Description

Fruit and Vegetable Essentials arms your body with the goodness and benefits of whole, raw fruits and vegetables so that you can consistently receive the nutrients you may lack from your diet by not eating the recommended amounts each day. No single fruit or vegetable contains all the essential nutrients our body requires for optimal health. Fruit & Vegetable Essentials conveniently ensures that you and your family obtain each day a wide variety of plant nutrients, often referred to as "eating the colors of the rainbow." These vital supplements are provided in a convenient duo-pack: one bottle of Fruit Essentials together with one bottle of Vegetable Essentials.

Ingredients

Ingredient	Benefit
Fruit Essentials supplies 24 fruit sources and other beneficial nutrients	Provides a wide variety of fruit and other foods identified to provide nutritional benefit for the body.
Vegetable Essentials supplies 19 vegetable sources along with other beneficial nutrients.	Provides a wide variety of vegetables and other foods identified to provide nutritional benefit for the body.
Each blend provides a high ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity) value of 2500	Foods and products with high ORAC values have been found to assist in reducing the damage of free radicals, which have been shown to contribute to many age-related health challenges such as cancer and cardiovascular disease.
Both blends provide LactoSpore®, a Probiotic that is stable at room temperature	LactoSpore® (Bacillus coagulans) is a probiotic that is stable at room temperature. Being in stable spore form allows it to survive storage and digestion, so that it is able to assist the body in maintaining a healthy intestinal environment and utilizing the beneficial nutrients from the fruit and vegetable ingredients.
Both blends provide digestive enzymes	Bromelain, papain, and lactase assist in potentially easing digestion.
Both blends provide natural fiber	Oat bran, glucomannan, beet fiber and apple pectin are fiber forms that assist in intestinal transit time.

Usage

Swallow 2 capsules of each supplement daily with water.

If their healthcare provider permits, then children ages 4-12 may take one capsule of Fruit Essentials and one capsule of Vegetable Essentials daily. Older Children may continue with the half dose or, doctor allowing, the parents may raise the dose to the full adult amount of two of each per day. Before giving your child any nutritional supplements, we advise that you consult their healthcare provider(s) regarding selection and dosage.

Usage Tip: If someone cannot safely and comfortably swallow the capsules, then the two parts of the capsule may be cut or pulled apart and the contents mixed with a Protein Shake, juice, yogurt, applesauce or another food or drink of choice.

Common Questions

Q: Is Fruit & Vegetable Essentials helpful for someone with diabetes?

A: Diabetics and borderline diabetics can influence their health and symptoms by carefully managing their food choices, exercise regimen, weight, and lifestyle choices. True Essentials has a number of products that help with blood sugar regulation. Fruit & Vegetable Essentials is a top choice along with the Fiber Powder and the Men’s and Women’s Essential Packs. Other helpful products for blood sugar regulation and overall health include Energizer Tea, Power Antiox, and CoQ10. We recommend that you work closely with your health care providers regarding their advice for exercise, diet and supplements, especially to make sure that your supplements do not interfere with your medications and any other conditions you have.

Q: I am surprised that so many of the supplements, including Fruit & Vegetable Essentials, help with diabetes. Why are there so many?

A: True Essentials supplements have a wide range of benefits. The supplements that help with diabetes will typically also help with cholesterol and blood pressure regulation as well. Our body's systems and functions are greatly interdependent and inter-related. Many of our customers who take these products on a daily basis, report that they also notice a wide range of additional benefits including having more energy and feeling better overall.

Q: Does Fruit & Vegetable Essentials help with digestion?

A: These supplements are made from the whole food goodness of 24 fruit sources and 19 vegetable sources along with natural fiber, digestive enzymes and probiotic (“good” health-promoting bacteria). Together these nutrients promote a healthy intestinal environment and digestive function which in turn allows your body to more efficiently digest and absorb nutrients from the foods you eat.

Q: I experienced increased intestinal gas when I began taking Fruit & Vegetable Essentials. Is this normal?

