Essentials Green Alternative Herbal Supplement
300 gram
AN HERBAL SUPPLEMENT THAT PROVIDES EXTRA MEASURES OF ANTIOXIDANT
SUPPORT WITH NATURE’S INTENT IN MIND
Green Alternative offers a synergistic balance of CERTIFIED ORGANIC HERBS and spirulina in a great tasting formula that is designed to
compliment the natural diets of dogs and cats. When added to your companion’s
home-prepared or premium natural pet food, this formula provides added measures
of systemic support in a food-like form that the body can freely digest and
utilize. Unlike high-potency vitamin supplements that may provide more
nutrients than the body can utilize, Organic Green Alternative will not place
an added burden upon the liver, kidneys and digestive system.
MADE WITH THE HIGHEST QUALITY, CERTIFIED ORGANIC HERBS:
Flax
It is rich in dietary fiber and Omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFA’s). The dietary fiber of flax (and the mucilage
it contains) is very soothing, cleansing and supportive to the digestive tract.
Burdock
A plant food that is rich in vitamins and minerals,
burdock has been used for thousands of years by herbalists who recognize its
powerful antioxidant properties.
Pumpkin Seeds
Besides tasting good (to animals as well as people), the oil that comprises up
to 50% of pumpkin seeds is very rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids.
The seeds also provide a special combination of fiber, and a chemical compound
called cucurbitin. Herbalists believe that these
constituents are useful for keeping intestinal parasite populations (especially
tapeworms) in check.
Spirulina
These blue-green algae contain one of the richest and
most assimilable sources of vitamins and minerals in
nature. It is well described as a “super food”. Up to 60% of the spirulina’s physical structure is the form of digestible
protein, and just 3 grams of the pretty bluegreen
powder may contain as much at 15,000 I.U.’s of
antioxidant betacarotene (vitamin A), 755 mcg. of
vitamin B-complex (including B-12), over 60 mg. of Omega 6 and Omega 3
essential fatty acids, and dozens of trace and essential minerals – including
as much as 12 mg. of calcium, 30 mg. of phosphorus, and 45 mg. of potassium –
for healthy bones and muscles. Spirulina is also a
very rich source of chlorophyll, the stuff that makes plants green. Chlorophyll
is believed to protect cells against carcinogenic compounds.
Garlic
A small amount of garlic contains considerable amounts of protein, fiber,
potassium, phosphorus, calcium, sodium, vitamin A, thiamin, niacin, taurine, zinc, riboflavin and dozens of other nutritive
compounds. Plus, a single clove of fresh garlic may contain as much as 100 mg.
of sulfur compounds, which have been shown to posses various immune system
support and antioxidant qualities.
Nettle
Nettle is a source of crude protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium,
beta-carotene and potassium, along with vitamins A, C, D and B-complex.
