"Knowledge of the role of physiologically active food components, from both phytochemicals and zoochemicals, has changed the role of diet in health. Functional foods have evolved as food and nutrition science has advanced beyond the treatment of deficiency syndromes to reduction of disease risk... Foods can no longer be evaluated only in terms of macronutrient and micronutrient content alone. Analyzing the content of other physiologically active components and evaluating their role in health promotion will be necessary. The availability of health-promoting functional foods in the US diet has the potential to help ensure a healthier population... fruits and vegetables represent the simplest form of a functional food..." -American Diabetic Association on Functional Foods

Independent antioxidant test (TEAC testing of singlet oxygen quenching ability) results demonstrate that nanogreens has the most potent formula among leading competitors. In order to maximize the absorption of nanogreens' proven potency, our team of scientists has incorporated a patented liposomal nanotechnology we call SuperSorb. Independent antioxidant testing in the blood plasma is the best way to prove our technology works.