A: Some intestinal gas may result when you begin using this supplement, especially because it may be detoxifying your body and helping the good bacteria in your gut to grow and thrive. Your body should adjust within 2 to 3 weeks.

Q: Does Fruit & Vegetable Essentials contain sugar?

A: There is a very minute amount of sucrose in this supplement. Sucrose is a form of sugar naturally present in fruits and vegetables. The amount of sugar is estimated to be about 50 to 100 mg. A mg is one thousandth of a gram. It is such a small measure that the FDA allows any amount less than 500 mg to be claimed and reported as zero. So, in essence, according to the FDA, there is no sugar in Fruit and Vegetable Essentials. In the very technical sense, there is a minute, small amount of sucrose possibly present.

Q: Is it a good idea to give children the Fruit & Vegetable Essentials?

A: Absolutely. We believe all children (ages 4 and older) will benefit from the whole foods goodness of the 24 fruits and 19 vegetables, digestive enzymes, and probiotic provided in this supplement. If they are not old enough to safely and comfortably swallow the vegetable capsules, then simply cut or pull them open and mix the contents with a Protein Shake, yogurt, juice, cereal or a small amount of applesauce.

Q: Can Fruit & Vegetable Essentials help support healthful cholesterol levels?

A: Yes, Fruit & Vegetable Essentials as well as Fiber Powder and Omega 3-6-9 EFAs (available as standalone products and also included in the Men’s and Women’s Essential Packs) can promote healthful cholesterol levels.

Q: How does Fruit & Vegetable Essentials help someone who suffers from fibromyalgia?

A: This supplement can provide an abundance of good nutrition which is important for someone with fibromyalgia and provide beneficial anti‐inflammatory benefits as well. Please consult with your health care provider to ensure that your supplements will not interfere with any medications you are taking and to obtain their advice for exercise and diet. Other supplements that may be beneficial for this condition are Joint Solutions with HA, The Men’s and Women’s Essential Packs, Power Antiox and CoQ10.

Q: How does Fruit & Vegetable Essentials compare with a multi-vitamin supplement?

A: Whole Foods Supplements, such as Fruit & Vegetable Essentials and Power Antiox are not multi-vitamin products, so they are not directly comparable to a typical multi-vitamin. Multi-vitamins serve an important purpose, generally, of ensuring a daily intake of the essential vitamins and minerals that the body is unable to make on its own. Taking a Vitamin C supplement does not replace an apple because an apple contains more than 10,000 different components (distinct molecules) in its makeup. Whole Foods supplements, such as Fruit & Vegetable Essentials, contain a myriad of phytonutrients (plant‐based nutrients) that work together in the body and this cannot realistically be replaced by a multi vitamin. These plant nutrients are known to work together to benefit the body just as the identified essential vitamins and minerals do, but Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA’s) have not yet been established for these nutrients. One should not interpret that these plant nutrients are unnecessary or less important because the government has not yet defined an RDA for them.

Another significant way that Fruit & Vegetable Essentials is different from a multi-vitamin supplement is that it also contains fiber, digestive enzymes, and probiotic to assist with digestion and with gut health. This multifaceted supplement provides numerous health benefits and types of nutrition. In contrast, multi-vitamins target a limited number and specific amount of essential nutrients. Many people take a multi-vitamin to ensure a foundational supply of these essential vitamins and minerals and receive the additional phytonutrients (such as flavanoids, anthocyanins, polyphenols) and other benefits of Fruit & Vegetable Essentials and/or Power Antiox in order to complement (rather than replace or compete with) the essential vitamins and minerals contained in the multi-vitamin.

Q: What is the ORAC value of the Fruit & Vegetable Essentials and Power Antiox supplements, and just what does this measurement represent?

