Frequently Asked Questions

Who are you?
My name is Paul Eilers and I live in Conway, Arkansas. I've been married to my wife, Laura, for ten years. We have a son, Brady, who is two years old.

What is it?
It's twenty-two fruits and twenty-five veggies in two capsules. It's called The Pops™. It's an easy way to get your fruits and veggies every day, plus a lot more.

This whole-food multi is a supplement whose ingredients are real foods, minus the water and fiber. It's vegetables, fruits, herbs and spices that contain all the nutrients in real food - not just a blend of synthetic vitamins and minerals.

What are some of the things The Pops™ do?
The Pops™ are a dose of good nutrition in a capsule. Take a Purple in the morning and a Green in the evening for:
  • Digestion
  • Elimination and detoxification
  • Energy
  • Better sleep
  • Better skin
  • Reduced stress and anxiety
  • Reduced cravings
  • Reduced aches and pains
  • Normal cholesterol and blood pressure
  • Weight loss
The vegetable enzymes in Pop-a-Green™ can help clean out your arteries, especially when taken in the evening on an empty stomach. (Wake Forest University School of Medicine: Journal of Nutrition, July 2006.)

Pop-a-Purple™ has twenty-two fruits. One of them is camu camu, a major antioxidant that has been known to help reduce the risk of cancer. (Zapata SM, Dufour JM. Camu-camu Myrciaria dubia (HBK) McVaugh: Chemical composition of fruit. Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture. Volume 61 Issue 3, Pages 349 – 351.)

Is there any fiber in The Pops?
No. Fiber is a good thing - if it's in food or a fiber supplement. However, it is not a good thing in a vitamin/mineral supplement, because you're getting less of the expensive ingredients (the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, enzymes, probiotics, etc.) The space in a capsule is best saved for precious ingredients, not wasted on cheap fillers, don't you think? Fiber is a cheap filler, so take it alone.

Who is behind this?
The founders are Heidi, Vicki and Kim, three friends and true health nuts. They originally developed this health supplement for their personal use, since they could not find anything like it. Eventually, over the course of two years, they decided to market it through direct sales. They truly believe The Pops™ makes a difference in our health.

How will The Pops™ work for me?
We don't know how this will work for you. Since you are unique, no one knows for sure what concentrated nutrition will do for you. That's why we say No Promises, No Problems™. The only way to know how it will work is for you to try it.

What is the average dose?
The average person takes one Purple capsule in the morning for energy and one Green capsule in the evening for calming and aiding sleep.

How much is a month's supply?
A month's supply of The Pops™ is half of a Purple box and half of a Green box. So one box of Pops equals a two month supply. This saves you money on shipping.

If I'm on any medications or prescriptions, can I take The Pops™?
Yes. However, both the Pop-a-Purple™ and Pop-a-Green™ contain Bioperine®, which helps the body absorb nutrients. Bioperine® will also enhance the absorption any drugs you're taking too. So it's recommended you wait an hour after taking any medication before consuming The Pops™.

How can such a small capsule have so much nutrition?
One reason is due to today's technology. Another reason is because The Pops™ are highly concentrated. The third reason is the ingredients have a synergistic effect and work significantly better together, rather than isolated.

Is it organic?
Since all seventy-seven ingredients do not fall under this category, The Pops™ cannot technically be considered totally organic. However, all ingredients in The Pops™ are GRAS – "Generally Recognized As Safe" by the FDA (United States Food and Drug Administration).

In addition, all of the ingredients are free of any pesticides and herbicides. And no fillers, gluten, binders, preservatives, food coloring, sugar, synthetic stabilizers or starch are added.

How come the vitamin and mineral amounts are not listed?
The value of the ingredients is not in amounts. It's in the synergy or interaction among the hundreds of nutrients contained in the ingredients, all working together.

Functional medicine research is showing that very small amounts of a wide array of natural nutrients is usually more beneficial than large amounts of isolated nutrients. The body uses them more easily. Further, there is a cooperation between certain vitamins and minerals, promoting absorption. Correcting a deficiency in one vitamin/mineral requires the addition of others, not simply replacement of the deficient one.

