Also known as Horny Goat Weed, this supplement supposedly got its name after a farmer noticed that his flock of goats were particularly aroused after eating flowers of a specific type. These Epimedium flowers contain icariin, which is a natural compound that increases blood flow to sexual organs and promotes sex drive. Icariin has been found to increase Nitric Oxide synthesis as well as inhibiting the activity of the PDE-5 enzyme

https://www.antlerfarms.com Antler Farms® Organic Greens is a powerful blend of the world’s most nutrient dense superfoods: barley grass, wheat grass, chlorella and spirulina.

Most green superfood mixes sold today are overloaded with ingredients. Although having a long list of ingredients in a superfood blend may sound impressive, it actually reduces the effectiveness of the product – because it only contains tiny amounts of each ingredient.

When taken in trace amounts, even nutrient-dense superfoods will provide little to no impact on your body. Therefore, most green blends on the market are ineffective because they provide insufficient quantities of each ingredient on a per serving basis to promote health and well-being.

That’s why Antler Farms® Organic Greens was created with only the world’s top four green superfoods – and nothing more. This uncommon, disciplined approach provides 100% pure organic superfoods in ample quantities – quantities required for optimal benefits and effectiveness.

Antler Farms® Organic Greens contains a perfectly proportioned blend of barley grass, wheat grass, chlorella and spirulina. Together this mixture of vibrant green grasses and microalgae is a nutritional powerhouse that delivers an abundance of alkalizing greens, chlorophyll and other phytonutrients, essential and non-essential amino acids, protein, antioxidants, fiber and minerals.

Barley grass and wheat grass are the young leaves of the barley and wheat plant. Our grasses are grown outdoors in the fertile soils of New Zealand’s Canterbury Plains, where they flourish with natural sunlight and fresh water. When harvested at their nutritional peak, these grasses contain a wide range of nutrients – including high concentrations of chlorophyll, enzymes, vitamins and minerals. Barley grass and wheat grass are widely considered to be two of the most nutritionally balanced foods in nature.

Chlorella and spirulina are microscopic green and blue-green algae that grow in warm, tropical climates. Our algae are cultivated in crystal clear mineral water, free from environmental pollution. Both chlorella and spirulina have exceptional nutritional properties. Chlorella contains the highest amount of chlorophyll of any known plant, and also has a unique phytonutrient complex known as Chlorella Growth Factor. Spirulina, on the other hand, is comprised of over 100 nutrients and contains the highest protein concentration of any plant or animal on per gram basis.

Antler Farms® Organic Greens combines all four of these renowned superfoods into one simple, powerful blend.

Organic Greens is certified organic. No GMOs, herbicides, pesticides or artificial fertilizers are used in our entire farming system. In addition, our products are regularly tested for heavy metals, toxins, bacteria, pollutants and other contaminants to ensure purity and safety. Organic Greens is vegan, gluten free, soy free and dairy free.
