Its raw greens also increase body alkalinity & reduce acidity to restore healthy pH, which lessens disease & inflammation.
Your get-up-and-go got up and went?
How do you maintain your energy and increase your focus to function at full capacity? It’s tough for anyone to be able to do this all day long. Most of us need a pick-me-up, especially as we age. If you’ve considered reducing your coffee or cola intake and are looking for a replacement, PURE GREEN ENERGY offers these helpful ingredients:
Star Components
- Red Beet Juice Powder:Studies show Beetroot juice boosts stamina and reduces oxygen uptake by the body, making exercise less tiring. How? Beetroot’s component called nitrate turns into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide helps increase blood flow & cells’ mitochondrial efficiency, which reduces oxygen requirements. (The fitter you are, the less oxygen is expended during activities.) Study: It may help athletes exercise 16% longer because it improves cardio performance and strengthens muscle contractions.
- Coconut MCT:Coconut oil’s fatty acids offer a quick energy boost because they’re immediately converted to fuel for use by the body. Their small particle size allows far easier digestion so it’s directly sent to the liver, not stored like other saturated fats. These medium chain triglycerides (MCT) only have to go through a 3-step process to be turned into energy vs. other fats that go through a 26-step process! Coconut oil, with 60-65% of fat being MCT, is one of the best sources. MCT (medium chain triglycerides including caprylic acid, lauric acid, capric acid) are one of the top-rated beneficial fats according to USDA nutrient database. Over 1,500 studies prove coconut oil’s benefits that include building muscle, producing longer sustained energy, burning fat and increasing metabolism. It may also improve brain function by fueling brain cells more efficiently.
- Maca:Known for centuries to increase energy, stamina and strength, this Peruvian superfood nourishes muscles and joints, and it optimizes hormone levels. Maca especially balances your adrenal glands which control energy levels, mental/physical stress & fatigue. That means it helps your body cope. The root vegetable is rich in plant sterols, iron, calcium, selenium, phosphorous, magnesium and fibre, and has a nutty caramel-like taste. It contains all essential amino acids so is good to consume pre- or post-workout. Research shows it may help athletes gain muscle, increase strength and improve exercise performance. (One study found it helped cyclists improve their time in a 40-km ride after 14 days of supplementing with maca.)
- Matcha:Why is matcha tea different than other teas? It contains the whole raw camellia sinensis leaf with all of its health-enhancing ingredients, and is not steeped with high heat, which increases the tea leaf’s caffeine and tannic acid. ALSO: Matcha tea’s unique L-theanine, an amino acid, has a relaxing effect that counteracts caffeine jitteriness without reducing increased alertness. Matcha’s super high antioxidants slow the body’s absorption of caffeine resulting in a gentle increase & longer period of alertness with no end “crash.” PURE GREEN ENERGY is therefore completely natural, and does NOT contain the extracted, condensed trimethylxanthine (caffeine) chemical added to energy drinks. Enerex’s energy-booster contains less than 1/6 amount of caffeine that is in 1 cup of steeped matcha green tea or brewed coffee per serving (only 5.8 mg caffeine).
- Raw Green Juice Powder:Pure Green Energy includes our trademark blend of pure, raw, certified organic Alfalfa, Kamut Grass, Barley Grass, Oat Grass & Spirulina for chlorophyll, plant protein & live enzymes. These cold-pressed greens are sourced from soil-rich volcanic hillsides on organic United States farms, making them higher quality than other sources. Green Kamut® juice powder, for example, has 25% more protein, 148% more calcium, and 50% more iron than wheatgrass. These greens are NOT fibre-dense whole plant powders, but are juiced, offering superior taste, nutrient density and alkalinity for the body. These are far more costly and beneficial when juiced (and then powdered) rather than just drying the whole plant that still contains substantial indigestible fibre. They’re 3rd party tested & verified Gluten Free; grasses are cut before gluten develops.
- PURE GREEN ENERGY Additions: We added Cracked Chia seeds for their mega-protein, omega-3 fats and beneficial fibre. Chia means “strength” in the Mayan language because just a spoonful sustained warriors for long distances in battle. Modern research shows they help to build bones & muscles, and support the heart. Chlorella, nutrient-dense algae that’s 60% complete protein, has received a lot of buzz for its health benefits that include detoxification & keeping blood pressure in check. It also has iron, vitamin B12, calcium and antioxidants needed for energy & exercise. Superfood blueberries have been added for extra antioxidants! Their phytonutrients boost energy, brain function and immunity.