A: The measure of an antioxidant’s potential effectiveness in the body is represented by a standard a standard of measure called ORAC value. ORAC is an acronym for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. A food’s ORAC value is a representation of its antioxidant power, meaning how well something works to neutralize free radicals so that they do not harm cells, DNA, and other parts of our bodies. The RDA for ORAC value is 2500 and the recommendation is to eat a combination of 5 to 9 fruits and vegetables each day to obtain this amount of antioxidant benefit. A daily serving of Fruit & Vegetable Essentials provides approximately 5000 ORAC: 2500 for the Fruit Essentials capsules and 2500 for the Vegetable Essentials capsules. These whole foods supplements are high potency, freeze‐dried extract of fruits and vegetables. They naturally contain an abundant variety of beneficial antioxidants. We do not have an ORAC value for Power Antiox, but we do know that just 1 gram of wild blueberry extract is equivalent to the ORAC value and anthocyanin content of 2.5 cups of wild blueberries, which have been shown to have a much higher ORAC value and contain more nutrients than regular, cultivated blueberries. This 1 gram contains an amazing 6500 ORAC units. The point is that both of these products provide a convenient, year-round supply of fabulous nutrition that would be very expensive and probably impossible to duplicate, considering the selection and variety of fruits and vegetables provided in these 2 products.

My husband Nate & I have been taking the True Essentials Men's & Women's Packs and the Fruit & Vegetable Essentials. We recently qualified for the super preferred plus rate on our health insurance after our blood work came back giving us a very high health score. Our Doctor was amazed because in his business, he hasn't ever seen anyone qualify for the top health insurance rate. We have a new customer as a result!

Kimberly, Georgia

I recently admitted that my diet does not include enough fruits and vegetables. I tried really hard for several weeks to eat more, but it always seemed that I was coming up short. So, I decided to supplement with True Essentials’ Fruit & Vegetable Essentials. Within only a couple of weeks I felt more energized and just overall better! Thank you TE!

Sarah, South Carolina

"For ten months, I had been battling breast cancer. By the time I found True Essentials, I had been through two surgeries, the most toxic stages of an experimental chemotherapy and six weeks of radiation. The skin on my hands and feet was still peeling off every month or so - an improvement over weekly peel during the worst chemo. Everything still tasted like metal, hair was a fond memory, and my nails were shredding off for the third time. But the worst was the exhaustion. Every day, I dreaded the unpredictable moment when I would "hit the wall," stopped almost literally in my tracks by tiredness.

I began taking the Fruit & Vegetable Essentials; adding Mineral pH; Hair, Skin and Nails; and the Olive Leaf Anti Fungal Cleanse after a few weeks. Because I expected to be feeling steadily better, I wondered how I would be able to tell what effect the True Essentials supplements were producing. Still, within two months, I had pushed back the debilitating exhaustion to early evening on a pleasantly consistent basis.

Then one day, I was out shopping in the mid-afternoon. Suddenly, I hit the wall of exhaustion. Clutching the shopping cart, I staggered out to the car and fell into the seat. Providencially, my Mom was with me and did the driving while I concentrated on holding my head up. It was terribly discouraging to be so completely drained so early! As I mentally reviewed the activities of the day, trying to discover the reason for my premature collapse, I realized that I had forgotten to take my True Essentials supplements that morning.

After five months, I am now able to keep normal hours most of the time. On the days when my supplement routine is interrupted, I can expect to experience unusual fatigue. True Essentials is making it possible for me to recover a productive lifestyle!"

Kimberly S. Anderson's Story

I give plasma often. Before each donation I have certain tests run like cholesterol levels. Before taking EFA Chewable Wafers and Fruit & Vegetable Essentials, my cholesterol level was 280. Four weeks later the level is 170. I believe these three products made the difference!!

Dennis Lollar's Story

I have not been able to run since graduate school, when I was bucked off a horse and nearly broke my hip. Each time I run, I can't walk for days and in some cases 1-2 weeks because it causes so much pain in my hips. I began taking Fruit and Vegetable Essentials and along with a healthier diet, began to lift weights and run. I miraculously was able to build up to running three times per week-up to four miles each run! I cannot explain this, but all I know is that the only thing I did differently during this period of time was take the TE Fruit and Vegetable Essentials.
