 Veggie Magma
Yoshihide Hagiwara, M.D., found that "young barley grass is one of
the most nutritionally balanced foods in nature." With Veggie Magma™,
we've combined 16 nutritious vegetables with barley grass juice to create
a nutrient-rich vegetable juice powder containing antioxidants, active
enzymes, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and chlorophyll and many other
important phytonutrients.
Ingredients
Powdered juice from organically-grown young Barley Grass*, Maltodextrin (a
complex carbohydrate), Alfalfa juice, Carrot juice, Tomato juice, Celery
juice, Dried Spinach, Cilantro Juice, Broccoli Juice, Broccoli Sprout
Juice, Dried Green Pepper, Cucumber juice, Dried Kale, Red Beet juice,
Shiitake extract, Ginger root extract, Dried Garlic, Aloe Vera.
* Certified organically grown and processed in accordance with the
California Organic Foods Act of 1990.
Contains no added sugar, salt, colorings or fillers and free of animal
products, gluten, soy, wheat, and yeast.
Suggested Use
Dissolve two teaspoons into an 8 oz. glass of water or your favorite
juice. Do not mix with hot liquids since heat will neutralize active
enzymes. Recommended once or twice daily on an empty stomach (20 minutes
before a meal). Keep tightly closed after opening and store in a cool, dry
place.
The following are brief descriptions of Veggie Magma's ingredients:
Alfalfa: Nutrient rich vitamins A D, E, and K, phosphorous, iron,
potassium, magnesium and calcium. Also rich in trace minerals and its
alkalinity helps the body assimilate proteins. It contains a group of
compound known as saponins which lower blood levels of cholesterol by
combining with fats in the digestive tract, thereby allowing the body to
excrete them.
Aloe Vera contains calcium, potassium, sodium, manganese, iron, zinc, and
lecithin. Aloe Vera also has twenty of twenty-two amino acids, including
ten essential amino acids.
Barley Grass is alkaline and abundant in vitamins, minerals, amino acids,
and active enzymes. Its deep green color is due to its large amount of
natural chlorophyll, a well-known cleanser and deodorizer. Superoxide
dismutase, an enzyme important in neutralizing free radicals in our cells,
is found in large amounts in barley grass. Barley grass is also rich in
potassium, calcium and magnesium and, by weight, it has more vitamin C
than oranges and more iron than spinach.
Broccoli contains sulforaphane, which may have antimutagenic properties.
Broccoli is also a rich source of carotenoids, vitamin C, and folate.
Broccoli Sprouts have recently been found by scientists at Johns Hopkins
University to contain 30-50 times more sulforaphane than mature broccoli.
Sulforaphane belongs to a class of phytochemicals known as isothiocyanates,
which are known to strongly stimulate the body's natural detoxifying
enzymes.
Carrots are one the best sources of alpha- and beta-carotene, two
antioxidants that inhibit free radical formation. These two carotenoids
also are used by the body to produce vitamin A. Carrots contain moderate
amounts of glutathione, a compound that helps to recycle vitamin E and has
been shown to increase the body's production of white blood cells. Carrots
are also known to strengthen the eyes.
Celery is plentiful in vitamins A and C, calcium, folic acid, and
potassium.
Garlic contains allylic sulfides which may possess antimutagenic
properties, enhance immune function and offer cardiovascular protection.
Allylic sulfides have also been found to inhibit fungal parasite growth,
as well as reduce both cholesterol levels and blood platelet adhesion.
Similar to cruciferous vegetables, garlic stimulates liver detoxification
enzymes and helps to counteract microbial toxins.
Ginger Root stimulates digestion and acts as an antioxidant preventing
lipid peroxidation.
Green Pepper contains vitamin C and has antimicrobial properties.
Kale, like broccoli, contains sulforaphane and other isothiocyanates. It
also contains a rich variety of nutrients and phytochemicals - four times
as much beta-carotene as broccoli, more vitamin C than oranges, the
highest concentration of lutein (a carotenoid antioxidant), and high
amounts of antioxidant bioflavonoids, known to be important for
cardiovascular health.
Maltodextrin is not a simple sugar but a complex carbohydrate that
protects enzymes and other phytonutrients in Veggie Magma from oxidation
and degradation. It does not cause rapid changes in blood sugar levels and
is, therefore, safe for diabetics.
Red Beets are alkaline, contain high amounts of phosphorous and potassium,
and stimulate digestion.
Shiitake Mushroom contains the anti-mutagen polysaccharide, lentinin, and
has a high concentration of vitamin B complex, including vitamin B12 (a B
vitamin that may be lacking in vegetarian diets). Other compounds in
Shiitake may help lower cholesterol.
Spinach is high in blood-building iron, chlorophyll, folic acid, and
beta-carotene and has moderate amounts of the antioxidant glutathione.
Tomatoes are a rich source of lycopene, an antioxidant caroteniod.
Tomatoes also contain high amounts of vitamin C, potassium, folic acid,
beta-carotene, gamma-carotene, glutathione, bioflavonoids and other
phytonutrients important for good health.
