| Chlorophyll: The Secret Power Behind Green Foods All of the alkalizing greens in pHion Green Superfood get their color from chlorophyll — the same pigment that makes vegetables like spinach and kale dark green. Many alternative practitioners recommend chlorophyll for building the blood (which in turn increases energy). Why? Because its chemical structure is almost identical to that of hemoglobin. Both molecules feature an arrangement of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen around a single atom. The only difference is that the center atom of hemoglobin is iron, while the center atom of chlorophyll is magnesium. Chlorophyll also has a reputation for detoxifying the blood and liver. Initial research validates this usage: Several test tube and animals studies have shown that chlorophyll inhibits abnormal cellular changes caused by toxic agents. The amazing blend of 30 ingredients contained within pHion Green Superfood can be divided into three main categories: Alkalizing Organic Cereal Grasses, Alkalizing Veggies and Alkalizing Sprouts. We’ve also included Cerecalase® - an enzyme blend for optimal absorption of all the ingredients. 1. Alkalizing Concentrated Organic Grass Juices: Bursting with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and chlorophyll, green cereal grasses are often used to improve digestion and energy. In fact, a recent study found that compared to placebo, wheat grass juice normalized the number of bowel movements and promoted rectal health in individuals with colon issues. Another study found that barley grass, in combination with a mostly raw vegetarian diet, significantly improved the quality of life in people suffering from fatigue coupled with pain in the muscles, joints, and ligaments. If you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Acid causes inflammation, whether in the colon or the joints. Alkaline substances quell inflammation. So if you suffer from colon or joint issues, and you alkalize your system, chances are, you’ll neutralize any inflammation there and experience a higher quality of life. pHion Green Superfood contains: Organic Wheat Grass Juice, Organic Barley Grass Juice, Organic Oat Grass Juice and Organic Alfalfa Juice. 2. Alkalizing Veggies: Ideally, you want to get as many vegetables from your diet as possible. But who really eats the minimum of 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day (as recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans)? The answer? Eleven percent of the population. That’s right, a newly released study found that only 11% of 15,000 American adults studied actually ate 2 servings of fruit and 3 servings of vegetables per day.7 If you’re not among that 11%, why not get some of your veggies the easy way, with pHion Green Superfood? pHion Green Superfood contains: Broccoli Juice Powder, Carrot Juice Powder, Cucumber Powder, Cauliflower, Kale Powder, Spinach Juice Powder, Tomato Juice Powder, Brussels Sprout Powder, Asparagus Juice Powder, Green Bell Pepper Powder, Chicory Root, Lo Han Guo, Spirulina. Note: Spirulina is a form of algae. However, unlike most algae’s that grow in acidic water, spirulina grows in mineral rich alkaline water with a pH of 10.5. It is considered highly alkalizing because of its rich chlorophyll and mineral content. Spirulina is 65% bioavailable protein by weight and has most of the nutrients necessary to sustain life, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids. 3. Alkalizing Sprouts: At no other time in a plant’s maturity cycle does it contain more concentrated nutrition than during the initial sprout phase. In fact, young plants achieve their highest nutrient density within 5-10 days of life. During this time of intense growth, the enzymes, proteins, vitamins, and minerals within sprouts are multiplying exponentially. That’s why sprouts are such a great source of life-giving nutrition. Sprouts may contain concentrations of various compounds at levels far beyond what is seen in the mature plant. Broccoli sprouts, for example, contain much higher levels of the phyto-nutrient sulforphane, which is an excellent detoxifier. In fact, because of their pumped up sulforphane levels, broccoli sprouts are estimated to contain anywhere from 10-100 times the power of fully grown broccoli to induce phase 2 detoxification enzymes. Not surprisingly, research has shown these power-packed “mini-broccolis” counteract the abnormal cellular changes caused by toxic agents. pHion Green Superfood contains: Amaranth Sprouts, Broccoli Sprouts, Fenugreek Sprouts, Kamut Sprouts and Quinoa Sprouts. 4.
