Perfect Food®

Perfect Food and Perfect Food Original are powerful, whole food formulas packed with antioxidant green grasses, micro-algae, sea vegetables, whole vegetables and their juices, sprouted grains, seeds, legumes and acerola cherries. Ranked the No. 1 selling green food in the natural products industry, Garden Of Life's Perfect Food contains more greens per serving than any other super green food. That's the nutritional equivalent of five to 10 servings of vegetables in convenient caplets or an easy-to-mix powder.

Nearly every major health organization recommends eating five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables per day to protect against degenerative diseases. Yet, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, less than 9% of American adults consume the recommended servings.

What are super green foods and why do I need them?
Super green foods are derived from young cereal grasses such as wheat, barley, rye, oats and alfalfa, as well as spirulina, chlorella, kelp, dulse and other sea vegetables. Perhaps the most nutrient-dense foods on earth, these grasses are richer in nutrients than spinach, broccoli, eggs and chicken in virtually all categories including protein, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese, vitamin C, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folic acid, vitamin B12, carotenoids and vitamin E.

Super green foods are the only foods in the vegetable kingdom that enable animals to continually maintain their weight, strength and optimal health even if consumed alone. They abound in unidentified growth factors, powerful antioxidants, immune boosters and many other health enhancing nutrients.

What are the effects of not eating enough vegetables and greens?
Surprisingly, malnutrition can occur even if your body is only deficient in a single vitamin. Malnutrition means you're not getting enough nutrients as a result of an inadequate or unbalanced diet or because of digestive or absorption difficulties. Symptoms of malnutrition include lack of energy, irritability, a weakened immune system leading to frequent colds or allergies, and mineral depletion that can trigger a variety of health concerns including anemia.

What are the differences between all the Perfect Food® formulations?

If I'm already taking a vitamin supplement, why do I need Perfect Food supplements?
The whole foods found in Perfect Food provide vitamins and minerals as nature intended, with all the naturally occurring co-factors and synergistic compounds intact. They contain hundreds, and possibly thousands, of nutrients that cannot be isolated and put into a vitamin and mineral supplement.

Whole foods and their concentrates contain complete nutritional complexes the body recognizes and assimilates according to what it needs--a process called "selective absorption." In contrast, most vitamin and mineral supplements are made from fractionated, isolated or synthetic sources that can potentially create an environment of biochemical imbalances and toxicities.

For optimal health, there's nothing better or more compatible to the human body than nutrient-rich, unprocessed whole foods in their balanced, natural state, like those found in Perfect Food.

What makes your Perfect Food  SuperFood formula better than other super green food formulas?
