FYI® Restore: Muscle & Tissue Recovery* is the ultimate broad spectrum systemic enzyme formula.  It delivers high proteolytic activity on the systemic level, to work with the body's own processes, assisting in normal tissue repair and recovery.*

Why do you need systemic enzymes?

• To help those who experience muscle soreness after exercise, such as aerobics, gymnastics, weight-lifting, cycling, running, walking, tennis, soccer — and more*
• To promote normal muscle and tissue recovery after muscle and tissue overuse or injury*
• To support healthy metabolism in connective tissue, in order to maintain normal range of motion*

Why should you use FYI® Restore?

A range of physical issues, including occasional muscle overuse, can lead to fibrin buildup in muscle tissues.  Fibrin is a fibrillar protein, that is polymerized to form a protective clot (in conjunction with platelets) over a wound site.  The proteolytic (protein digesting) enzymes in FYI Restore help your body to digest this fibrin and aid in normal fibrin turnover, to support healthy microcirculation in overused tissue and promote normal muscle and tissue recovery.*

How is FYI® Restore different from other enzyme formulas?

• Compared to enzyme formulas that support joint health, the FYI® Restore systemic enzyme blend more expansively works with the body's own processes, to support normal muscle and tissue repair and recovery*
• FYI Restore provides a broad spectrum of highly active proteolytic enzymes, including high levels of bromelain and papain, along with bioflavonoids, antioxidants and trace minerals, that work together to support connective tissue integrity, aid normal fibrin turnover, and promote healthy microcirculation in overused tissue.*
• FYI Restore utilizes a natural enteric coating to ensure the sensitive systemic enzymes pass through the acidic environment of the stomach into the small intestine unaltered, to be absorbed into the body for maximum effectiveness.
• FYI Restore is 100% vegetarian and vegan

What is the difference between FYI® Restore and FYI®?

FYI® is a comprehensive joint health formula, with chicken collagen type II and botanicals, designed primarily to support normal joint function and mobility.*  FYI® Restore is an advanced, highly active systemic enzyme blend.  The 100% vegetarian caplets are sealed in a natural algae-based enteric coating to bypass the stomach and release the enzymes directly into the small intestine.  This is where enzymatic absorption is maximized to support normal fibrin turnover, tissue repair and recovery.*  FYI and FYI Restore are complementary products, and can be used together for enhanced benefit.

Why do you need a joint and cartilage formula?

Cartilage rebuilding is a continuous bodily response to wear and tear in the joint and cartilage tissue.  Glucosamine supplies a major building block that supports the body's ability to rebuild cartilage tissue and maintain healthy joint status.*

What is shellfish-free glucosamine?

The glucosamine in FYI® ULTRA is derived from a plant source, which means that people with shell fish allergies and vegetarians are able to use this product.

How is FYI® ULTRA different than other joint and cartilage formulas?

FYI® ULTRA is the ultimate joint and cartilage formula, providing clinically-studied amounts of glucosamine, along with turmeric, pomegranate, selenium, and other carefully selected natural antioxidants that assist the body's response to everyday wear and tear, and support joint and connective tissue health.*

Goatein is pure goat's milk protein.  A unique protein powder made from goat's milk, it contains all eight essential amino acids — protein building blocks crucial to good health.  Goatein is easy to digest, and can be tolerated by many people who have difficulty digesting cow's milk.

Why do you need protein?

Proteins form the foundations for muscles, skin, bones, hair, teeth, blood, the brain, the heart and, because enzymes are proteins, billions of biochemical activities in the body.

Proteins are made up of 20 amino acids, eight of which are considered "essential", because the body can't produce them, and they must be obtained from the foods we consume.

How is Goatein® different from other protein products?

Goatein® is an animal protein — the only complete sources of protein.  Vegetarian protein sources, such as soy, are typically missing one or more of the essential amino acids, even if their protein content is high.

Goatein contains pure goat's milk, from goats raised without antibiotics or growth hormones.  Many commercial dairy protein powders are produced from animals given antibiotics and hormones.  Many vegetable proteins are made from non-organic or genetically modified organisms, and may contain chemical residues.

