BarleyLife

Innovations in night harvesting, cold processing and spray drying of barley grass have created the most nutritionally beneficial BarleyLife to date.

Young barley leaves are remarkably rich in nutritious and functional ingredients that include natural vitamins, minerals, enzymes, chlorophyll, antioxidants and phytonutrients.

BarleyLife captures this vast array of plant-based components in a leaf juice powder.

The Oxidative Stress Reducer

Excess production of free radicals called reactive oxygen species overwhelms antioxidant defense, creating oxidative stress. This results in damage to DNA, cells, organs, etc. Superoxide dismutase is both an enzyme and a powerful antioxidant that defends the body against free radicals, particularly reactive oxygen species. BarleyLife is a super source of superoxide dismutase.

Around 75 percent of the chlorophyll content in plants is type A—the primary pigment that captures sunlight for photosynthesis. Accounting for the other 25 percent, chlorophyll B is an accessory pigment that passes collected sunlight to chlorophyll A. Both chlorophyll A and B have antioxidant properties.

No Double Dipping!

Harvesting crops of young barley leaves from only one seeding ensures their optimal nutritive value in BarleyLife.

Each 4-gram serving of BarleyLife contains 22 mg of chlorophyll. At the core of every chlorophyll molecule is magnesium.

Chlorophyll NOT Chlorophyllin

Many supplements that claim to provide chlorophyll actually contain chlorophyllin: a semi-synthetic concoction of sodium copper salts derived from chlorophyll. BarleyLife delivers the real thing: natural plant chlorophyll.

The Sweet Choice

Protective Antioxidants

It’s easier to get some people to enjoy the nutritional benefits of barley grass when you sweeten the offer. Only 1 gram of naturally existing sugar from plantsourced ingredients gives BarleyLife Xtra its sweetness without any added sugar.

Fruits and vegetables contain a diverse number of plant-based antioxidants that guard against damage from free radicals.

Garden Trio

Whole-food Nutrition

The Garden Trio provides three powerhouses of plant nutrients–barley leaves, carrots and beets–in concentrated juice powders of three whole foods: BarleyLife, Just Carrots

Modern farming practices have lowered nutrient levels in the soil. These days, a harvest of carrots or beets is likely to contain fewer vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, etc. than they did decades ago.1 Just Carrots and RediBeets offer an optimal source of the beneficial nutrients found in carrots and beets that are grown using organic farming practices.

Juice powders give you convenient access to easily absorbed plant-based nourishment. Easy on the digestive system, the Garden Trio delivers superfood powders for supplemental

Each serving of the Garden Trio provides 3 grams of plant protein.

If you tried to eat barley grass, its incredible source of nutrients would be wasted by your lack of an enzyme that breaks down the protective fiber. AIM found a way to turn barley grass into a powder that is bursting with unique green nutrition.

It’s Your Choice!

You can take the Garden Trio in a drink that contains one, two or all three whole-food concentrates. It’s a mix-and-match choice of beverages, according to your taste and mood.

Teamwork makes any job at hand more effective. The teamwork effected by taking FloraFood probiotics and Fit ’n Fiber prebiotics increases your microbiome’s healthy population of good bacteria while providing the specific food that feeds them.

The Food Factor

Survival Skills

The human strain of Lactobacillus gasseri in FloraFood has the muchneeded ability to survive the acidic journey through the stomach. Further ensuring survival is L. gasseri’s capability of adhering to the small intestine’s microvilli— tiny, bristlelike protrusions. Otherwise, these good bacteria would be unable to repopulate your gut and simply be eliminated.

The good bacteria in your gut are living organisms that require nutrition from specific types of fiber called prebiotics. Fit ’n Fiber’s ingredients include three types of prebiotic fiber, providing nutrition that keeps good bacteria alive and fuels their healthy functions for your body.

The Weight-Loss Factor

The Human Factor

Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium longum strains are naturally occurring bacteria in the human gut, so increasing their presence by taking FloraFood is a natural way to increase their benefits for balancing your body pH and promoting optimal digestion.

Fit ’n Fiber is AIM’s recommended dietary fiber supplement for healthy weight management. FloraFood delivers three strains of good bacteria that a 2021 study published in Nutrients associated with the best results in reducing body weight. Taken together, Fit ’n Fiber and FloraFood create a synbiotic relationship in your gut, the benefits of which include healthy weight loss. bit.ly/WeightLossStudy2021

BioVivify can enhance the health of your skin, hair and nails with a combination of six replenishing ingredients: astaxanthin, L-proline, glycine, L-lysine, biotin (vitamin B7) and vitamin C. It represents AIM’s very first nutricosmetic, an ingestible health product that enhances the function and appearance of hair, nails and skin from the inside out.

