Ingredients Highlights
One of nature’s richest sources of potassium, the vitamins and nutrients in bananas are important for heart health, positive mood, and bone support.
Cacao/Cocoa Powder – The closer chocolate is to its original raw state, the better it is for you. Raw cacao (with two “A”s) is made by cold-pressing cocao beans that have not been roasted. Cacao powder can be found in health food stores, specialty stores, and online. Cocoa powder is more processed and is found in the baking section of most grocery stores.
Cinnamon is a good ally in fighting respiratory infections due to its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and expectorant properties.
Collagen helps maintain the structure and integrity of skin, hair, nails, muscle tissue, bones, tendons, and more. Organixx Clean Sourced Collagens powder includes targeted nutrients such as zinc, vitamin C, and vitamin B6 which may help to enhance the bioavailability and potency of collagen.
Figs are a good source of potassium and dietary fiber. A study of over 50,000 post-menopausal women found a 34% reduction in breast cancer risk for those consuming the most fruit fiber compared to those consuming the least. Other high-fiber fruits include apples, dates, pears, and prunes.
Organixx OrganiGreens is a revolutionary organic green juice powder made with 14 sprouted & fermented superfoods and botanicals for maximum nutrition.
Tahini is made from ground sesame seeds. Sesame seeds are a good source of vitamins and minerals that support immune system health, including vitamin B6, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, copper, and iron.
