Featured Ingredients

Parsley is not just for decoration! It’s a super nutrient-dense food and a top food source of vitamin K, providing 205% DV per ¼ cup serving. Vitamin K is essential for blood clotting, bone metabolism, cellular function and more.

Garlic is the top food source of thiosulfinates, which are sulfur-containing compounds responsible for diverse health benefits including powerful anticancer properties as well as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-thrombotic effects.

Lemons are the most nutrient-dense citrus fruit. They are particularly rich in vitamin C, providing more vitamin C than oranges per serving! Vitamin C has powerful antioxidant properties, along with serving as an enzyme cofactor, and playing important roles in immune system and mental health.
