That’s a lot of time and effort compared to simply mixing up and enjoying a tall glass of TriVita NutraFruits in mere seconds.

Goji Berries
Have been used by Himalayan healers and in Asian medicine for thousands of years. Goji berries contain a wide array of antioxidants, polysaccharides and key phytonutrients that work together to help protect the body’s healthy cells and support its immune and nerve functions.

Acai Berries
Found in the Brazilian rainforests, these berries have higher antioxidant levels than almost any other plant food. Acai berries also contain polyphenols, phytonutrients and anthocyanins to neutralize free radicals that threaten the health of numerous body systems and organs. And their anthocyanins are so plentiful, their levels are as much as 30 times higher than those found in red wine.

Health experts agree that disease prevention is best effected with the following amount of fruits and vegetables daily: o Children: five servings o Women: seven servings o Men: nine servings According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, North American adults eat less than three servings of fruits and vegetables daily. This habit has caused the death rate from heart disease, cancer and many other causes to skyrocket.
