Twenty-two Fruits for Energy. Twenty-Five Calming Vegetables.
A Total of Seventy-Seven Healthy Ingredients. In Two Capsules.

"The Pops™ are a dose of good nutrition in a capsule."

A whole-food multi is for people who believe nutrition matters, that our busy lives, chronic stress, lack of exercise, depleted soil and polluted environments require more nutrition than we get from the food we eat.

A whole-food multi is a supplement whose ingredients are real foods, minus the water and fiber. That means primarily vegetables, fruits, herbs, spices and more - not synthetic, man-made vitamins or minerals.

People who believe nutrition matters take whole-food multis for insurance against possible deficiency. They believe synthetic multivitamins are largely useless and even risky.

A few rare individuals believe they get everything they need for good health strictly from their diet. They won't be interested in this whole-food multi.

For everybody else, however, there is The Pops™ to help maintain a healthy immune system, increase energy and whole body health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What exactly is in The Pops™?
There are a total of seventy-seven ingredients crammed into The Pops™, including twenty-two fruits and twenty-five vegetables. The Pops™ also have nine major sources of antioxidants, which fight free radicals and protect the body against cancer and early aging.

In addition, The Pops™ have eleven plant enzymes for things like digestion, bloating and gas. These enzymes also break down plaque buildup in arteries, as well as toxic deposits in joints and fatty tissue. There's also friendly flora, fat burning metabolic boosters, food herbs and more. These ingredients were selected because of what research has shown they do for our bodies – make them feel good.

Q: Who designed The Pops™?
The designer of The Pops™ is Dr. Heidi Dulay, Ed.D., N.C. Her health quest started with two personal battles - living down an embarrassing childhood nickname "Walking Ball" and battling cervical cancer in her thirties. Now, more than twenty years later, she's in peak health and lives to spread the word.

Dr. Heidi teaches Comparative Dietary Approaches, a core course in the Masters Program in Nutrition at John F. Kennedy University in California. She also leads product development for Whole Food Nation™, including The Pops™ and ER Fat Burn™.

Dr. Dulay also guides clients with her programs in nutrition and health. She holds advanced nutrition certifications from Bauman College, a Master of Science from Stanford, and a Doctor of Education degree from Harvard.

Q: How are The Pops™ made?
The Pops™ are made by taking a nutrient-rich plant like broccoli and removing the water and fiber. It's then made into a powder and pressed into capsules. All the nutrients in the plant remain intact, including vitamins, minerals and enzymes. The phytochemicals (plant medicines), chlorophyll (healer of sick cells) and antioxidants (cancer fighters) are also preserved.

When consumed, the nutrients are absorbed into your body as if you had eaten the fruits and vegetables whole. This allows you to get seventy-seven nutritionally dense ingredients every single day, including twenty-two fruits and twenty-five vegetables. And because The Pops™ are made from real food, there are no negative side effects and your body knows exactly what to do with the nutrients.

Q: Who are the owners of Whole Food Nation™?
The owners of Whole Food Nation™ are Dr. Heidi, Vicki and Kim, three friends and true health nuts. They originally developed The Pops™ 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.

Q: All I need to do is take The Pops™ and I'll be healthy, right?
The effects reported by consumers are as diverse as the ingredients. Since you're unique, no one knows 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 to try it.

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

Q: Why do we need to eat more fruits and veggies?
Because they're a prime source of "co-factors" - the term professionals use when talking about vitamins, minerals and nutrients your body needs to process food.

Co-factors are crucial for you to be able to absorb nutrition from food, make fuel for energy, neutralize stress and age gracefully. Even low carb fanatics know they have to eat veggies with their meat, fish, eggs or cheese. Otherwise, they get constipated and have bad breath.

Your body can't break down protein well without co-factors. You not only get clogged up, but you can also get leaky gut, which are holes in your intestines. These holes are made by bacteria as they gobble up the rotting protein lodged in your intestines.

A leaky gut allows foreign substances to pass into your bloodstream and land in your joints. This results in inflammation and joint pain. It causes your immune system to start misfiring and your skin to break out in ugly lookin' acne, spots and scabs.

Sometimes, what leaks through causes toxic growths and arterial plaque. Soon diseases emerge, like allergies, arthritis, acne, osteoporosis, lupus, even cancer and heart disease.

