Ortho Molecular Product Deeper Greens -- 180 Capsules
Deeper Greens is rich in natural antioxidants, and is a good source of dietary fiber from fruits and vegetables. ORAC Value Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) is a unit value assigned by researchers to measure the antioxidant value of a given food. Foods with a high ORAC value are beneficial to the body by increasing plasma antioxidant levels. Since these values are difficult to substantially influence within the body, an increase in plasma antioxidants is significant. Fruits and vegetables have a unique combination of antioxidants that have proven better than supplementation with individual antioxidant vitamins. The Organic Advantage Ortho Molecular's Deeper Greens uses organically grown fruits and greens where available. Organically grown plants often have higher total phenolic compounds in them. In a recent study at UC-Davis, researchers found higher amounts of total phenolic compounds such as flavonoids, anthocyanidins, catechins, and tannins in organically grown fruit. The increase in these secondary metabolites provide an extra value to Deeper Greens typically not found in other green drinks. The Most Potent Grasses Available While most green drinks start with powdered grasses, Deeper Greens is formulated with a 33:1 grass juice extract, giving a significant boost to grass values and the resulting pH balancing benefit to the body. The Added Edge By choosing to broaden the scope of the traditional green drink, Deeper Greens is formulated for excellent pH and fiber values, but also as a high ORAC product that helps patients overcome diets lacking the necessary National Cancer Institutes 5-a-day intake of raw fruits and vegetables. The best science has been taken utilizing the highest ORAC fruits and vegetables, formulated into a satisfying single serving that helps patients fulfill their dietary needs.
