Thanks to these anthocyanins - and other flavonoid and flavonol molecules - blackberries are being researched for their potential neuroprotective effects. Blackberries are also rich in fiber and potassium.

Our bladderwrack is a brown seaweed organically grown and sourced in Australia. We use an extract from the bladderwrack that is rich in fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide with antioxidant properties. Cellular studies suggest that fucoidan may support procollagen protein expression and prevent damage related to UVB light. Fucoidan derived from bladderwrack may also promote smooth, even skin through its anti-elastase and anti-collagenase activity, which halts the break down of enzymes necessary for skin integrity and health. Fucoidan has been researched for its potential to activate hepatocyte growth factor, an important chemical for stimulating hair growth.

Blueberries get their beautiful blue hue from the anthocyanins that are present. These anthocyanins have anti-inflammatory effects that research suggests is mediated through the NF-kB pathway. Blueberries are also high in Vitamins C and K, as well as antioxidant carotenoids like beta-carotene and zeaxanthin. Blueberries have been studied for their potential to reduce blood pressure and arterial stiffness.

As a cruciferous vegetable, broccoli has high amounts of sulfur-containing glucosinolates. These glucosinolates are converted in the body to isothiocyanates (like sulforaphane), which are being studied for their antioxidant and health-promoting potential. Studies have shown that eating fresh broccoli instead of cooked may result in a higher level of these isothiocyanates in the body, which is why we include raw broccoli greens in our protein powder. Broccoli is also high in Vitamin K and carotenoids like lutein and zeaxanthin.

Bromelain is a digestive enzyme that naturally occurs in pineapple. Bromelain specifically helps break down proteins, but research has found wide-reaching benefits of this enzyme, from your gut to your heart. Bromelain may reduce the duration of nasal congestion for children with colds, improve physical function and reduce stiffness in individuals with knee pain, and decrease the amount of pro-inflammatory cytokines in cells from individuals with inflammatory bowel disease.

We add a pinch of sweetness to our protein powder so it's delicious enough to incorporate into your daily routine. To do so, we use brown rice syrup solids, a sweetener made from cooked rice. Brown rice syrup contains essentially no fructose, a sugar molecule that is processed by the liver and may be related to higher triglyceride levels in the blood.

Our organic Maca comes from the mountains of Peru and is gelatinized. Gelatinized maca can contain more than 4x the zinc, iron, and calcium content of raw maca powder.

Cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable, which means that it's high in sulfur-containing compounds called glucosinolates.

Coconut (and coconut oil) are all the rage these days and for good reason. Coconuts contain Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs), which are fatty acids that assist in the metabolic process[1]

Coconut milk provides the rich and creamy texture of So Lean and So Clean. We love it as an ingredient because coconut milk contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). MCTs are special fats that are immediately absorbed and metabolized (unlike other fat sources which travel through the lymphatic system before being metabolized). Research has found that consuming MCTs may cause your body to expend more energy and help you feel fuller and consume less food at later meals.

We use coconut sugar because it’s an environmentally-friendly sweetener: collecting the sap doesn't require coconut trees to be cut down. Every tree that remains standing can prevent soil erosion. Coconut sugar also contains trace micronutrients and has a lower glycemic index compared to conventional table sugar.

Coconut water is nature's rehydration drink of choice. Coconut water is high in electrolytes, particularly potassium. Many folks feel nauseated when they use typical sports drinks to rehydrate because they're high in sugar. That's why we use coconut water, which studies show may be associated with less stomach upset when used for exercise rehydration as compared to sugar-filled beverages. One study also found that coconut water may be easier to absorb than those sugary drinks.

Cordyceps has been traditionally used throughout East and Southeast Asia to support vitality. Cordyceps may increase estrogen synthesis, subtly influencing your own body's hormonal balance. Cordecyps is also rich in phytoestrogenic compounds, plant-based molecules similar to the estrogen we have in our bodies. Cordyceps can also help support a beneficial hormonal balance through its antioxidant properties.

Wonderful, tart cranberries are particularly rich in Vitamin C and various polyphenols, including proanthocyanins, terpenes, and more. These compounds act as antioxidants in the body and may be why one study found that drinking cranberry juice was associated with lower levels of oxidated LDL (bad) cholesterol.

People once thought the acidity of cranberry juice was what prevented and relieved UTI infections. Additional research shows that proanthocyanidins (PACs), one of the primary antioxidants found in cranberries, are the actual heroes. These PACs pack a punch, by changing the surface properties of E. coli bacteria (one of the main causes of UTI's and inhibit their ability to adhere to cells in the urinary tract).[1],[2],[3]

Known as Kadi Patta, and a great source of nutrition in India for centuries, curry leaves are an excellent source of Vitamins A, B and E, supporting the immune system and heart function.