So the idea that 200 mg of a nutrient is always better than 50 mg is a myth, because the milligram count is a measure of weight, not usefulness.

The only amounts publishable in The Pops™ are those you see in the Supplement Facts on the back of each box, as follows:

Pop-a-Purple

  • Vitamin A (as beta carotene from Dunaliella) - 5000 IU
  • Vitamin C (from camu-camu) - 10 mg
  • Vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin) - 20 mcg
  • Proprietary Enzyme Blend - 38 mg
  • Proprietary Nutrient Complex - 846 mg
Pop-a-Green
  • Vitamin A (as beta carotene from Dunaliella) - 5000 IU
  • Vitamin C (from camu-camu) - 10 mg
  • Proprietary Enzyme Blend - 38 mg
  • Proprietary Nutrient Complex - 855 mg
The ingredients in the blends are tiny amounts that work together synergistically - unlike ingredients in a multivitamin that are relatively large amounts of isolated nutrients with separate effects. These amounts are proprietary. We cannot legally disclose them.

Please note the Vitamin A is in the form of beta carotene in dunaliella. It is listed as Vitamin A pursuant to FDA regulations that require any vitamin that is found in certain minimum amounts in a whole-food to be listed separately, as if it were isolated.

Same with the Vitamin C. The ingredient really is camu-camu, but the camu-camu is so rich in Vitamin C, the Vitamin C had to be listed separately.

All I need to do is take The Pops™ and I'll be totally healthy, right?
Even though this nutritional supplement is made from food, it's not the same thing as eating actual fruits and vegetables. But you do put the odds for good health significantly in your favor through good eating habits, exercise, enough sleep, reducing stress - and taking whole-food multis.

I feel healthy. Why do I need to supplement?
There are many reasons to supplement. Six of the ten leading causes of disease - heart disease, cancer, strokes, diabetes, hardening of the arteries, and scarring of the liver - can be traced to unhealthy nutritional habits.

In addition, a landmark study in the Journal of the American Medical Association, using thirty-six years of data, concluded that everyone needs to supplement - regardless of age or health. They concluded that people who did not get enough nutrition were at an increased risk of disease, including heart disease and cancer.
"Insufficient vitamin and mineral intake is apparently a cause of chronic disease… Most people do not consume an optimal amount of all vitamins by diet alone. Pending strong evidence of effectiveness from randomized trials, it appears prudent for all adults to take vitamin supplements." - American Medical Association, June 19, 2002
Most Americans do not get even basic, recommended amounts of vitamins and minerals. Research shows 93 percent have inadequate intakes of vitamin E, 75 percent do not meet recommendations for calcium intake, 44 percent are lacking adequate intake of vitamin A, and 73 percent do not get adequate intake of vitamin K. And that's the short list. So do you still think we're getting proper levels of nutrition?

Does Pop-a-Purple™ and Pop-a-Green™ cure disease?
Whole Food Nation™ does not have miracle products. It's the human body that is the real miracle. It just needs high-quality food to do its work. The Pops™ are made from high-quality foods.

Why should I consider taking Pop-a-Purple™ and Pop-a-Green™?
According to The Harvard School of Public Health, "Eating plenty of vegetables and fruits can help you ward off heart disease and stroke, control blood pressure, prevent some types of cancer, avoid a painful intestinal ailment called diverticulitis, and guard against cataract and macular degeneration, two common causes of vision loss."

Why is no one talking about this?

In addition, the USDA has raised the dietary guidelines for fruit and vegetable consumption from five to nine servings per day. Who can eat enough fruits and veggies every day to get what they need - even if they like them?

The Pops™ contain twenty-two fruits and twenty-five vegetables, along with other valuable health-promoting ingredients. That's seventy-seven nutritionally dense ingredients in your body, every single day, and an easy way to meet the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA). Guaranteed. (And for as little as $.98 cents a day.)

Some people say all you get from taking vitamins is expensive urine. How are The Pops™ different? Researchers have now discovered that most supplements do little to nothing at all... and may even be harming you. The key is whether they're synthetic or made from real food. So how would you know? They certainly don't advertise it. Read this short, three-page report to find out: "How Safe Are Your Vitamins?"