Goatein is processed without excessive heat, so all its elements remain in their natural forms.  Other milk protein powders, that claim to be minimally processed, are, in fact, subject to invasive processing, including heating and drying at high temperatures.

Protein molecules in goat's milk have a different structure than those in cow's milk.  This allows certain people who can't tolerate bovine milk to consume milk protein from goats.

Why should you use Goatein®?

Goatein is a complete source of protein, antibiotic- and hormone-free and minimally processed.

You could use Goatein, even if you're on a low carbohydrate diet and are looking to supplement with high quality protein.

You could use Goatein if you want an animal protein, but have trouble digesting cow's milk protein.

Suggested Use: Adults, take one scoop, mixed with 8 ounces of juice or water, as often as desired.  Blend or shake vigorously.  Great in smoothies, mixed in cereals or sprinkled on yogurt.

Goatein is a superior-quality protein concentrate made from partially pre-digested goat's milk.

Goat's milk has smaller molecules than cow's milk, making it closer in size and composition to human milk.  Pre-digesting, through a lactic acid fermentation process, makes Goatein even more bio-available, and virtually eliminates its lactose content.  Furthermore, during the fermentation process, many digestive enzymes are created that aid in the assimilation of food nutrients.

Living Calcium™ Advanced: Bone Density Support Formula* is a comprehensive formula that helps build and maintain good bone health.*

Why is calcium supplementation important?

A lifetime of regular exercise and eating a healthful diet, that includes enough calcium, such as Living Calcium™ Advanced, helps build and maintain good bone health, and may reduce the risk of osteoporosis later in life.*  Adequate calcium intake is linked to reduced osteoporosis, by slowing bone loss in older men and women.

Osteoporosis affects middle-aged and older persons, especially Caucasian and Asian women, and those whose families tend to have fragile bones in later years.

How is Living Calcium™ Advanced different from other calcium products?

• MCHA Calcium is an effective body-ready calcium source, shown to support better calcium absorption and utilization.*
• Growing scientific evidence reports the significant bone health benefits of vitamin K, and its ability to facilitate calcium absorption.  Living Calcium™ Advanced includes a vitamin K complex, with Poten-Zyme® vitamin K1 and vitamin K2, derived from fermented soy (natto), as opposed to the chemically-synthesized forms found in other calcium products.
• Homocysteine Balance Complex of betaine and Poten-Zyme® B Vitamins supports healthy bone metabolism and homocysteine levels.*
• Vital Mineral Matrix contains essential trace minerals, organically bound to a whole food rice matrix, for optimal absorption to support bone health.*

Living Calcium™ Advanced: Bone Density Support Formula*

• A comprehensive bone support formula, that helps build and maintain good bone health.*
• An excellent source of MCHA calcium, along with a broad spectrum of vital minerals and nutritional co-factors, to help support healthy bone density.*
• MCHA (or Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite) is a highly absorbable, body friendly form of calcium.  The MCHA used in Living Calcium™ Advanced is derived from Australian, grass-fed, free-range cattle.  MCHA calcium provides the mineral matrix of living bone, including magnesium and phosphorus, that helps support healthy calcium and bone metabolism.*

Help your body build and maintain good bone health with Living Calcium™ Advanced.  It is a highly-absorbable form of calcium and essential co-factors, in a "body ready" form.  Pre-digested in Garden of Life's patented Poten-Zyme lacto-fermentation process, the calcium is in an acidified form, and is delivered with a broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals, enzymes and probiotics, for better absorption.

Living Calcium is a homeostatic nutrient complex, meaning that the calcium is not in an isolate form, but is part of the blend of 70 ionic ocean and fulvic acid-based minerals, blended from sea vegetables and green foods.

90 caplets bottle.

Suggested Use: Adults, take 6 caplets daily, with food.  May take 2 caplets, three times per day.  A recommended method of calcium supplementation is to take the suggested daily amount, divided into multiple servings, throughout the day, because studies suggest that the body can only utilize a limited amount of calcium at one time.
