Foundational Nutrition products contain building blocks, such as fruits and cod liver oil, needed in order to produce a healthy body. Immunity Support products help promote a healthy immune system, and can protect your body from diseases. Finally, Optimal Wellness products use botanicals and whole foods, such as green tea.
Garden of Life uses whole food supplements, which provides a number of benefits to the body. First of all, whole food supplements are much easier to absorb and process than other kinds of supplements. At the same time, because these products are natural, they are not likely to cause major toxic effects to the body even when they are taken in excess. Finally, these supplements contain phytonutrients and micronutrients that are important in the absorption and metabolism of other nutrients. Some of these phytonutrients work together to potentiate each other's effects.
