Organic Whole Apple

Apples fight the effects of aging on the brain, which can decrease symptoms of Alzheimer’s and protect against Parkinson’s disease. They also decrease the risk of diabetes, reduce cholesterol, and prevent gallstones. The fiber found in apples neutralizes irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Apples also help to detoxify the liver and boost the immune system.

Organic Blackcurrant

Blackcurrant is a “powerhouse plant” that helps to boost the immune system, reduce joint inflammation, and promote heart health. It also contains high levels of vitamin C, which is known to protect eye health, including reducing symptoms of glaucoma. The antioxidants in blackcurrant can help to reduce oxidative stress on the body and combat the effects of aging, skin conditions, and high cholesterol. 

Organic Strawberry

Strawberries are rich in antioxidants like vitamin C, which can help prevent diseases like cancer, as well as autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and celiac’s disease. The anthocyanins found in strawberries can also reduce the risk of heart attack and lower blood pressure. Strawberries are packed with fiber and have a high water content, both of which aid in digestion and keep the bowels moving regularly. 

Organic Raspberry

Raspberries contain over half of the daily minimum recommended goal for vitamin C intake. Vitamin C not only increases immunity, it also produces collagen, which is great for the skin. The antioxidants found in raspberries are excellent in protecting against the free-radical damage that contributes to aging as well as diseases like cancer. Raspberries also have high levels of manganese and Vitamin K, both of which promote bone health. 

Organic Lemon

Lemons are packed with vitamin C, of course, but they also contain high levels of citric acid, which has been known to prevent kidney stones. They are also protective against anemia by allowing the body to better absorb the iron obtained from food or supplements. Certain plant compounds found in lemons, such as limonene and naringenin, have also been shown to have anticancer effects. 

Organic Kale (leaf) 

Kale is one of the most nutrient-dense foods in existence. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and anti-depressant effects, and it’s well known to lower blood pressure and protect the heart. One of the key benefits of kale is its ability to act as a natural detoxifier in the body. It’s also an excellent source of folate, a vitamin known to prevent birth defects. Combined with its ability to promote fetal brain development in the womb, kale is a very good choice for pregnant women. The two nutrients which give kale its dark green hue, lutein and zeaxanthin, have been shown to help prevent macular degeneration and cataracts, as well as improve vision overall. 

Organic Broccoli (Flower & Stem)

Broccoli contains a sulfur-rich compound called sulforaphane. Sulforaphane stops a key destructive enzyme that damages cartilage, which prevents conditions like osteoarthritis. It can also significantly improve high blood pressure and kidney function. Studies have shown that sulforaphane seems to stimulate a variety of antioxidant defense pathways in the body that can directly reduce oxidative stress and slow down immune system decline. In addition, it supports the body’s detoxification process and has anti-aging properties. 

Organic Carrot

Carrots are rich in polyphenols, micronutrients that help to prevent degenerative diseases like heart diseases, brain diseases, and cancer. Studies show that consuming polyphenols increases antioxidant activity, reducing issues like aging and inflammation and promoting healthy blood glucose and cholesterol levels. Antioxidants also help to lower risk of heart disease and prevent free-radical damage that can lead to cancer. Carrots are also high in carotenoids like vitamin A, which protects DNA from damage, and beta-carotene, which is extremely beneficial for eye health. 

Organic Spinach

Spinach is a superfood that’s packed with more essential vitamins and minerals than any other fruit or vegetable. Its disease-preventing nutrients, including calcium, vitamins A and C, fiber, and folate, are protective against conditions like colon and breast cancers, heart disease, and macular degeneration. Spinach also contains high levels of antioxidants, preventing skin deterioration and aging and promoting hair and nail health. Antioxidants are also extremely beneficial to the immune system overall. The calcium and vitamin K in spinach can help to strengthen the bones and prevent injury, and the fiber content encourages healthy digestion.
