Ingredients
Pine Nuts
There is no nut or seed in the world with more protein than pine nuts. Indians used pine nut soup as a replacement for mothers milk! The reason you don’t see pine nuts in any protein powder is they are very expensive. We don’t care. We want the best. Period! Pine nuts are also super-high in essential fats and sometimes they can go rancid. The pine nuts in this formula are captured in a new special freeze-dry process developed in Russia to preserve their power and vitality for very long periods of time.
Durian
This is the only protein powder in the world with Durian. Known as the “king of fruits”, this very large football-sized spikey prehistoric-looking fruit can weight up to 10 lbs (4.5kg). It’s an awesome source of protein for muscle building and essential fatty acids (EFA), high sulfur content (which is great for youthful skin), and tryptophan (which makes people feel good and relax).
Nopales Cactus (Prickly Pear)
Super high amino acid complex, polysaccharides, and fiber to push the protein through. (High amounts of protein tends to constipate. You need lots of fiber!) This popular cactus can grow all over the world and is destined to be the next big herbal superstar. Each part of this plant is both food and medicine, and it’s been used for centuries. The plant’s antiviral properties have been used for herpes, flu, HIV, obesity, gastrointestinal disorders, cholesterol, and skin problems. Contains huge doses of vitamin C. The flat green pads contain a full range of amino acids, the building blocks of protein. It is extremely rare for a plant source to have this many amino acids. It’s very high in dietary soluble fiber, mucilage, and pectin. Contains the same immune-boosting polysaccharide found in aloe vera. Studies have shown the prickly pear cactus to be effective against diabetes, even type 2! It also helps the pancreas create insulin. Simply amazing! Also used for lung problems and prostate issues.
Chlorella

Nettle also contains a protein molecule called UDA which attacks fungus in the body.
Brazil Nut
Very high in protein and calories, brazil nuts are one of the best natural sources of selenium, plus lots of copper, iron, and magnesium. Brazil nut trees can live 500-700 years and have multiple anti-aging qualities. Lowers LDL bad cholesterol and raises HDL good cholesterol, which helps prevent coronary artery disease and strokes. An excellent source of B vitamins.
Yucca Root Powder
Source of sterols and saponins, which increase absorption of nutrients and cell wall permeability. Increases effect of all herbs in formula. Strong anti-inflammatory, great for post-workouts. Sterols bind cholesterol, help formation of hormones through adrenal glands. High in resveratrol- a very strong anti-aging anti-tumor phytoestrogen that counters a lot of the stronger estrogens which can accelerate the growth of cancer cells. Saponins are natural steroidal anti-inflammatory- great for ulcerative colitis, gastritis, any type of intestinal inflammation, arthritis, asthma and some allergies. Extracts have bee used for tumors and melanoma. Helps break up pathogenic biofilms and establish a correct balance of intestinal flora (probiotics) in the gut and colon. Yucca is great for bloating, sometimes an issue for people who take too much protein or have weak digestion. The high levels of resveratrol (a neocardiogenic substance) make it a leader in anti-aging and cardiac-cell regeneration (heart tissue regeneration), even help with recovery from spinal cord injury and degenerative joint disease. All from a wild desert plant that nobody pays much attention to.
Amla Berry
One of the highest sources of natural vitamin C, needed for all the other herbs to fully function in the body. Vitamin C plays a vital role in secretagogue activity (hormone regeneration) and is an excellent alternative to hormone replacement therapy. It is a powerful electron-donor to help resurrect the form and function of hormones like estradiol, progesterone, testosterone etc. Amla berry is also a strong antioxidant, antispasmodic, strengthens vascular system, regulates intestinal flora. High in A, B1, B2, B3, C,D,E, calcium, chromium, cobalt, iron, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, silicon, zinc, bioflavonoids and saponins.