It turns out that weeds are beneficial - dandelion is used as a traditional medicine around the globe. From China to Mexico, and from Russia to India, people have used dandelion for its potential diuretic, liver-protecting, and anti-hyperglycemic effects. Dandelion leaves are particularly rich in calcium and Vitamin K. They also contain chlorogenic acid, a compound that's been studied for its potential antioxidant effects. Researchers are also investigating how dandelion may support healthy blood sugar, potentially through slowing the digestion of carbohydrates.

Dates are filled with excellent nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, manganese, and vitamin B6. They are also high in antioxidants and are a great source of fiber.[1],[2]

DHA is an essential fatty acid that makes up ~27% of the adult cerebral cortex of the brain! Studies suggest that DHA has an important role in optimal fetal neurodevelopment, as well as in the healthy transmission of neurotransmitters like serotonin. DHA is also the most abundant omega 3 in the visual system, and healthy levels of DHA are associated with fewer symptoms of dry eyes as well as reduced risk of macular degeneration. It's not just about your brain - studies suggest that omega-3 supplementation is associated with healthy heart functionlower risk of metabolic syndrome and reduced activation of Nf-KB, a molecule that activates genes linked to inflammation and is associated with many major diseases.

Dulse is a red seaweed that is rich in protein, magnesium, potassium, and vitamin B12. Dulse extracts have been studied for their potential to act as antioxidants.

Amylase is an enzyme that is naturally present in the mouth and the instestines. Amylase begins the breakdown of starch to smaller molecules called oligosaccharides. This is an important first step to faciliating the breakdown and absorption of carbohydrates - your body's main energy source. Amylase has been studied for its potential to alter the texture of starches and improve their digestibility. Interestingly, research also suggests that having a genetic predisposition to generate more amylase enzyme might be associated with lower obesity risk.

Garlic has been used for centuries as a health tonic, and is now being studied for its potential effects on the immune system. A recent study explored how taking garlic throughout the winter season may be associated with a reduced number of colds and flus, less sick days taken, and a reduced severity of symptoms. Taking garlic may be associated with a more favorable combination of immune cells, which could explain how garlic could help your body respond well to pathogens.

That sharp, hot flavor of ginger affects more than just your tongue. The active gingerols, shogaols, paradols, and zingerone present in ginger have been found to have antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Consuming ginger may also be associated with lower C-Reactive Protein (CRP).

Glucoamylase is an important digestive enzyme that works with amylase to break down and convert starch into glucose, before it's absorbed in your intestines. We care about glucose because it's the carbohydrate that your body uses for energy.

Goji berry is a fruit that's used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to support liver health. Science is confirming that many of the benefits of goji berry may be due to its high levels of flavanols, polysaccharides, and carotenoids like zeaxanthin and beta-carotene. Supplementing with zeaxanthin may be associated with improved skin hydration and reduced appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Research suggests that taking beta-carotene may be associated with reduced wrinkles and a more healthy response to UV light. Goji is being studied for its antioxidant benefits and potential to protect against cell damage related to UV exposure.

Gooseberries, or Amla, are super-high in Vitamin C and are great for supporting food and calcium absorption. They're also high in fiber, to assist in maintaining good digestive health.

Grape seeds are full of proanthocyanidins, potent antioxidant molecules. Studies have shown that grape seed extract may act as a stronger antioxidant than Vitamins C and E. Research suggests that the anti-inflammatory action of grape seed extract may be mediated through a reduction in NF-kB, which governs the body's inflammatory response. One study showed that grape seed extract may reduce oxidative damage in the DNA of skin cells exposed to UVB.

Green algae produces high levels of astaxanthin, a highly bioavailable antioxidant similar to beta-carotene. One study of human skin cells has shown that astaxanthin may help lessen hyperpigmentation in response to inflammatory chemicals that can be released by UV exposure. Astaxanthin is also being researched for its potential to help slow or reduce issues like moisture loss, rough skin, and the appearance of aging in skin.

Green bell peppers are the unripened version of their colorful red and orange counterparts. Because the ripening process hasn't finished, green bell peppers typically have less sugar and a more crisp flavor. Green bell peppers are still rich in fiber and Vitamin A, making them a healthy addition to our Greens Powder.

