Udo’s Beyond Greens

There are lots of “greens” products out there. Why? Because greens are our most important foods! They provide us with all of the essential components of health; they are our foods, as well as our medicines. Almost every health problem will benefit from the use of green foods.

Beyond Greens® provides the foundation for optimum nutrition with the best that nature has to offer including organically grown cereal grasses – barley, alfalfa, oat and rye. The raw cereal grasses come from the young green plants that, in maturity, would produce cereal grains. Because cereal grasses are vegetables, they contain no gluten.

Beyond Greens provides:

• Protein from seeds and greens;
• Soluble and insoluble fibre;

Beyond Greens is rich in detoxifying chlorophyll, and provides naturally balanced vitamins, minerals and protein to keep you in top form. For example, barley grass contains diverse nutrients that include calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, B-vitamins, carotene and vitamins C and E. Flaxseed is the highest known source of lignans, which are special antioxidants found in plant fibre.

What’s so good about greens?

We refer to ‘greens’ as the diverse population of salt and fresh water plants (algae), land plants, and land plants that have returned to aquatic environments, all of which are green in colour. ‘Greens’ are the basic foundation of human health and regeneration, and have been an endless food source for living creatures as far back as it goes. Biologists believe that land plants evolved from one-celled aquatic organisms and did not colonise the land until about a billion years ago. Plants and their green ancestors are rich in magnesium-containing chlorophyll, the green pigment found in chloroplasts of plants. Chlorophyll is what absorbs the light energy from the sun that drives photosynthesis, making Earth the green planet.

‘Greens’ dominate nearly all terrestrial communities. They are found in gardens and woods; fields and meadows; on mountains; in valleys and oceans; on our windowsill (sprouted from seeds); or in a pot in the house. They include grasses, leaves, herbs, algaes, seaweeds, broad-leafed plants, trees, mosses, lichens, ferns, shrubs, weeds, and many more.

What are phytochemicals?

In the Greek language, the word ‘phyto’ means plant. Phytochemicals are, by definition, any biologically active compound derived from plants. They function as the plant’s immune system, defending against exposure to diseases and viruses; determine plant colour and taste; and aid the many biological tasks plant organisms must carry out to survive.

Thousands of phytochemicals are found in plants, and humans have only recently begun to study the molecular structure of these valuable food compounds. Examples of phytochemicals are carotenoids, flavonoids, plant sterols, polyphenols, lignans, sulfides, curcumins, saponins, coumarins, terpenoids, phthalides, and many more. On-going research continues to provide new insights into what they are and how they aid in the preservation of human health.

Phytonutrients are plant chemicals used as foods. Phytomedicines elicit biological responses in the body systems of mammals that consistently reduce the risk of one or more diseases of chronic nature. Phytochemical-rich ‘greens’ and other plant parts have been used, since as long as man has been alive, to improve the health of those who consume them.