Astaxanthin

Collagen’s Amino Acids and Vitamin C

Collagen is a protein that plays a pivotal role in skin structure and function. The amino acids L-proline, glycine and L-lysine and vitamin C are essential for the synthesis of collagen. The alpha-chain structures in collagen require the presence of L-proline and glycine while vitamin C is a cofactor in the hydroxylation of alpha chains, providing structure for collagen. L-lysine contributes to collagen’s tensile strength.

Salmon vs. BioVivify

Pronounced asta-ZAN-thin, astaxanthin is BioVivify’s primary ingredient. This potent antioxidant is a redpigmented member of the carotenoid family that is derived from non-GMO, freshwater microalgae using a solvent-free extraction method. It is then isolated and concentrated into the finest source available: AstaReal® Astaxanthin.

In the USA, the average yearly intake of astaxanthin from salmon is only 11 mg. One container of BioVivify provides 180 mg of astaxanthin!

BioVivify’s inclusion of vitamin B7, also known as biotin, can stimulate the production of keratin in your hair and increase the rate of hair follicle growth.

For additional hair, skin and nail benefits, take AIMega and BarleyLife along with BioVivify.

The Astaxanthin-Vitamin C Connection

Fibroblasts are specialized cells that synthesize collagen. Working synergistically, astaxanthin and vitamin C optimally protect fibroblasts from the oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS), a type of free radical that contains oxygen.

AIMega gives you a plant-based source of omega-3 and -6. These two essential fatty acids that your body cannot produce are an essential part of your dietary intake. AIMega’s ingredients also include heart-healthy omega-9 and energizing medium-chain triglycerides.

AIMega: Cold-Pressed, Virgin Oils from Flax, Sunflower and Sesame Seeds and Olives ─

All Organic

AIMega’s omega-3 essential fatty acids come from the seeds of a flowering plant known as flax, one of the richest sources of omega-3 in the form of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).

bit.ly/Plant-BasedOmega-3

Converting Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA)

It has been suggested that plant-based sources of omega-3 are not easily converted from the form of ALA to DHA and EPA, which are typically marine-based. However, a study measuring the omega-3 intakes of 14,422 men and women between the ages of 30 and 78 revealed surprising results. Compared to fish- and meat-eating participants, women who consumed vegan diets had significantly more long-chain omega-3 essential fatty acids (DHA and EPA) in their blood, which is evidence of the conversion of their plant-sourced, short-chain fatty acids (ALA).

bit.ly/Omega3Vegans

Too much dietary intake of omega-6 creates an imbalance in relation to omega-3. Nevertheless, omega-6 is an essential nutrient. It just needs to come from healthy sources in sufficient amounts. AIMega delivers a 2:1 ratio of omega-3 and -6 from organic, plant-based oils to help maintain a healthy balance of these essential nutrients.

CalciAIM powder mixes easily into beverages that deliver a drinkable source of calcium along with nutrients that help your body to assimilate this essential mineral.

Key CalciAIM Ingredients

• Calcium

• Vitamin D

• L-lysine

• Zinc

As the most abundant mineral in your body, calcium accounts for 1 to 2 percent of your body weight. Your bones and teeth contain 99 percent of the total amount of calcium. The remaining 1 percent is integral to blood vessel, heart, nerve and muscle function, hormone secretion and blood coagulation.

bit.ly/Calcium1

Your body depends on the presence of vitamin D to absorb and utilize calcium. In fact, one of the major functions of vitamin D is to maintain calcium balance. You can depend on CalciAIM to deliver this vitamin-mineral combination to support bone health and overall wellness.

Calcium

Daily Adequate Intake

• Magnesium

• Vitamin C

• Copper

Calcium is an essential nutrient that your body cannot produce, so it must continuously be sourced from dietary intake. Otherwise, calcium deficiency can be an issue for people of all ages.

CranVerry+

The cranberry extract in CranVerry+ contains the whole fruit and nothing but the fruit, so from the outside skin to the inner seeds you get whole cranberry nutrition and the benefits it delivers, particularly for urinary tract health.

Cranberry sauce is traditionally a Thanksgiving side dish in America and Canada, but research published this year suggests that this scarlet red fruit should be a regular part of dietary intake as a food or a supplement. Why? Benefits for both cardiovascular and brain health from cranberry polyphenols that include proanthocyanidins, anthocyanins and flavonols.

Proanthocyanidin Power

Many plants contain natural, chemical compounds called proanthocyanidins that protect them from potential predators, including plant-eating mammals, invasive insects and microbial pathogens. It turns out that proanthocyanidins consumed from a plant-based diet provide inner protection and health benefits for the human body. The unique A-type found in cranberries are a protective example of proanthocyanidin power.