We include green, unroasted coffee beans in Renewable Energy because they're rich in a group of antioxidants known as chlorogenic acids that are degraded by the roasting process. These antioxidants may protect DNA from damage. Studies have shown that supplementing with green coffee may be associated with reduced triglycerides, lower blood pressure, and even a better mood.

This is a natural gum consisting of the hardened sap of various species of the acacia tree. Not only does this gum act as a carrier for organic flavors, but it's also a good source of fiber. Gum Acacia has been used for centuries in traditional Arabic medicine to heal wounds, hence its alternative name, Arabic gum.[1]

Hemicellulase is a digestive enzyme that specifically breaks up hemicellulose, a starch-based molecule that is found in cell walls. Humans don't generate hemicellulase on their own; rather, we rely on microbes in the digestive system to break up these molecules into smaller sugars. But helping to facilitate the process is important. Researchers have found that the enzymatic break down of hemicellulose increases the digestibility of your food and forms prebiotics that feed the bacteria in the microbiome.

We brighten up and round out the flavors of our collagen powder with a pinch of Himalayan pink salt. This salt hails from the Himalayan mountains in Pakistan where they have been mining salt since the 1200s. The pink color in our Himalayan salt comes from the trace minerals that are present like calcium, magnesium, and manganese.

Also known as tulsi, holy basil is a traditional herb used to support better mood and skin health. Studies suggest that holy basil is associated with healthier blood pressure and fasting blood glucose levels, which ultimately supports a healthy inflammation response and better hormonal balance.

The iron found in the Modern Multi is an amino acid chelate, which means that the iron molecule is attached to an amino acid in order to support optimal absorption by the body. Iron is a major component of hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to all parts of the body. Without enough iron, there aren't enough red blood cells to transport oxygen which can lead to fatigue and lightheadedness. Studies have shown that taking iron bisglycinate (the form found in the Modern Multi) rather than ferrous sulfate (the form of iron traditionally found in multivitamins) is associated with fewer digestive side effects.† 

Neither an artichoke nor from Jerusalem, the Jerusalem Artichoke is actually sunflower root. This root is a natural prebiotic, high in fiber–stimulating and feeding the Bifidobacteria (the good guys!) in the gut.[1]

Kale is everyone's favorite superfood, and for good reason. Kale is rich in antioxidants like beta carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. Kale is also a source of Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and potassium. One study found that people who drank kale juice daily reported higher HDL (good) cholesterol, lower LDL (bad) cholesterol, and higher selenium levels after 3 months. Kale (and all cruciferous vegetables) contains glucosinolates, which are sulfur-containing molecules that have been researched for their potential to support healthy cell growth.

Lactose is the sugar found in milk and dairy products. It's estimated that 68% of adults worldwide have lactose intolerance, which means that they don't produce enough lactase enzyme to break down lactose. Lactose intolerance can cause bloating, gas, and diarrhea after consuming dairy products. Lactase supplementation may improve the digestibility of lactose and help reduce the symptoms of lactose intolerance.

Lactobacillus acidophilus naturally occurs in the digestive tract and is one of the most commonly studied probiotic bacteria strains. It has been studied as a solution for an array of digestive issues, including reducing the symptoms of lactose intolerance and reducing abdominal pain and symptoms in individuals with IBS. Cellular studies have found that L. acidophilus may increase the presence of anti-inflammatory signaling molecules and decrease the presence of pro-inflammatory signaling molecules. L. acidophilus may support a strong immune system: in one study of children, consuming L. acidophilus in combination with B. lactis (which is also present in our probiotic powder) was associated with a shorter duration of acute respiratory infections.

Lactobacillus brevis is a probiotic commonly found in sauerkraut, pickles, and your intestines. Research suggests that L. brevis may generate chemicals called bacteriocins, which help the body resist colonization by other, harmful bacteria. L. brevis is also known for its potential to support better oral health.

One of Lactobacillus casei's superpowers is that it's great at helping maintain the strength and integrity of the intestinal wall, even in the presence of inflammatory signaling molecules. This ultimately helps the body maintain a healthy balance of inflammation. L. casei is also acid-resistant, so it survives the acidic stomach and takes up residence in the small intestines, where it benefits you the most!

Lactobacillus crispatus is one of the most commonly found bacteria in the vaginal canal. L. crispatus may be most helpful for its potential impact on the vaginal epithelial cells, which are skin-like surface cells. Studies have found that higher levels of L. crispatus may be associated with less stress in the vaginal epithelial cells and better healing of damaged epithelial cells. One study found that L. crispatus may help reduce the ability for candida to adhere to epithelial cells, potentially through an increase in regulatory T-helper molecules and the Th1 cytokine response, both beneficial inflammatory responses by the immune system to foreign invaders.

