Often times, this is the only way to add any real nutritional value to your purchase. At RBC Life, we have many popular “boosts” to choose from. We believe these products are the foundation of a truly nutrient-rich, beneficial smoothie. Spirulina – Since 1996, we have been leading the way in educating the world about Spirulina, proudly continuing in the legacy of Dr. Christopher Hills. Spirulina is a unique blue-green algae, and it contains an incredible array of nutrients, deeming it “Nature’s Miracle Food.” It’s a miracle we have been sharing with the world, through your efforts, and it has changed countless lives. Spirulina is 70% protein and contains all the essential amino acids, making it a unique vegan source of complete protein. Its protein is 95% digestible compared to meat sources which are estimated to be only 20% digestible. With abundant chlorophyll, Spirulina helps cleanse the body of the toxins and heavy metals we are exposed to every day. Spirulina is a wonderful protein boost to any fruit smoothie. TruAloe® – TruAloe is a delicious berry flavored Aloe vera juice brought to you by the “Father of Aloe” himself - our Founder, Clinton Howard. TruAloe provides powerful support to the immune system and is an excellent tonic for the entire digestive system. With its delicious berry flavor and natural sweetness from Monk fruit, TruAloe is the perfect addition to any fruit smoothie. It contains only organically-grown Aloe carefully processed to ensure that you receive all the true health benefits of this amazing plant. Mix and match ingredients and then share your favorite recipes with some friends. A homemade smoothie is more cost effective than going out and, especially with RBC Life products, provides you a healthy experience that feels as good as it tastes! Green Phyto-Power – Green Phyto-Power is a rich source of concentrated nutrients often not found in our normal diet. It contains green foods, vegetables, fruits and sea plants rich in natural enzymes, trace elements, antioxidants, phytonutrients, and amino acids. Nutrition experts agree that the body needs more green vegetables. That is why RBC Life developed Green Phyto-Power, giving you a convenient way to consume more of the green vegetables you and your family need. With 19 organic, nutrient-dense foods, Green Phyto-Power offers a convenient source of the whole foods your body needs for optimal health. It contains cruciferous vegetables, which play a role in hormone health, and super fruits like acai berry and antioxidant-rich cherries. Adding a scoop of Green Phyto-Power to your smoothie can help your body cleanse, detoxify, and rebuild at the cellular level. OliViva® – OliViva is an antioxidant drink made from freshly harvested olive leaves, Aloe vera, and KonaRed™ fruit. Our fresh olive leaves are processed within hours to retain the naturally active polyphenols and phytonutrients. OliViva provides the incredible antioxidant power of fresh olive leaf along with other legendary botanicals to give you a healthy boost of energy, stronger immunity, and the benefits of one of the most heart protective nutrients available.* OliViva’s ORAC score (antioxidant power) is over 119,000 units per bottle - higher than most other nutritional juices on the market. With one ounce of OliViva, you receive the antioxidant potency of more than 14 servings of fruits and vegetables! *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food & Drug Administration.
