(PRWEB) May 5, 2005 -- The Amazon Rainforest is home to more than half of the
Earth's estimated 10 million species of plants and animals. It is the source of
about 20% of the Earth's oxygen. It has also been called "Nature's medicine
chest", as a majority of pharmaceuticals and drugs are derived or are active
constituents of plants that have come from there.
The fruits of the
rainforest have been enjoyed by native Indians for centuries. Fruta Vida
International is a caring company that understands the perils facing the Amazon
rainforest. As such, we only use ingredients that were produced from socially
responsible and ecologically friendly farms. We give back a portion of proceeds
to help preserve the people and plants of the
rainforest.
Ingredients
Ultra-filtered water, Brazilian juice blend
(apple, açai and Cupuaçu juice concentrates), yerba mate` tea, natural flavor,
potassium sorbate (added to maintain freshness), sodium benzoate and malic acid.
Better than Green Tea.
Açai
This delicious dark berry is making quite
a buzz because it is packed with natural antioxidants, including vitamin C,
vitamin E and special phytonutrients called anthocyanins. In fact, studies show
that Açai provides significantly more antioxidants than such well-respected
foods as blueberries, oranges and even red wine! Perhaps more impressive is the
fact that the antioxidant concentration in the Açaí fruit is five times higher
than that of Gingko biloba, the popular “brain boosting” herbal supplement that
is renowned for its antioxidant properties.
Cupuaçu
When foreigners
visit the rainforest, native Amazonians will often offer them Cupuaçu – the
“taste of the Amazon”. But this delicious fruit happens to be a potent health
resource, as well. It contains unique antioxidant phytonutrients called
polyphenols. You may be familiar with polyphenols from other common medicinal
plants, notably green tea and grape seeds.
Yerba Mate
South
America’s “beverage of the Gods”. It is widely held that this tea contains
mateine, a chemical cousin of caffeine that has subtly different properties.
Though similar to caffeine in its ability to provide energy, it can have a
milder and safer delivery to the body. Yerba maté is also replete with
antioxidants that help the body fight free-radicals.
