The Green Foods/Superfoods section is a perennial favorite here at Evergreen, with its rows of nutrition and antioxidant-packed emerald-colored powders. The Green Foods category is also one of the fastest-growing categories in the natural products industry, as consumers seek to improve their nutritional health with products which are versatile, easy to take and portable. One of the most popular companies we carry is still family-owned after nearly 25 years, MacroLife. Their flagship products Miracle Reds and Macro Greens have become some of the best-selling whole food
supplements in natural foods and supermarket retailers throughout the
US.

About MacroLife

Company founder Sylvia Ortiz is a nutrition and health expert, entrepreneur and renowned fitness guru who has dedicated her life to helping others live healthy lives. A pioneer in the fitness industry, Sylvia had developed and introduced Rebound Exercise, an aerobics exercise program using a small, circular trampoline. In 1984,
Sylvia founded Fit For You International, a fitness and health products company. She is an internationally recognized expert in fitness and health and established standards used worldwide for Rebound Exercise
training and instruction. Together with chiropractor Dr. Edward Wagner, she created Macro Greens and Miracle Reds which led to co-founding the MacroLife company.

Macro Greens

Sylvia Ortiz came up with the Macro Greens product in order to help her son, JR Ortiz, who was suffering from depression and obesity among other health problems. Taking the newly created greens product, JR lost more than 65 pounds while lowering his body fat from 30 to 12 percent and regaining his health.

Based on certified organic barley grass juice—no wheat or alfalfa grasses— and spirulina, the product also offers immune and detoxifying supportive herbs such as astragalus and milk thistle. The alkaline and cleansing properties are further augmented by chlorella, watercress, ginger, and dulse, among others. Included are blends of both probiotics and plant-based enzymes. Rounding out the formula is an anti-inflammatory/antioxidant mix of high-bioflavonoid herbs and fruits as well as a blend of stress-busting adaptogenic herbs such as eleuthero (Siberian ginseng).

Macro Greens was voted “best-tasting greens product” in the natural products industry, and is sweetened with only a small amount of stevia herb. The product comes in assorted sizes ranging from single-serving packets to tubs of thirty, sixty or ninety servings. Macro Greens is non-GMO, gluten and dairy free, and contains many certified organic ingredients. According to Sylvia, the product is astonishingly good tasting when mixed with water or any non-citrus
juice, and is completely nutritious, builds health and cleanses
the system.

Miracle Reds

The accompanying superfood powder from MacroLife is called Miracle Reds. According to the company, it is much more than a fruit blend! It’s an advanced, non-allergenic, proprietary fruit blend. Miracle Reds has nutrient-rich, anti-aging anti-oxidants, polyphenols and heart-friendly plant sterols. Delicious and nutritious, great for anytime – perfect for post workout recovery.

This formula may be considered highly anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, supporting cardiovascular health mainly, as well as joint and cellular support. Each serving surpasses the raw food nutrition of five servings of fruits and berries that contain the widest spectrum of antioxidants. Included are cherry, blueberry, blackberry, acai, elderberry, acerola and more: a veritable host of bioflavonoid/antioxidant wealth.

As in the Macro Greens, this award-winning formula also contains an adaptogenic herbal blend, probiotics and enzymes. A heart-healthy blend of fiber rounds out this powerhouse powder. Miracle Reds is largely organic, and is non-GMO and gluten and dairy free. Serving-size options are the same as Macro Greens.
