GBG Fruit Blends High On Antioxidants


This blend consists of many fruit extracts.

Fruits are: 1) a rich source of essential nutrients and healthy antioxidants, such as beta carotene,

vitamins C and E, bioflavonoid; 2) rich source of fiber. The general amount of fiber

recommended is about 35 grams per day. Americans who favor meat, fat, refined sugar and white flour may have only 4-8 grams of fiber in their daily diet.

The fiber is important as it (1) reduces the risk of colorectal cancer, 2) binds heavy metals and

other toxins and helps in their elimination, and 3) helps in rapid transit time of waste products.

Slower transit time will cause accumulation of toxic waste with inflammation and damage of

intestinal tissues.

Some of the fruit ingredients will be discussed.
