Super Reds and Triple Greens Drink Mix
About 2 years ago Kay and I were in the car listening to the radio, and one of those long infomercials came on. Normally we would have turned the station, but something caught Kay’s ear, and she wanted to listen for a while. It was a commercial by Purity Products about their Triple Greens Drink mix. They sure made it sound great! When we got home, Kay got on the computer and ordered one canister of Triple Greens. I think she paid $39.95 plus shipping! I thought that sounded like a lot at the time. We received it in a week and tried it.
Order Triple Greens Here Just $26.95
She mixed some for me in very cold water and I tried it. I have to admit I was not crazy about it. But I did drink it all, and found that the next day it tasted better. In fact, it seemed to get better tasting every day thereafter…..more on that later. We eventually discovered that Triple Greens really tasted good in orange juice. We ordered another canister and started having it in orange juice each morning. If you do try taking yours in water, be sure the water is VERY cold. That is about the only way it is good in plain water. Also, it takes a LOT of brisk stirring to get it all dissolved.
By the second canister of Triple Greens, we found ourselves REALLY looking forward to it each morning. I started waking up in the mornings feeling anxious to go mix my Triple Greens. Here is my theory on that:
Although its not addictive in the same sense alcohol or drugs are, it does seem to cause one to crave it. Why? Well, I think it is because it does make your body and mind feel better. And like a drug which causes a high, it induces good feelings after drinking it. Therefore, it causes the brain to anticipate it and crave it. In my opinion, anything that can cause you to feel that much better naturally, has to be good for you.
The infomercial promised Triple Greens would provide more energy, more mental alertness, and an overall feeling of well being. Although skeptical when I first heard the claims, I can honestly say it does all the above for us! We LOVE our Triple Greens! Since then, we have also added Super Reds to our morning drink. Along those lines, let me remind everyone that these drinks are very potent. It is possible they may be a little rich for your stomach at first. If you have any stomach problems from them at first, simply cut back to half a scoop each day until your system gets used to them. In fact, I have found that one scoop of Triple Greens and one scoop of Super Reds is about all my system can handle at once. Sometimes I eat an apple or banana a little later, and it is almost too much for my stomach to handle. There are a lot of fruits and vegetables in those little scoops. Give your system time to digest them before eating too much else.