Alfalfa Juice Powder
A complete food. Vitamins C,D, E, K for strong bones and immune system. A complete B complex, C, D, E, K, octacosanol, iron, manganese, magnesium, selenium, silicon, sodium, sulfur, tin, trace minerals, zinc, coumarins, 8 digestive enzymes, all 18 essential amino acids (making it a major source of protein), fatty acids, and saponins. Alfalfa is the richest source of phytoestrogens (good for preventing bone loss and creating hormones). It stimulates and nourishes the pituitary gland, protects from radiation poisoning, neutralizes acids and poisons in the body, used for arthritis and cancer, strengthens all tissues, treats ulcers, strengthens bones, rebuilds teeth, and cleanses the colon.
Malic Acid
Helps the body absorb all these wonderful nutrients. Helps dissolve uric acid in the body (which helps with gout) and also oxalate kidney stones. Dying cancer cells create uric acid which puts a strain on kidneys. Malic acid helps clean that up. Helps increase oxygen transport into cells, and is an ATP precursor. ATP is the fuel for cells and helps them to function properly. Our cells require acids to generate energy including malic acid, citric acid, pyruvuc acid, pantothenic acid, etc. Malic acid also helps fibromyalgia.
TMG- TriMethylglycine
Made from beet roots, TMG is great for helping nutrient absorption, energy production, hormone production, protecting DNA and rebuilding adrenals. It is one of the best methyl donors known. Almost every molecular bodily function requires methylation (there are over 4,000 methylation reactions in the body)- like switching genetic DNA back to where they should be, stomach acid formation, hormone and neurotransmitter production, energy, immunity, water balance, liver support, immune support, healing, helps to prevent heart disease by reducing inflammatory homocysteine, which leads to plaque formation. Most people are under-methylated, leading to less than optimal functioning of almost every bodily function and genetic problems. TMG helps get things back on track. It’s is also great for the liver, which is the body’s primary regulator for cholesterol and creator of glycogen and energy. By helping bring stomach acid levels back to normal, TMG ultimately helps everything from increased nutrient absorption to adrenal rebuilding (more energy) and getting hormones back on track. This may prove to be a new breakthrough in optimal body function.
Glutamine
Good for recovery. Glutamine is an amino acid that needs to be replaced after workouts. It also helps prevent post-workout tiredness and it makes you feel good. It rapidly improves memory retention, recall, concentration and alertness. Other effects of glutamine are helping mental performance in cases of retardation, senility, epileptic seizure and schizophrenia. It reduces alcohol and sugar cravings, protects against alcohol toxicity, and controls hypoglycemia.
Bladderwrack
A seaweed packed with vitamin K- excellent adrenal stimulant. Still used today by native Americans in steam baths for arthritis, gout and illness recovery. Good source of immune-stimulating polysaccharides, which stimulate white blood cells.
Coconut Water Powder
Surfactant, helps nutrient absorption. A great sweet flavoring with the benefits of coconut water- a great nutritious electrolyte with lots of B vitamins, essential fatty acids, iron, magnesium, selenium, zinc, caprylic acid and proteins. Good for gall bladder, kidney, liver and thyroid.
Vanilla
Flavoring from the pods of a tropical climbing orchid, said to have aphrodisiac qualities.
Licorice Root
Licorice root is 15 times sweeter than sugar, yet doesn’t spike blood sugar and insulin. Has over 400 phytochemicals with healing qualities. Helps treat hormone imbalances and reduces adverse effects of estrogen. Helps stop DHT formation (a primary cause of hair loss). Helps rebuild adrenals burned out from stress. Increases bile flow from liver, regulates intestinal flora, reduces body fat, removes artery plaque and helps reduce cramps.
Date Sugar
A sweet source of fiber, iron, protein and lots of minerals. Helps with constipation, intestinal disorders, sexual weakness, weight problems, heart problems, energy and stamina.
Magnesium Malate
A critical mineral necessary for good nerve and muscle function, healthy blood vessels, balanced blood pressure and athletic endurance. Important for tooth formation, heart and kidney health and restful sleep. Counteracts stress, irregular heartbeat, emotional instability and depression. Next to oxygen, magnesium is the most important substance in the body. We need lots of it and almost everyone has dangerously low levels. It is as important for life as the air we breathe. If other healing methods aren’t working that should be working, it means you are low in magnesium, because without it your body can’t be healthy. Stress depletes magnesium, so everyone in the modern world needs it.
