Bee Pollen - Mother Nature's Ambrosia // and possibly the healthiest food in the world ...

Hey, Health Stoppers!

bee pollen
Bee Pollen is BUZZING with Benefits!
Bee Pollen is considered one of nature's most nutritious foods. A complexsuperfood, bee pollen is rich in protein, essential amino acids, and important vitamins such as B-Complex and folic acid. Soooo...Vegetarians and Beegans Take Note!!! If you're a fan of nooch, or nutritional yeast for supplementing your diet, bee pollen could be your new favorite thing! Bee pollen has also been found to be a potent blood builder,balancing iron levels, and makes a great friend to anemia patients!
Bee pollen, being such a great blood builder, also improves strength and endurance in athletes! Bee pollen has been found to decrease pulse rates, and it's high protein content increases strength! Naturalist Francis Hubercalled bee pollen "the greatest body builder on Earth".
Bee pollen is more than a nutritional powerhouse, however; Bee pollen has been shown to normalize cholesterol and triglyceride levels! Even more amazing, bee pollen was shown to increase blood lymphocytes, aka, white blood cells. White blood cells are vital to a fully functional immune system, responsible for exorcising the body of disease, viruses, cell mutations, and more!
Bee pollen has been found to stimulate ovarian function, regulatemenstruation, and boost fertility in women.
One of bee pollen's most renowned claims to fame is it's positive effects on seasonal allergies. Ingesting local bee pollen increases your immunity to seasonal allergens, providing relief and immunity to conditions such as hay fever, pollen-induced asthma, allergy-induced bronchitis and headaches, and more! But DON'T WAIT until allergy season to start taking bee pollen! Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither is allergen immunity! Start NOW, in winter, and your allergy symptoms may never appear come spring time!
And if we haven't said enough, bee pollen is also a reputed ally in weight loss and control! Bee pollen is found to correct imbalances in the metabolism that may cause unexplained weight gain AND loss. As mentioned previously, bee pollen regulates lipoproteins, lowering cholesterol and protecting against heart disease.
Bee pollen is naturally high in phenylalanine, a natural appetite suppressent, which actually acts as an appetite stimulant if your body needs to gain weight! So whether you're overweight, or underweight, bee pollen will serve your needs!
BUT WAIT - WE AREN'T DONE YET!
Bee pollen is ALSO found to have positive effects on the appearence of skin and complexion, protecting against dehydration, wrinkles, darkening, and increases blood circulation to the face! Bee pollen has been found to assist the body in the formation of new tissues and is indeed shown to be anti-aging. YAY.
Seriously, how could anyone say "NO" to bee pollen? After doing our research, we can tell you... we have said "YES, PLEASE!!!"
Doesn't hurt that it tastes good, too! :)

Feel Better with Probiotics ... In a Popsicle!

Hey, Health Stoppers!

feelbetterpops
Fruits, Herbs and Probiotics, OH MY!
Satisfy that sweet tooth while fortifying your immune system!
Feel Better Pops are quite possibly our new favorite sweet treat, because not only are they delicious, but they are SO GOOD FOR YOU.
And they are the perfect solution for finicky kids (and adults!) who may not be so diligent about getting fruits and veggies in their diet.
Not only are these pops CHOCK FULL of Vitamin C rich fruits, but they also contain Digestive + Immune supporting PROBITOICS.
You might have trouble getting your little one to take a capsule, but aPOPSICLE might be different.
Feel Better Pops are a local creation, hailing from our very own Bergen County! Marisa Teiner, Nutritionist and Health Supportive chef, took note of her popsicle loving son, Chace, who requested the frozen treats whenever he felt under the weather.
Inspiration struck, and Marisa set out to create a health conscious alternative to commercially available popsicles!
Feel Better Pops are great for supporting the immune system, and for boosting it when you (or your little one) are feeling a little sniffly.
And really, who wouldn't feel better after having a nice cold popsicle.. a popsicle made with real fruit, coconut water, herbs and probiotics? :)
feelbetterpops
We carry Feel Better Pops in THREE DELICIOUS FLAVORS, Pineapple Banana Smoothie, Apple Pie and Simply Peach.
Each is blended with its own signature herb, providing further immune boosting properties... and flavor enhancement ;)
And not to forget, Feel Better Pops are HYDRATING, because they are blended with coconut water! Electrolytes and Magnesium say what?!
Give Feel Better Pops a place in your cold weather routine. Your kids, their immune systems, AND their taste buds will thank you! :)

Boost Your Energy Levels With the Power of GREEN

Health Stop here! 
Writing in to remind you of our 
great love of all things green!
"Why?"
you may ask;
"Why the compulsive love of a color?"
Well, dear friends,
though colors are, on their own, visually stimulating and quite pleasing to the eye, 
we DO, in fact, have a scientific reason
behind this particular fascination! 

For you see, green is the
color of chlorophyll
and chlorophyll is our friend.
"What is chlorophyll?"
Chlorophyll is a bio-molecular green pigment in plants that allows them to absorb energy from light, aka, photosynthesis.
In humans, chlorophyll is highly cleansing, and beneficial to regulating various bodily processes, alongside preventing disease. It is anti-microbial, working to assist the body in fighting mold and fungal infections, alongside cleansing toxins and heavy metals.
Chlorophyll has been shown to alkalize the body, balancing PH/acid balance, leading reduced inflammation, and a lessened occurrence of chronic ailments.
Chlorophyll promotes the production of red blood cells, thereby oxygenating the body's blood supply, and boosting iron levels. Chlorophyll is also very high in magnesium, which promotes a sense of well-being, decreasing feelings of stress, effectively strengthening the immune system.
Chlorophyll contains generous levels of vitamins A, C, E, K and beta carotene. Chlorophyll also exhibits a considerable mineral content, hosting magnesium, iron, potassium, calcium, and essential fatty acids. It is antioxidant rich, helping the body to counteract free radicals.
As a result, chlorophyll assists the body in promoting a youthful state, counteracting the process of aging. Within a similar vein, chlorophyll has also been shown to assist the body in healing wounds and burns.
"WOW CHLOROPHYLL SOUNDS AWESOME!
Where can I get some?"
If you're looking for that real stuff,
that good stuff,
that authentic chlorophyll experience
we suggest it in these two
very potent forms :
 The Form Of 
WHEATGRASS
A superfood who's history can be traced back to the Ancient Near East, wheatgrass has been consumed for millennia due to its revitalizing effects.
Wheatgrass is a source of protein, potassium, fiber, vitamins A, C, E, K, B6, beta carotene, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, iron, zinc, copper, manganese and selenium. 

The Form Of
SPIRULINA
A cyanobacterium (blue-green algae), spirulina is about 60% protein. It contains all of the essential amino acids, vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, folate, choline, vitamins C, D, E and K; calcium, orn, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and zinc.
We currently have 
wheatgrass available frozen, 
in individual shot packets, 
and spirulina in powder or tablet form. 

Alongside the long list of previously mentioned health benefits, these super-green superfoods are great for giving you a boost of energy,
without jitters or crash. 
 
Give them a try before you grab that fifteen-millionth cup of coffee!
