The Sweet Root From the Anden

Yacon Powder is made from a potato-like root that has been farmed in the lush mountain valleys of Peru for centuries. Often called the Apple of the Earth, these roots are sliced thin, and sun-dried, before being stone-ground into a powder.

Yacon has a wonderful sweet taste and a naturally high Inulin content, with only about half the calories of average sugar cane sources.

It is considered the world's richest source of fructooligosaccharides (FOS), a unique type of sugar (inulin) that can't be absorbed by the body.
FOS acts as a prebiotic, serving as food for the "friendly" bacteria in the colon.

It provides health benefits including:

• Aids digestion
• Enhances absorption of calcium and magnesium
• Improves elimination of toxins

FOS is also high in antioxidants and potassium. Preclinical studies have indicated that consumption of FOS may help increase bone density and protect against osteoporosis.

Yacons complex sugars break down slowly so they have little effect on blood glucose levels, making it low on the Glycemic Index.

Yacon Powder is not as sweet as Yacon Syrup but has the same effects and versatility, use in baking, smoothies, pancakes...

Available in 4 oz and 8 oz online and in store.

Are you pro antioxidant?

Antioxidants are one of the first lines of defense that the body employs to keep free radicals in check and prevent them from causing a domino effect of damage on other cells.

Many popular drinks including carbonated beverages, energy drinks and coffee are highly acidic. When we consume these fluids, our bodies are forced to draw upon internal sources of alkaline to neutralize the acids.

Surprisingly, much of the water available today is not properly balanced.

Alkazone Antioxidant Water® with its pH 9.5+/- provides the minerals and alkalinity we need to counter damaging effects of acidic foods and beverages. It is an important component to a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Alkazone Antioxidant Water adds the antioxidant minerals Selenium and Zinc to our water, which have been known to stop the formation of free radicals.

Alkazone bottled water goes through a multi-phase 5 step purification process in order to deliver you the best tasting, most refreshing product on the market.

1. Carbon Filtration, water is filtered through carbon to remove any contaminants and impurities
2. Reverse Osmosis, water is purified through a semi-permeable membrane removing any remaining impurities.
3. UV Sterilization, UV light is transferred through the water to kill any microrganisms
   
4. Ozonation, an electronic step to help reduce the concentration of iron, manganese, sulfur and reduce or eliminate taste.
   
5. Mineral Infusion, Alkazone adds essential minerals unique to our water:Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium, Selemium and Zinc. And No Sodium
   

Bottles are BPA-free so no harmful chemicals will seep into the water. And they are PET-1 designated meaning they can be recycled through any U.S. recycling facility.

 

Alkazone dedicates their passion to promoting good health and a healthy lifestyle since 1994.

 

The first product from their lab was the Alkazone ph Booster Drops. Simply add to water, and alkalize your water on the go.

 

Without a doubt, oxygen is the most essential element for all existence.

It is the element that sustains us. It is what we use to digest food and to break down toxins in our bodies so that they can be removed.

• Pollutants in the air that we breathe reduce the level of oxygen available to us.
• Infirmities in our bodies can make it difficult to breathe at all, and can make it difficult to fully use the oxygen that we do breathe in.

This product is used both internally (by oral ingestion) and topically.
