed oil - Flax seeds contain 12% mucilage, which makes it a gentle, natural laxative. Flax seed contains high levels of plant estrogens (phytoestrogens), which reduce hot flashes and other symptoms of menopause and perimenopause. Flax seed oil acts as a buffer for excess stomach acids, soothes ulcers and irritable bowel disorders, lubricates and absorbs toxins, and prevents toxic build up in the bowel. Flax seeds have the richest source of lignans, which have anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-cancer properties. Flax oil also contains lecithin which emulsifies fat and cholesterol. Flax seed oil is said to improve digestion, help stabilize blood glucose levels, fight tumor formation and enhance cardiovascular health.

organic unsulphered blackstrap molasses - Organic unsulphered blackstrap molasses are an excellent source of iron, calcium, copper and manganese, as well as potassium, and magnesium. Unsulphured means that it does it not contain sulpher which is used as a processing chemical.

whole apple, peel included - The greatest benefits are two types of fiber which help reduce cholesterol, flavonoids which are proven to help prevent heart disease, and fructose, a simple sugar that is broken down very slowly, helping to keep blood sugar levels stable. It's long been known that apple peel contains high concentrations of special antioxidant compounds called phenols that may assist in the prevention of a number of chronic diseases.

water - Water is probably the most often overlooked tool for a completely healthy body. It has been discovered that many illnesses can be alleviated or eliminated with proper hydration. Pure, clean water energizes, cleanses and sustains us. Drink the purest water available. Use your own filter - don't rely on tap water to be pure. Unfiltered tap water may contain chlorine, fluoride, agricultural run-off, herbicides, pesticides, drug residues and too many other poisons to list. Don't drink distilled water.
