Prep

Summer can never be long enough for most children, so any thoughts about returning to school are likely unwelcome. Fortunately, it’s parents or guardians who are responsible for all of the preparation required to send kids back to school. Otherwise, it might never happen.

Along with scheduling, clothing and school-accessory buying, facing the daily challenge of ensuring students get wholesome nutrition is a must. It’s essential for growing bodies and minds. And supplemental nutrition from AIM can enhance that growth.

Whether or not a child is a picky eater, whole-food drinks made with BarleyLife Xtra Apple-Cherry or Pineapple and CoCoa LeafGreens are likely to be a tasty hit with kids of all ages. Most importantly, all three make nutritious beverages that can help contribute to a child’s health.

Both BarleyLife Xtra flavors contain 18 fruit and vegetable powders, and the primary ingredient is barley leaf juice powder. Of course, giving children BarleyLife from an early age makes it easier for kids to grow up loving the taste. But just in case, having the naturally of the most nutrient-dense plants on the planet.

Not many kids will turn up their noses at cocoa beverages. Drinks made with CoCoa LeafGreens include concentrated plant nutrition from a variety of sources, including arugula, kale and spinach. Serving these vegetables on a plate may be rejected by children, but blended into chocolaty drinks delivers them in a welcoming way.

There are more AIM products that provide back-to-school and beyond benefits for students, including CalciAIM and FloraFood. Help them be prepared with AIM nutrition.

Did You Know . . . ?

Digesting protein bumps up your metabolism and the burning of calories. Pea protein is absorbed at a rate of 2.9 grams per hour, contributing to an accelerated metabolism and calorie burning over several hours.

Burn more calories than your daily nutritional intake. Drinking a ProPeas beverage up to three times a day helps reduce your caloric intake. With only 60 calories per serving, ProPeas makes you feel satiated for hours. Why? Pea protein is digested slowly, which increases levels of endocrine hormones that send “I’m full!” signals to your brain. Not feeling hungry makes you eat and drink less.