- Probiotics:The Friendly Trio® is scientifically proven for a healthy digestive system. Professional-grade The Friendly Trio requires no refrigeration. Its potent good bacteria feature 3 human strains: Lactobacillicus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium longum. These maintain a healthy gastrointestinal tract, help the body absorb foods’ nutrients, make certain vitamins (like vitamin K), and fight invading bad bacteria. The Friendly Trio® contains 1.25 billion live probiotic organisms.

Product Review: Hemp Herbals Entourage
For many years most scientists, believed that cannabis sativa was the only plant able to produce cannabinoids that activate the endocannabinoid system. Thanks to research in the last few years we now know cannabis is not the only plant that produces life-enhancing cannabinoids! In fact, just about every clinical study related to the health benefits of Cannabis sativa has also been done on its power-packed cousin, Nigella sativa, with similar powerful results! Ingredients: Nigella sativa (Black Seed) Oil, Cannabis sativa (Hemp) Oil, Copaifera officinalis (Copaiba) Oil, Humulus lupulus (Hops) Oil, Helichrysum italicum (Helichrysum) Oil, Curcuma longa (Turmeric) Oil, Piper nigrum (Black Pepper) Oil, Mentha piperita (Peppermint) Oil.

Face to Face
We live in an age of much concern over “Fake News”, and misleading online promotions, particularly regarding Health Care, especially Skin Care. How does one verify information concerning Skin Care? Simple: Seek a Face to Face consultation with a Proper Dermatologist, full FRCP(C), not just an online “diploma”. Even then however, you need to check their field of interest. Some Dermatologists have lasers and an interest in Cosmetic Dermatology, some only do medical (ie MSP Dermatology), and others will do their own surgeries. All FRCP(C) Dermatologists will have had years of training in Medical Dermatology. Usually the Dermatologist’s own website will advise you of their particular fields of interest/expertise, if no website, phone their office!
Rhythm from the Inside Out
Digestion, blood pumping through our veins, and breathing are just a few of the functional rhythms inside us that we rely upon to live. When we are unwell, we sometimes say that we are feeling ‘out of sorts’ or ‘out of sync’; it is a bit like losing one’s rhythm. We know when we have found it again because we feel more ‘in the groove’. Music therapy can be helpful in re-discovering that intrinsic rhythm when retrieving it ourselves is a struggle (as with mood and social cognitive disorders; rehabilitation from brain injury, stroke, or heart attack; cerebral palsy; Huntington’s disease; etc.).
Reflecting on Financial Goals
October is a time for reflection as we give thanks for family, friends, and treasured moments. With summer spending over and the holiday season just around the corner, it’s also a great time to review the progress of your short-term (obtainable within the next year) and long-term (obtainable after a year or more) financial goals. Do you need to add short-term goals like saving for travel expenses over the holidays? Or has a raise enabled you to save more towards long-term goals like retirement? Reflecting on these goals will not only help improve your monthly budget, but will inspire you to see if your goals have changed throughout the year.
When You’re Missing Teeth
Missing teeth due to an accident, genetics, disease, and other reasons can cause patients to experience various problems. People’s confidence can decrease from having teeth missing from their smile because they feel more self-conscious and insecure. Missing teeth can also cause people to chew differently, which may mean they are not breaking up food properly. This can result in choking problems, digestive problems, and issues with their jaw. Infections can develop in those who are missing teeth if bacteria collect in those areas, and speech can also be negatively affected. The good news is that the right dentures can eliminate these problems.
The Arts Help Kids Heal
How does a child cope with a distressing family situation? Or with being bullied? How does a child manage his anxiety? Expressive arts therapy offers children a creative approach to addressing life’s challenges. Your child picks up a paint brush, a puppet or a drum and the session begins. Expressive therapies is about “letting it out”. Being angry or hurt isn’t always easy for a child to put into words. To paint, dance or drum the anger is a lot easier. Discover how the healing possibilities for your child through creative expression can be life-changing.
Recognize Gratitude
October in Canada encourages us to think about being thankful. Indeed, gratitude is a common inclusion in counselling and self-help resources. It is well documented that recognizing what we are grateful for makes us feel better; and it can last a while, too!. Is gratitude simply declaring and appreciating that our situation is better for a reason? Or is it actually the act of receiving something? Or is gratitude in the emotional realm along with indescribable unconditional love? Perhaps not answered yet, but whatever and wherever it is, genuinely acknowledging gratitude is good for our mental health and wellness. Thanks!
Your ear is ringing
Tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, is a symptom, not a disease. Causes include: exposure to loud noises, ear wax blockage, and reaction to medications, but it can also be caused by hearing loss. When you address the hearing loss, you can also remedy the tinnitus if a hearing aid is prescribed, as it can help reduce the perception of the ringing and discomfort. If you have ringing in your ears you should let a doctor know and have a hearing test to see if there is hearing loss as well.
