AIM LeafGreens® … the next generation of concentrated nutrition
With a new price and a new ingredient, the deluxe green nutrition of AIM LeafGreens® has never been better.
A nutrient-dense leaf concentrate, the original LeafGreens packed in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants sold for $56.00 per canister. The new LeafGreens canister sells for $39.00 – a savings of $17.00. Plus it’s a two-month supply!
And that’s not the only change.
LeafGreens’ four-leaf green nutrition is making room for a fifth: broccoli sprouts. Packed with immune-boosting nutrients, broccoli works hand-in-hand with the nutrient-rich leaf powders of spinach, field pea, faba bean, and barley. The unique blend of leaves and sprouts is the only product of its kind on the market. And with broccoli in the bunch, LeafGreens is more power-packed than ever.
In addition to the added ingredient, LeafGreens with broccoli has debuted in capsule form. The new LeafGreens blend is now available in powder or vegetarian capsules.
LeafGreens nutrition has been a favorite of AIM Members since it debuted in 2008 thanks to a formula that is high in iron, vitamin A, and a number of vitamins and minerals.
Preferred Member Tanja Tulak of Tappen, British Columbia, Canada, noticed a remarkable improvement when she started on LeafGreens.
“I have a neat story to share about my iron levels increasing, and I’m sure it’s because of taking the LeafGreens.
“After giving birth to my fifth child, my iron levels dropped very low, all the way to nine (Note: 11 – 32 µmol/L is normal.). I started taking one teaspoon of LeafGreens per day. Over the next year, my body went through a lot of stress, including a miscarriage. However, I have not only maintained my iron, but it improved to 19 in only four months of taking the LeafGreens.
“I think that going from nine to 19 in four months is a miracle because in all the years of trying iron supplements – as repeatedly suggested by my doctors – they did not work. LeafGreens did.”
LeafGreens’ benefits should only be better now that broccoli sprouts have been added to the product. As one of the most highly nutritious vegetables, broccoli is part of a balanced, vegetable diet.
One of broccoli’s chief attributes is sulforaphane. A phytonutrient, sulforaphane has anticancer, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial properties, and it is most commonly found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli. The cruciferous name translates to “cross-bearing” and refers to the four-petaled flowers in a cross shape that distinguish this vegetable family.
Among cruciferous vegetables, the broccoli sprouts (Brassica oleracea) used in LeafGreens contain the highest concentration of sulforaphane. What’s more is that by using sprouts in the LeafGreens blend, AIM is able to provide more than 65 times the amount of sulforaphane by weight than what is found in mature broccoli. That makes for a significant difference.
With many positive nutritional benefits, sulforaphane has been the topic of much research, as scientists and biologists have studied its ability to lower inflammatory response and improve cardiovascular health among other benefits. The following four studies just scratch the surface on the research done on this highly healthy nutrient:
Study No. 1: Oregon State researchers discovered that sulforaphane has strong anti-cancer properties. The study, done in conjunction with research on the positive effects of healthy nutrition on prostate cancer, found that broccoli may have the same effect as some cancer-inhibiting drugs thanks to the inclusion of sulforaphane.
Study No. 2: A 2010 UCLA study found that sulforaphane can help restore the immune system by switching on antioxidant genes and enzymes, which can combat free radicals. Oxidative stress from free radicals can wear down an immune system over time and can lead to damaged cells, disease, and cancer. The benefits of sulforaphane are vitally important for reinvigorating the immune system to withstand free radical damage and reverse the effects of aging.
Study No. 3: A study published in 2009 found that oral consumption of sulforaphane reduced inflammation in human airways by increasing naturally occurring enzymes in the body.
Study No. 4: Researchers found that cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli support liver detoxification and reduce cancer risk thanks to phytochemicals.
One serving of LeafGreens powder or capsules provides the recommended 200 to 400 g of sulforaphane daily.
Broccoli joins a powerful leaf lineup of nutritious plants, each of which carries its own stellar nutritional benefits. Spinach contributes vitamin A, which can support vision, healthy skin, hair, and tissues. Faba bean contains quercetin, a natural anti-inflammatory. Field pea provides kaempferol, which has loads of benefits for heart health and blood flow. And barley’s benefits are well-known – the most nutritious plant on earth and a complete source of nutrition.
Group Builder Bertha Wiebe of Linden, Alberta, Canada, has noticed LeafGreens’ positive change on many different aspects of her everyday life.
“LeafGreens is a very high quality source of greens for me. I take it at breakfast and at bedtime. I feel it really keeps up my energy level. I believe it is helping my eyes and my kidneys and giving me a general all-around sense of well-being. Taking it at bedtime helps me to sleep better, and when I sleep, I don’t have trouble with depression. That is the best gift of health – no depression!”
Adding broccoli sprouts to the LeafGreens blend adds many bonus benefits to an already great product. And making LeafGreens available in a capsule form as well as powder should serve to get the unmatched nutrition in the hands of many more people. On the go or on the move, LeafGreens is never far away. Plus, vegetarian capsules make for a great introduction to potential customers who are used to getting nutrition from vitamins.
LeafGreens took leaf nutrition to a whole new level when it originally debuted. And now it has gone a step further. The addition of broccoli sprouts and the new capsule form make LeafGreens a superfood with super results. If getting enough broccoli in your diet is a challenge, try the LeafGreens way. You’ll be glad you did.
