| Whole Leaf Powder is derived from
dehydrating the grass, and then grinding it into a powder.
Although there is fiber content in whole leaf powder, our
bodies can't digest these cellulose fibers. The typical
ratio is 5:1, meaning that it takes 5 lbs of grass to create
1 lb of powder.
Juice Powder is derived from
juicing the grass, and then dehydrating the juice under low
heat in order to extract the water content. What is left is
a super concentrated form of juice powder with no cellulose
fibers. The ratio of juice powder is 33:1, meaning that
it takes 33 lbs of grass to create 1 lb of powder.
Alkalive™
is made of a blend of juice powder and whole leaf powder to
create a 20:1 ratio. Special care is taken during the
manufacturing process to insure the nutritional integrity of
all of the the ingredients in Alkalive™.
Here's the process:
The organically grown grasses are harvested
at a height of 14-22 inches.
The plants are washed in water and ozone to
remove any surface particles.
The plants are crushed using a screw-press
mechanism.
The indigestible fibers are screened out of
the juice.
Extracted juice is chilled to 60° F and
transported by vacuum to dehydration chambers.
Drying is done within minutes in an 88° F
vacuum chamber. This low heat process insures that the
active enzymes are protected.
Drying removes 94% of the moisture.
The powder is then encapsulated and bottled.
This process is done indoors without exposure
to sunlight.
