Sustainable Health for You and the Planet on Earth Day With Garden of Life Foods
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., April 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — As Earth Day 2007 approaches, and the greening of America is going mainstream; consumers have higher expectations about the products they consume. Foods and nutritional products today must not only taste good and be good for you; they must also meet standards for a healthy and socially responsible lifestyle. Through its careful and sustainable approach to sourcing and processing, Garden of Life offers consumers a variety of nutritious food products that meet those expectations.
Garden of Life, a longtime leader in whole food based nutritional products, strives to meet socially responsible goals in both sourcing and processing, ensuring that the products consumers enjoy meet the highest standards of quality and sustainable accountability. Through practices such as fair trade purchasing and environmentally-friendly farming techniques, Garden of Life works to support sustainable economies throughout the world. Garden of Life then ensures the maximum wellness capabilities of its products through its nutrient-preserving processing techniques.
“It is up to us to create a healthy environment for ourselves and those we love,” says Garden of Life founder Jordan Rubin. “Perhaps more importantly, it is up to us to pass on a healthy legacy to future generations.”
Garden of Life carries this philosophy of environmental responsibility into every step of the production process. The result is a variety of truly sustainable food products that consumers can feel good about:
— Fruits of Life(TM) is a 100% organic blend of seven fruits that have been freeze-dried, using a gentle process that allows the fruit to maintain its nutrient content, fiber and great taste. Evidence suggests that freeze-dried fruits may contain a higher content of antioxidants and a higher content of flavor compounds compared with products that have been dried by conventional hot air methods. — Perfect Food(R) Super Green Formula contains more greens per serving than any other leading green formula. Super Green Formula is made with young cereal grass that has been juiced when freshly harvested, ensuring a higher nutrient profile. — Living Foods(TM) Organic Teas is a flavor-fresh brewed tea concentrate that contains polyphenolic antioxidants to support a healthy heart and metabolism. Imported from the pristine Wuyi Mountains of China, purchases of this all-natural product help to support sustainable economies in the Wuyi Mountain region. — Living Foods(TM) Hawaiian Lehua Honey is pure and unfiltered to preserve the rich nutrients and live enzymes of nature. A sweet and healthy treat that is 100% certified organic, it is harvested only once per year from the Lehua flower blossoms of the Ohia trees in the remote volcanic mountains of Hawaii. — Living Foods(TM) Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, produced using the same methods Philippine farmers have used for centuries, contains oil from the meat of only the freshest, organically grown coconuts and helps to maintain healthy levels of cholesterol and thermogenesis at recommended levels of consumption.
Garden of Life products can be found at independent health food retailers and select specialty retailers, such as Whole Foods(R) and Vitamin Shoppe(R).
