Good For You But Be Careful
Everyone talks about detoxing as if it's some magical cure that simply requires a pill and a weekend. There's also a lot of talk about alkalizing the blood and how that is a magical cure that prevents everything evil in the body. Well...that stuff is mostly incorrect. Your body buffers its blood with a calcium and carbonic acid-based system and if you had acid blood, you would die very quickly. Don't buy into pseudoscience and claims that special water or miracle fruits/pills/weasels/whatever will cure your disease.
Having said all that, this product is great. Truly organic, with multiple ingrdients from many, many sources, this contains tons of all natural stuff that can really help your body out. Green foods such as this contain large amounts of natural antioxidants and enzymes, which aren't heat treated and maintain their activitity. It probably won't cure your allergies or whatever, but it DOES act as a shot of high nutrition. The real thing to keep in mind here is that this stuff has materials in it which help support your liver and if your liver is not in the best shape, you might feel bad when you drink this. I think what this does is flood you with good, green nutrition. Carotenoids and other plant pigments reside in the skin, offering natural sun protection (scientifically proven), fruits, fiber and vegetables race around, fortifying blood vessels with bioflavonoids. Digestive enzymes help the stomach and potent antioxidant blends help quench inflammation. It's a complete package of nutrition.
I take this twice a day, without fail. I simply mix a scoop in with cool, filtered water and drink it down. It's not raspberry lemonade, but it DOES have a bright, lemony taste, mixed with a grassy, green taste. If you've ever had any other green food before, be assured that this tastes up in the Top 10. If you've never had green food before, you might need to blend a scoop of this in with a smoothie.
This is a great product and I have noticed an improvement in energy and blood sugar levels since starting this a month ago. I'd recommend this to anyone looking to get their health better, but throw in the warning that you will want to start with SMALL doses in case the liver detox ingredients don't agree with you. I never had any GI or other problems with this, so your mileage may vary.
