Arden's Garden Goodness

When I don't have time to pull out my juicer in the mornings, Arden's Garden juices are my go-to for some green goodness in a glass. I love that they are all natural --no added sugar or preservatives at all. 

The Yoga I Vegetable Juice is my favorite!  It has kale, spinach, apples, pineapples, lemon, ginger, and distilled water and tastes so good.  I try to get in my greens whenever I can because they really help my energy levels stay up throughout the day and they are so essential for the immune system.  When you work with germ-ridden third graders every day, you need all the the greens you can get!

Naked Juice--Maybe Not as Naked as You Think

source

While scrolling through Facebook today I saw that Naked Juice had a class action settlement.  This immediately caught my attention because I stock my fridge with Naked juices every chance I get.  In fact, I had just  picked up a few of them this morning because they were on sale for 2 for $4 (an unheard of price!).

 After clicking on the link, I read that according to the USA Today article, PepsiCo announced that their Naked Juice products will no longer be able to label their juices as all-natural.  One of the guidelines of natural products is that they have to contain no genetically modified organisms (GMO's), added colors, or artificial flavors.  The lawsuit claims that Naked Juices do contain synthetic ingredients and, therefore, cannot use the all-natural label currently seen on their bottles.

I hate to think that Naked Juice was preying on the "all-natural" trend that many people have moved towards just to gain a huge profit.  Although I am not that strict in buying all organic and/or natural products, this will probably make me think twice the next time I see Naked Juice products in the natural juice aisle.

Superfruit Juice by Genesis Today

I had the opportunity recently to try out a new supefruit juice line called, Genesis Today, which was started by Dr. Lindsey Duncan, a Naturopathic Doctor and Certified Nutritionist. It is chock full of antioxidants, vitamins and fruits such as acai, goji berry and reservatrol.  These superfruits contain plenty of antioxidants and nutrients which aid in cell renewal, contain anti-aging properties and help you feel more energized.

Many days, I feel like I could use some more energy so  I typically eat blueberries and raspberries several times every day to make sure that I am getting enough antioxidants and vitamins. But, just one serving of Genesis Today's superfruit juice can meet all of your daily health requirements.

I had the Acai berry with Coconut water flavor and it was so good! I've had acai berry drinks before but, never one with coconut water mixed in.  It was very light and not too sweet.

Now you have a chance to try some Genesis Today superfruit juices of your own!