Lactobacillus fermentum is a bacterial strain normally found in the vaginal canal. The benefits of L. fermentum for vaginal health are likely through its impact on the epithelial cells, which are skin-like, surface cells in the vagina. L. fermentum may impact the adhesion of harmful microbes to the vaginal wall.

Naturally found in the intestines, Lactobacillus gasseri is an extremely acid-resistant probiotic that has been researched for its potential to support weight loss and healthy abdominal fat. Because it's acid-resistant, L. gasseri isn't destroyed by the acidic stomach environment and is able to colonize the small instestines where it can have the greatest benefits. Studies also suggest that L. gasseri can support the immune system, specifically by supporting a healthy response to allergens.

A hearty species of lactic acid bacteria often used in the fermentation of foods and is found in the human intestinal tract and mouth.

Lemon balm is an herb in the mint family that was used in ancient Greece and India as a sleep aid. Currently, the German Commission E, which specifically researches herbal products for medicinal use, recommends lemon balm to support individuals with sleep issues. And, research has investigated how consuming lemon balm may result in lower stress and anxiety levels following a stressful event.

Our lemon flavor meets the criteria for organic and non-GMO certification. All the flavor, but no puckering.

Lemon has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to cool the liver and support a healthy balance of fat in the body. We also include lemon in Appley Ever After because it's acidic and supports the benefits of apple cider vinegar with a complementary flavor.

Our lemon juice powder is 100% lemon in a powder form that's perfect for blending and mixing. We make our lemon juice powder using a process called "spray dry extraction." We start with lemon juice and then remove the moisture layer by layer with really hot air until only the powder is left. The tart lemon flavor is the perfect complement to all the greens packed into our Greens Powder!

Lipase is a digestive enzyme that helps to break down fat. Traditionally, lipases and other digestive enzymes have been derived from animal sources. But research suggests that vegetarian-based enzymes (which is what you find in our products) may be more stable over a range of acidity levels and ultimately more active than animal-based enzymes.

LuteMax® is a clinically-tested blend of carotenoids (lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin) extracted from marigolds. These carotenoids have been found to support healthy cognitive performance, better sleep, and may help protect the eyes from exposure to high-energy blue light sources like digital devices and sunlight, UV and blue light.†

Maca is a tuber that grows in Peru and has been traditionally used in the Andes to balance hormones and boost stamina. Though maca doesn't directly contain any estrogenic or hormone compounds, the plant sterols may be associated with supporting the body's natural balance of healthy hormone levels. Maca is also a good source of minerals like iron and calcium.

Magnesium is a mineral involved in over 300 chemical reactions in our bodies! Studies have examined how consuming magnesium may be associated with lower serum cortisol (which means lower stress) and higher serum melatonin (the hormone that regulates our circadium rhythm). In general, it seems magnesium may be able to relax the central nervous system. In one study, for example, when adults with insomnia took magnesium, they reported a longer sleep time and a lower score on the insomnia severity index. We use the form magnesium citrate because it's highly bioavailable.

Mangos are full of important vitamins such as vitamin C, B6, A, and more! One cup of mango provides nearly 70% of your recommended daily intake of vitamin C. They are also packed with more than a dozen types of polyphenols, which are plant compounds that function as antioxidants.[1]

Mangosteen is a purple fruit traditionally grown in Southeast Asia. The fruit (and, particularly, its skin) is rich in antioxidant compounds called xanthones. Xanthones in mangosteen may act as an anti-inflammatory through the inhibitory effects on nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2 release in the body. Mangosteen has been researched for its potential to improve skin elasticity and moisture, potentially through reducing the presence of advanced glycation endproducts, a marker of cellular inflammation.

We add a hint of maple syrup to Good as Gold to balance the more pungent flavors of the ashwagandha and reishi (and make it a delicious crowd favorite). Maple sugar is an unrefined and sustainable sweetener made by drying maple syrup. As an unrefined sweetener, maple sugar also contains trace micronutrients like calcium and magnesium that are naturally present in the maple.

Matcha is a specialized green tea from Japan that is grown in shady conditions to stimulate chlorophyll production. These bright green leaves are then ground into a powder and consumed whole. You've likely heard that green tea is good for you - and it is - particularly due to catechins like epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). Studies suggest that matcha has at least 3x the levels of EGCG compared to other green teas. The higher levels of EGCG are important because studies suggest that consuming EGCG may be associated with decreased muscle soreness after resistance training and increased VO2-max, a measure of endurance capacity. Long-term consumption of green tea or EGCG is also associated with lower BMI.

