Ingredients Highlights
Blueberries (especially wild) are among the foods highest in antioxidant power. Eating blueberries has been associated with a number of health benefits, including protecting and preserving lung function.
Leafy greens such as spinach, kale, and swiss chard support eye and heart health, are rich in folate and vitamin C, and offer a plethora of beneficial phytochemicals. They are also rich in chlorophyll, which helps prevent cancer, improve liver detoxification, speed up wound healing, improve digestion, and promote healthy skin.
Lemon is a potent antioxidant and helps support a healthy immune system and respiratory function.
Organixx Clean Sourced Collagens includes targeted nutrients such as zinc, vitamin C, and vitamin B6 which enhance the bioavailability and potency of collagen.