Q: What causes cravings?
Not having enough co-factors causes you to have cravings, your body's cries for missing nutrients. Cravings remain until your body gets what it's looking for, or becomes too tired to look.

When you eat junk food like sugar, alcohol, any white grain (white bread, white rice, pasta), or other refined, processed food like soybean or corn oil, your body has to scrounge for co-factors. It steals them from bones, organs, muscles and other tissues. Your body does this so it can at least use the junk food for fuel. This puts off sickness and disease, but not for very long.

Q: 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, 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.

Q: If I'm on any medications, 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™.

Q: 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.

Q: 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.

Q: What does The Pops™ not have?
The Pops™ do not have pesticides, food coloring, sugar, synthetic stabilizers, starch, gluten, binders, filler or preservatives. The seventy-seven ingredients are made from real food, are in two easy to take capsules and work together throughout your body.

Q: Do The Pops™ help fight colds and the flu?
Studies show vitamins such as A, B-complex, C and E, found in fruits and vegetables, strengthen your immune system against colds and the flu. Yet people tend to eat fewer fruits and veggies in the winter. The Pops™ has twenty-two fruits and twenty-five vegetables, plus a whole lot more.

Ginger root is another ingredient in The Pops™ used to fight colds, fevers and nausea. Elderberry is another Pops ingredient used for centuries to treat fevers, colds and influenza. Elderberry lessens the severity of colds, especially when combined with vitamin C and zinc. In a clinical study, elderberry significantly improved flu symptoms after two days. Most participants reported complete relief from symptoms after three days.

Q: What are some of the things The Pops™ do?
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 ingredients in The Pops™ also help reduce damage to the body for things like wrinkles, eyesight, arthritis and more. All ingredients in The Pops™ are GRAS – "Generally Recognized As Safe" by the FDA (the United States Food and Drug Administration).

Q: Are The Pops™ the same as eating actual fruits and veggies?
Technically, no. The Pops™ are not a substitute for eating actual fruits and vegetables. They are not meant to be taken instead of food. These whole-food multis are to complement a diet that does not contain optimum amounts of nutrition.

According to the U.S.D.A. food pyramid, everyone should eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, at least nine daily servings. If you don't eat perfectly every single day and on every single occasion, then the seventy-seven health ingredients in The Pops™ provides all of the necessary vitamin and mineral co-factors needed for optimal biochemical functioning.

Q: Who needs whole-food multis?
According to Prescription for Nutritional Healing, here's a short list of those who should get whole-food multis, The Pops™:

Adolescents
Alcohol drinkers
Athletes
Dieters
Drug users, prescription or recreational
Elderly
Health fanatics
Junk food eaters
Overweight and obese people
People who supplement with specific nutrients
People who eat mostly cooked food
Sick people
Smokers
Stressed out people
Women who are pregnant, nursing, or taking oral contraceptives
Workaholics

Q: Where are The Pops™ manufactured?
The manufacturing facility of Whole Food Nation™ is Garden State Nutritionals, an FDA-licensed and certified GMP facility. GMP stands for 'Good Manufacturing Practices', a certification given by the National Nutritional Foods Association and NSF International.

These two independent, nonprofit organizations use a uniform set of standards, so consumers can be assured that what is on the label is also in the box. Also, consumers can know they are receiving pure ingredients at accurate dosage levels. Garden State Nutritionals has earned the coveted National Nutritional Foods Association GMA 'A' rating, and is kosher-approved.

Q: I already take vitamins. Why should I take The Pops™?
Supplements only have to be 10% natural in order to legally make this claim. That's why more than 95% of all vitamins sold today are man-made synthetics.

"Your body isn't designed to take synthetic vitamins, regards them as toxins, and attempts to eliminate them as rapidly as possible. They act like stimulants, hasten the aging process, rob your body of energy and provide expensive color to your urine." - Dr. Joel Robbins, M.D.

Synthetic vitamins can build up in your system and cause health problems, including lung cancer, heart attacks and yes, even death. That's why any supplement you take should only be made from food. This is what separates The Pops™ from the grocery store cheapies.

Q: I feel healthy. Why do I need to take The Pops™?
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."

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, 2002

Most Americans do not get 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, 44 percent are lacking adequate intake of vitamin A, and 73 percent do not get enough vitamin K. And that's the short list.

So do you still think we're getting proper levels of nutrition?

Q: How much are The Pops™?
Well, it depends. Let me tell you how it comes. A single box retails for $37.00.

