Due to their high fiber content (more than 35%), Omega3 Chia Seeds have the remarkable ability to absorb ten times their weight in water, making them an excellent source of hydration. Omega3 Chia’s fiber forms a gel that slows the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream, binds to toxins in the digestive system, and helps eliminate waste.*

Chia is the richest and only unprocessed whole food source of pure Omega3. A member of the mint family, Chia is native to Central America and has been used traditionally for over 3,000 years. Ancient Aztec warriors prized Chia as an endurance-promoting Superfood, eating it in bread just before battle and drinking it in water before running long distances.*

Omega3 Chia Seeds are especially rich in essential fatty acids. One 15 gram serving provides more than 3 grams of Omega-3 (as alpha-linolenic acid) and 1 gram of Omega-6 (linoleic acid) in a perfectly balanced 3:1 ratio, making them the richest unprocessed and fully-digestible whole food source of Omega3.*

Because they are loaded with high-ORAC antioxidants like quercetin, caffeic acid, and chlorogenic acid, Omega3 Chia Seeds maintain a 99% sprout rate and have a shelf life of up to five years. Furthermore, Chia seeds are rich in calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron, and zinc, as well as trace minerals and biologically complete protein, making them the perfect survival food.*

Omega-3 Chia’s health benefits are the subject of an intense study currently being conducted by the Nutritional Science Research Institute in cooperation with Dr. David Neiman of Appalachian State University. NSRI’s randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trial, due to be published in the Summer of 2008, is exploring Omega3 Chia’s sugar stabilizing, weight control properties and the conversion of ALA to EPA and DHA in healthy, non-diabetic subjects.

Greens Plus has joined with NSRI to make this Ancient yet Powerful New Superfood available to the market. Omega3 Chia is certified kosher and is pesticide, herbicide, gluten, and GMO-free.

A Little Greens Plus Background

Greens Plus was formulated in 1990 by Sam Graci after five years of research into the health-giving benefits of the world's most nutritious superfoods. As an adolescent psychologist in the late seventies, Sam worked with Down Syndrome children, kids diagnosed with ADD, and problematic teenagers in the Canadian Educational System. Having a keen interest in nutrition and knowing intuitively the importance of food to the health of individuals, Sam observed the diets of children and began experimenting with vitamin/mineral and whole food supplementation. Immediate improvements in the children's energy levels, attention spans, mental acuity, and overall sense of well being were observed.*

Realizing the full potential of whole food concentrates and their superiority over synthetic vitamins and minerals, Sam was inspired to formulate Greens Plus by his sister-in-law Lani Deauville. Vice-President of Orange Peel Enterprises, Inc., Lani injured her 4th, 5th, and 6th cervical vertebrae in a diving accident in 1958. At the age of seventeen, she was diagnosed with quadriplegia and given five years to live. Determined to beat the odds, Lani went on to continue her education, teach psychology and help others with disabilities. Due to her severe injury, however, she suffered many years with poor health, a weakened immune system, and an uncertain life expectancy.

In 1985, Sam prepared a green drink for Lani. She gave him suggestions for making it tastier, but the response of her immune system became his primary focus. After five years of trial and error, Sam perfected the Greens Plus formula and Lani now enjoys a life full of energy and good health. In 1991, Lani and her husband Jude began distributing Greens Plus, first to their family and friends and later to health food stores, health care professionals, national pharmacies, and overseas to nineteen countries worldwide.

Over the last five years, Greens Plus has accumulated 9 international awards for product quality, integrity and effectiveness.


Nothing But Quality

Greens Plus is conscientiously blended and bottled by hand in the USA following extraordinarily strict Good Manufacturing Practices. It is a 100% natural blend of 29 nutrient-rich Superfoods, Sea Vegetables and High-Energy Herbal Extracts. One serving of Greens Plus delivers more organic vitamins, essential minerals, live enzymes, and high-ORAC antioxidants than 5 full servings of fresh fruits and vegetables and provides every vibrant color in the dietary food spectrum, as recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture.

Greens Plus contains only the finest, 100% natural, premium quality and organically-grown ingredients, and is certified pesticide and herbicide-free. Greens Plus bottles are nitrogen flushed to remove all oxygen. The bottle contains both moisture and oxygen absorbent packets to ensure maximum freshness.

For over fifteen years, Greens Plus has exceeded industry standards through our commitment to using the purest ingredients, precise manufacturing practices, and detailed laboratory analysis. Greens Plus Energy and Protein Bars are made by hand, using only 100% natural superfoods. Organic ingredients such as medjool dates and almond butter are mixed with the award-winning Greens Plus powder and cold-pressed into bars, avoiding both heat and friction that can destroy vital nutrients. Once enrobed in tempered dark chocolate and carefully cooled, the bars are nitrogen-wrapped, boxed, and prepared for shipment to consumers around the world.

Green Plus, Everyday

People feel better and are healthier when they take Greens Plus daily. Testimonials received by thousands of satisfied users are proof enough that Greens Plus helps increase energy levels and supports the proper function of the immune system. Backed by numerous clinical studies, the ingredients in Greens Plus have also been shown to improve mental acuity, gently cleanse the gastrointestinal system, and restore a healthy pH balance to the human body.*

When mixed in pure water, just one daily serving of Greens Plus provides the nutritional equivalent of two servings of fruit and three servings of vegetables. With Greens Plus, it's never been easier to eat your five daily servings required to prevent degenerative disease.*

Being recognized as the most award-winning supplement in North American history is an advantage, but the real plus is in the extra steps taken to make the best green food product on the market. By combining the most potent green foods with organically-grown soy sprouts, non-GMO lecithin, royal jelly, bee pollen, probiotic cultures and high-energy herbal extracts, Greens Plus contains a greater spectrum of phytonutrients and potential health benefits than simple green drinks deliver.*

The 3 Essentials Of Life: Clean Air, Pure Water And Superfoods

We all want to believe the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat is clean, pure and safe. But all too often we take the three most essential requirements of life for granted. We can survive only weeks without good food, days without pure water, and just a few moments without clean air.

The Environmental Protection Agency has warned us that indoor air has more than 10 times the pollutant concentration of the great outdoors. People spend as much as 90 percent of their time inside the home and office. Countless scientific studies have proven that air pollution and “sick building syndrome” are the most common sources of toxic chemicals and bacteria and that mold and mildew cause a wide-range of immune disorders, asthma, and sinus-related allergies.*

The United States enjoys one of the best supplies of drinking water in the world. Nevertheless, the EPA admits that many Americans drink tap water contaminated with fecal bacteria, heavy metals such as lead, chlorine, and other cancer-causing chemicals. We know that 75% of the human body is water and interestingly, 75% of all Americans are chronically dehydrated.*

The EPA keeps dossiers on over 90,000 chemical pesticides and herbicides applied to food crops in the United States alone. Their extensive use leaves unsafe residue on fruits, vegetables and grains, and inevitably ends up contaminating rainfall, rivers, and municipal water supplies. More than 3,000 new synthetic chemical compounds are introduced into the environment every year. These chemicals have been shown to have serious life-threatening consequences on developing children and human enzyme and endocrine systems, and are directly linked to most types of cancer. Not to mention the introduction and unknown potential of genetically-modified organisms (GMO’s), our food supply faces an ever present and growing danger. If you can only do one thing for your health today, make it Greens Plus. For added health benefits, get plenty of sleep, drink more water, and reduce or eliminate refined sugars and caffeine (except green tea).*
