Eat The Rainbow: Nourishing Your Body with Nature's Palette
Have you ever wondered why nature paints the world in such a dazzling array of colors? From the fiery reds of a sunset to the emerald greens of a lush forest, nature’s palette is a masterpiece. But these colours are more than just eye candy; they represent a treasure trove of phytonutrients – bioactive compounds found in plants that offer a multitude of health benefits.
Just like a rainbow bursts with vibrant colours, our bodies thrive on a diverse range of nutrients. That’s why we created PLUMP and BALANCE – a dynamic duo of superfood blends designed to nourish you from within.
The Power of Red:
The vibrant red hues in PLUMP signify a wealth of antioxidant power. Antioxidants act as superheroes, protecting your cells from damage, boosting your immune system, improving skin health, and reducing the risk of chronic diseases.
Key Red Superfoods in PLUMP:
+ Acai: A rich source of antioxidants, including anthocyanins, and contains essential fatty acids, vitamins C and E, as well as minerals like calcium, iron, and potassium.
+ Acerola: One of the richest sources of vitamin C, also containing bioflavonoids crucial for its absorption. It’s low in saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium, and a good source of Riboflavin, Folate, Iron, Magnesium, Potassium, Copper, and Vitamin A.
+ Amla: Also known as Indian gooseberry, is a nutritional powerhouse packed with vitamin C, vitamin A, folic acid, and essential minerals like calcium, potassium, and iron. Low in calories, it offers numerous health benefits, including boosting immunity, fighting coughs and colds, slowing aging, and improving hair, skin, and throat health. Amla helps regulate blood sugar and heart health, acts as a diuretic, and supports liver function. It’s also an adaptogen, reducing stress and fatigue. With potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, it combats free radicals and aids in various ailments, including respiratory issues.
+ Cranberries: Renowned for their urinary tract health benefits, are rich in flavonoids (proanthocyanidins) and carotenoids, and a good source of vitamins E, K, and C, manganese, and dietary fiber.
+ Goji: Also known as wolfberries, are vibrant red fruits native to Asia with a sweet-tart flavor. Used in traditional medicine for centuries, they’re rich in antioxidants, vitamins (like A and C), minerals, and fiber. Studies suggest potential benefits, including improved immune function and eye health.
+ Jabuticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora): Also known as Brazilian Grape tree, is a unique South American fruit that grows directly on the tree trunk. This striking purple fruit has a grape-like texture and a sweet flavor. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins (C, E, B group), and minerals (calcium, potassium, iron, etc.), it’s low in calories and fat. Jabuticaba boasts anti-aging properties, promotes skin health (collagen production, hydration), and may even aid in acne treatment.
+ Mangosteen: A fruit rich in xanthones, offers powerful antioxidant benefits. Xanthones may reduce inflammation and possess unique antioxidant properties, potentially contributing to anti-inflammatory, anticancer, anti-aging, and antidiabetic effects. Antioxidants, like those found in mangosteen (including vitamin C and folate), help neutralize harmful free radicals linked to chronic diseases.
+ Maqui: Rich in iron, anthocyanins, and other antioxidants. These potent compounds combat free radicals, which damage DNA and contribute to premature aging. By neutralizing these harmful molecules, maqui berries may help slow down the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines while nourishing skin cells for a more youthful and radiant complexion.
+ Pomegranate: Rich in antioxidants and boasts anti-inflammatory properties. Packed with vitamins and minerals like folate, potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin K, it enhances iron absorption. This versatile fruit offers a range of health benefits, including cancer prevention, heart health support, potential aphrodisiac effects, arthritis relief, and blood pressure regulation. Pomegranate also provides sustained energy, aids digestion, fights free radicals, and supplies essential vitamins.
+ Strawberry: a delicious source of vitamin C and antioxidants, including anthocyanins, flavanols, catechins, ellagic acid, and ellagitannins. These compounds offer numerous health benefits, such as improved heart health, lower blood pressure, enhanced brain function, better eye and skin health, and potential relief from arthritis and gout. The polyphenols in strawberries also boost the immune system and may help slow down aging.
+ Beetroot: A nutrient-rich vegetable containing nitrates, which are converted into nitric oxide in the body. Nitric oxide relaxes and dilates blood vessels, improving blood flow and oxygen delivery to muscles. This can enhance exercise performance.
The Power of Green:
The verdant hues of BALANCE signify a wealth of vital nutrients and compounds that support overall well-being.