The wholesale price is $25.00 per box (with the purchase of ten or more, like buying bulk at Sam's Club^®).

And regular subscribers pay $29.50 a month. (.98 cents a day)

What People Are Saying

"We don't know what The Pops™ will do for any given person, but so far we've seen increased energy, better quality sleep, alleviation of 'afternoon slump', improved bowel function, blood pressure normalization, weight loss and fewer food cravings." - Steve Hall, M.D., Issaquah, Washington

"The Pops™ seems to help whatever can be helped by a dose of good nutrition." - Mary Schaffer, D.C., Mill Valley, California

"Over the years I have done a lot of reading and purchased several different health supplements, and we have enjoyed benefits from each of them. But I have never seen a product with such a broad range of whole foods, enzymes, and beneficial flora.

Big B™ - Vitamin B Superfood

If you find yourself tired in the mornings, or falling asleep at your desk in the afternoon, then one of the reasons may be a lack of B vitamins in your diet.

Big B™ is an extraordinary superfood in powder form, with a wonderful sweet taste. Most people use it to make smoothies. The three company owners of Whole Food Nation™, who are health nuts, also eat it by the spoonful as a treat or a quick snack. They've used it almost everyday for seven years.

I take this superfood almost every day, first thing in the morning, along with a Purple Pops. My wife and I also mix Big B™ in with the juice we give our two year old son, Brady.

The only ingredient in Big B™ is stabilized rice bran, one of the richest sources of B complex vitamins (see Supplement Facts). B vitamins are a natural source of energy. They help reduce stress and support your adrenals. They help sex drive and fertility.

Big B™ rice bran also naturally contains essential amino acids, essential fatty acids omega 6 and 3; the minerals calcium, magnesium and potassium; the super enzymes glutathione peroxidase, methionine reductase, and super oxide dismutase; phytosterols including gamma oryzanol, plus over 100 antioxidants.

Common rice bran turns rancid very quickly. Stabilizing it allows the bran to stay fresh about a year or more after manufacturing and 60 days after opening. Big B™ rice bran is stabilized without chemicals or preservatives.

If you believe nutrition matters and makes a difference in your health, like my family and I do, then consider adding Big B™ and The Pops™ from Whole Food Nation™ into your daily routine.

What People Are Saying - More Testimonies

"I started taking The Pops™ about six months ago. My face used to break out real bad all the time and then I noticed about a month after I started taking them that my skin cleared up - big time. I forgot to take them for a few weeks and I started breaking out again. Seems like as long as I remember to take them that my skin stays clear." - Michael Cotter, 16 years old, Petaluma, California

"I do physical therapy work on horses, which is like pushing on a brink wall all day. Last summer I hurt so much that I was thinking of changing careers. But after being on the Pops for a few months, my achiness has pretty much gone away. It didn't happen overnight. I'm glad I kept taking them." - Joseph Freeman, Battleground, Washington

"I know The Pops™ has helped me remain healthy and strong while working in a physically demanding career for more than 30 years. I'm 58 years old and I do hundreds of squats and stretches in my work everyday with no pain." – David Grogan, Springfield, Missouri

"I don't drag around in the mornings anymore. My mind is clear and I feel ready to go. My wife and I have been on the Pops for 13 months now, and we don't go a day without them. I'm 57 and want to live independently without caretakers until we drop." - Dave Christensen, Balston Spa, New York

"Seven years ago I had a car wreck and I lost my energy. I couldn't work the 12 to 16 hour days I used to, and I had to take two naps to get me through the day. After a month on the Pops I don't need morning naps anymore. My old energy is coming back and I feel better. I take a Purple with breakfast, a Green with lunch, a Purple in the afternoon for a boost, and a Green with dinner." - Kathy Mossberg, Overland Park, Kansas

"I can't thank you enough for all the information on the Pops. I know they've helped us stay healthy and on the right track. Even my 15 year old son noticed his battle with acne went away with the twice-a-day pops. One purple, one green and we save tons of money in acne medicine and dermatologist bills." - Doris Herrmann, Galveston, Texas

"I was clearing out some supplement bottles today, when I realized that I've actually replaced 4 supplements with the Pops. Here's what I was taking:

