Daily Whole Food Multis with 77 Ingredients

The Greens help me wind down…

"Often at night I can't sleep because I'm too worked up running my businesses. If I don't take a Green, I sometimes keep working till 3 or 4 AM, and feel dreadful the next day.

"So now I take Greens with dinner and about 20 minutes before I want to retire, so my mind is calm enough for me to go to sleep. I used to have a shot of cognac or vodka, and sometimes I still do, but they don't work as well as the Greens, plus they're way more expensive and not as healthy."

New Dad finds health – more energy, sleeps better, doesn’t fly off the handle at work anymore…

"If you had asked me at the beginning of the year what I was doing to stay healthy, I would have looked at you with a blank stare. Healthy? Who cares, you only get one ride on this merrygo-round they call life, so why not have fun and be happy.

"Then came the day when, after climbing the stairs to go to bed, I was out of breath and sweating like a pig - and I had walked up them. I thought to myself, "How could I let myself get so out of shape in only 36 years?" Something had to change quick. I was about to become a dad and I want to be around to watch my children grow up.

"I was fortunate to know someone who was so enthusiastic about the Pops that I had no choice but to try them. I am so glad I did. I can now climb stairs easily without sweating, I sleep better at night and I don't fly off the handle at work anymore.

"I love the Pops because they are easy to work into my daily routine. For me, it's one Purple in the morning and one Green after dinner. The Purple gives me the energy to get through the day while the Green helps get rid of all the garbage I eat and helps me sleep better at night."

Unstuck, finally…

"I lost 37 pounds on a low carb diet, but I wasn't eating veggies and I got plugged up. With Pop-A-Green I've been normal for a year now. I can stay on my low carb plan and not worry about getting sick. With both Pops, my husband's high cholesterol dropped 60 points after 3 months..."

Dunaliella Salina

Dunaliella salina, a type of algae found widely in sea salt fields, is well known for its anti-oxidant effects. The antioxidant effects of Dunaliella salina are attributed to its ability to produce beta-carotene (an inactive form of vitamin A which gets converted to vitamin A in our body).1 Other species of Dunaliella have also been known to be excellent sources of certain essential nutrients such as lipids, glycerol, vitamins, minerals and proteins.2

Vitamin A is one of the major antioxidants with protective roles in the eyes, bones, and reproductive system. Improvement of our body’s immune system, better growth and development and prevention of certain cancers are other beneficial effects of vitamin A.3 The numerous other protective effects of Dunaliella salina that have been noted in various animal studies including protection against certain effects of diabetes, prevention of infections and liver damage and protection against lung cancer.4-7