Spirulina may also support better athletic performance through its impact on oxygen utilization and lipid peroxidation.

Stevia leaves have been traditionally used in South American cultures for their sweet taste. That sweet flavor comes from steviol glycosides that are 50-400 times sweeter than sucrose and provide sweetness without the calories associated with sugar. Another benefit over sugar: it's estimated that stevia's carbon footprint is 64% lower than cane sugar's. We only use trace amounts in our products to brighten the flavor of other ingredients.

Strawberries are high in antioxidants and other phytochemicals that may benefit the body. A meta-analysis of clinical trials has shown that eating strawberries may help reduce C-reactive protein levels, a marker of inflammation in the body.

Our lecithin is pressed from dried sunflower, and is organic and non-GMO (which is in contrast to most supplements that use the often genetically-modified soy lecithin). This emulsifier helps to hold our Vitamin D tablets together. And, because it contains essential fatty acids, our lecithin has the added benefit of supporting the absorption of Vitamin D, which is a lipophilic vitamin that mixes and dissolves best with fats rather than water.

Our vitamin E is derived from sunflower. Vitamin E is an important fat-soluble antioxidant, which means it has a particular affinity for the membranes of cells and can help manage damage on the surface of cells. Studies have found that vitamin E may help regulate the inflammatory response in the skin. Through its antioxidant capability, Vitamin E may help reduce the susceptibility of the skin cells to oxidative damage from UVB rays.

We use a natural water-based enzyme process to create tapioca maltodextrin from organic, non-GMO tapioca. We love this form of maltodextrin because it's unlike common forms that are made from GMO corn or wheat treated with heat and acids. Molecularly, maltodextrin is a polysaccharide made from naturally occurring starches in food. We use our tapioca version to help prevent caking in the process of forming the tablet.

There's a group of carbohydrates sandwiched between simple sugars (monosaccharides) and starches (polysaccharides) called oligosaccharides. Oligosaccharides are a prebiotic, meaning they act as food for the bacteria in the digestive system. Oligosaccharides are a particularly potent nutrient source for the bifidobacterium found in our probiotic powder. Our oligosaccharides come naturally from tapioca, which is a starch extracted from the Cassava root.

Tapioca is a starch extracted from the Cassava root, native to South America. Being naturally high in dietary fiber, it functions as a great prebiotic, which is what fuels the good bacteria in your gut.

Prunus cerasus (sour cherry, tart cherry, or dwarf cherry) is a species of cherry native to much of Europe and southwest Asia. We love Tart cherry for the anthocyanin antioxidants it provides.

Valerian was used in ancient Roman and Greek as a cure for insomnia, and recent scientific research suggests it still may be useful for that purpose. Some research suggests that valerian may improve sleep quality through a reduction in cortical excitability, meaning it can relax your brain's response to stimuli. Other research has found that when humans are placed in high-pressure situations, consuming valerian may result in a smaller increase in systolic blood pressure and lower perceived stress.

Our vegan capsules are made from a plant fiber called hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). HPMC is a safe, plant-based alternative to capsules made from gelatin. Studies also suggest that HPMC capsules tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions and help your supplements may stay fresher, longer.

Our vegan capsules are made from pullulan, which is a plant-based polysaccharide derived from the Aureobasidium pullulans fungi. Pullulan is biodegradable and made without any other additives or fillers. Compared to animal-based capsules, pullulan resists oxygen very effectively, which means the the powder inside is kept fresher for longer - so you can enjoy all the benefits inside the capsule!

Pancreatin is a combination of lipases (enzymes that break down fat) and proteases (enzymes that break down protein). Our pancreatin is vegan-friendly. Vegan/vegetarian pancreatin has been found to be effective both in the high-acidity environment of the stomach and the more basic environment of the intestines, so you get support throughout the digestive system.

Methylcobalamin is the bioactive form of B12 that is used in the body. Many supplements use a form of B12 called Cyanocobalamin which the body still needs to convert to Methylcobalamin. It’s estimated that 30% of the population do not have the ability to make this conversion - making our Methylcobalamin a much more effective way to get your B12! We source our vegan and non-GMO Methylcobalamin from bacteria instead of animal sources.

Lichens are a complex life form consisting of a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and an alga. Lichens are a rare, plant-based source of Vitamin D3, the biologically active form of vitamin D. Most Vitamin D supplements are either animal-based or include the cheaper Vitamin D2. Studies have shown that Vitamin D3 may be more effective than D2 in raising and maintaining healthy serum Vitamin D levels.