1. Primal Defense - 4 per day, $35/month - probiotics for my colon

2. Similase - 4 per day, $24/month, - digestive enzymes

3. Green Magic Powder - 1 Tb/day, $36/month, - sea veggies, algae and grasses for minerals, B vitamins and microproteins

4. Juice Plus - 6 capsules, $59.25 - fruits and veggies in capsules, for a multi

That's a total of $155 a month and 14 pills a day, plus the powder. Now I spend $37.00/month, taking 1 Purple and 1 Green per day. I'm saving over $100 a month and I'm not missing anything I need." - Kim Klaver, Kansas City, Missouri

"In the first week I wasn't napping during the day anymore, and I wasn't crashing when I got home. I'm even alert at my night meetings. I've been on The Pops™ fourteen months now, and I haven't had a cold or flu since." - Ron Rubin, D.M.D., Boca Raton, Florida

"I used to dread hearing the alarm go off a 6 am and I'd always try to grab a few more minutes under the covers. The morning after I started taking Pop-A-Green, my eyes flew open at 5 AM and I felt I just had to get up. I've tried a lot of vitamins and supplements over the years, but this experience was new to me. I continued popping the Greens and kept waking up alert at 5 AM. It's been a year now, and no more alarm. I enjoy being the only one in the family awake at 5 AM." - James Young, San Jose, California

"I love the Pops because they're easy to take and work into my daily routine. For me, it's one Purple in the morning and one Green after dinner. The Purple gives me the energy to get through the day while the Green helps get rid of all the garbage I eat and helps me sleep better at night." - Shane Lambert, Trempealeau, Wisconsin

"I've had a sweet tooth for as long as I can remember. I could eat a plateful of cookies and a bowlful of candy at one sitting. I tried different diets and vitamins to break me from the habit but nothing seemed to work. Then I tried Pop A Purple and I noticed within a few weeks that I quit craving the sweets ...and I lost 15 pounds the first year without trying. Now I can have sweets when I want to, and stop when I want to. It feels good to be in control for the first time." - Stephen Frerich, St. Cloud, Minnesota

"I used to wake up four times every night. Now with the Greens I sleep like a baby straight through, and in the morning I have more energy than I've had since I was a kid. And it's also happening for my wife..." - Marty Bromberg, Boca Raton, Florida

"After two months on Pop-a-Green™, my doctor took me off my blood pressure med and I dropped 16 pounds. I'm calmer and more focused and no more afternoon slump." - Joanne Almvig, Seattle, Washington

"I lost my get up and go after a car accident a few years ago. Within a few days of taking the Pops, I started waking up an hour earlier and have cleaned out my kitchen and bathroom tile for the first time in months. After a few weeks, my body started to tone up. It's been a year now, and my chiropractor is amazed at how easier my adjustments are. I have a counter of other supplements which I don't take anymore." - Alicia Neisingh, Santa Rosa, California

"My 25-year old bipolar son had a manic episode one night. He raged so bad that we had to call the cops. No one in the house got any sleep that night. I thought I would have to drink coffee all day to stay awake at my job the next day. Instead, I took a Purple every 3 hours. My energy stayed up and I was surprised not to have any emotional effects from the night before. So now, each time life gets crazy on me, I follow the same routine, popping a Purple every 3 hours or so - to keep going and take the edge off. On normal days I only take a couple of Purples in the morning and a couple of Greens at night." - Vicki Link, Petaluma, CA

"Since I've been taking the Pops, I've had a huge decrease in muscular pain with my fibromyalgia." - Jana Zaloum, Kansas City, Missouri

"I think the Pops, especially the Greens, are balancing out my hormones. Now I can usuallly sleep through the night instead of waking up at 3 or 4:00 a.m. and lying awake for at least an hour, then be completely worn out the next day. That's probably why I feel addicted to the Greens - they're like a sleeping pill for me..." - Camille Paul, Seattle, Washington

"Eighteen months ago I lost about 25% of the vision in one eye from an injury. My eye doctor said the vison wouldn't return. I made some lifestyle changes and started taking The Pops™. After six months, a vision test showed that twenty percent of my vision has come back. - Jacqueline Freeman, Battleground, Washington

"I lost 37 pounds on a low carb diet, but wasn't eating veggies and got constipated. With Pop-a-Green™ I've been normal for a year now and I've kept the weight off. With both Pops, my husband's high cholesterol dropped 60 points." - Tricia Meier, A.R.R.T., R.D.M.S., Randle, Washington

"My hubby has been having trouble with heartburn. He even got a prescription from his doctor which I wasn't crazy about. But it was only for a month. When the month ended, his heartburn came back. It seemed like he complained about it more after using the prescription.

Well I asked Dr. Heidi if heartburn was related to diet. She suggested taking the pops before a meal (for the digestive enzymes). I told my hubby all this Monday evening and gave him a green before dinner. Fast forward about 24 hours.

I got home from a candle show about 9:30 Tuesday night and what does my hubby tell me...he hasn't has any heartburn all day! Could it really be this easy?" - Susan S.

"Since I have been taking the Pops I have had a huge decrease in muscular pain with my fibromyalgia. Would this be due to the increase in nutrition? Will our muscles respond negatively to lack of proper nutrition? Also, what kind of additional nutritional helps do we need in addition to the Pops? - Thanks - Jana Zaloum

Dr. Heidi's response:

Yes, our bodies - including our muscles - respond well to good nutrition, using it to heal. The Pops have a number of ingredients that could take the credit for the decrease in your muscle pain.

1. The 7 metabolic enhancers in the Purples help your body better absorb the nutrients in the food you eat, as well as the nutrients in the Pops themselves. So, even if you did not make any changes in your diet, you are probably extracting more out of what you eat than you did before, including the minerals magnesium and manganese that improve energy production in muscle cells, relieving fibromyalgia pain. The metabolic enhancers also increase the body's energy production. This causes the muscle cells to expand rather than contract, easing the pain.

2. A wide spectrum of antioxidants are contained in a number of Pops ingredients, including camu-camu (Vitamin C), dunaliella (beta carotene/ Vitamin A), extracts of green tea, grape seed, turmeric, alpha lipoic acid, not to mention all the berries and other fruits. Antioxidants support immune function, which causes the body to relax instead of
struggle.

3. The probiotics (with the prebiotics) in the Pops reduce yeast overgrowth which seems to be common in people with Fibromyalgia. Yeast overgrowth weakens the immune system, places additional stress on the body, which in turn causes the muscles to contract, causing pain.

4. The protease enzymes improve absorption of protein which is needed for tissue repair. They also reduce inflammation.

Note: Regarding nutritional help in addition to the Pops, that would depend on your biochemical profile. Do you have a nutritionist who could give you some guidance?

Delighted that the Pops have helped you." - Best regards, Dr. Heidi.

Note: Dr. Heidi Dulay has an Ed.D. from Harvard University and an M.S. from Stanford Business School. She's the designer of The Pops and creator of the Extreme Regime Fat Burn Formula program.

"I just had to tell you about my first day on the Purple Pops.

"I received my order earlier this week, but unfortunately the Green Pops are on back order. So I was going to wait until I got them to start, but I decided to go ahead and try the Purple.

"I took one about 10 am, right before I headed out to Physical Therapy. I noticed a difference in how I felt the very first hour! I don't quite know how to describe it. Sort of like a renewed sense of well-being. Sometimes I just drag thru the physical therapy exercises, but today I felt great.

"I went to lie down at the regular nap time, around 2 pm, and just tossed and turned for a while. After a while, I thought, this is ridiculous, I don't need a nap today, and I got up, got dressed, and drove in to the beach. I walked on the boardwalk, walked out on the fishing pier (really enjoyed that) and then sat down on a bench and people-watched for a while, taking in all the wonderful salt air breezes.

"That's the first time in the whole year that I've lived here that I ever drove in to Ocean City in the evening (and it's only 5 miles!).

"And get this: I didn't even buy any Thrashers French Fries or caramel corn! I had a big salad for lunch, and just wasn't hungry this evening. Can you believe it?

"Just had to let you know...

"I have a confession to make. In addition to my problems in my marriage and with depression, I'm also an alcoholic. I took my last drink of beer on Monday Sept 22 and began outpatient sessions at a local treatment center on Wednesday Sept 23."

"I had been on the Greens for two weeks and I believe they helped me make my decision to stop. I'm still taking my Greens, but also had to take some doctor prescribed medication to help me through detox - the second day was the worst."

"I feel better, both mentally and physically. When I looked at myself in the mirror this morning, my eyes were bright - no dark circles - and I didn't notice the strain that had started showing constantly on my face."

"I truly believe the Greens are helping me to help myself. God Bless." - Lily in Myrtle Beach, now a regular user of The Pops™
