THE BEST PHYTONUTRIENTS COME FROM ORGANIC FARMS
Why go to the trouble and expense of farming organic? Plants produce phytonutrients as a defense mechanism against pests and disease. When crops are sprayed with chemicals that defend the plants, they don’t have to work as hard to produce phytonutrients and the result is less-nutritious produce. On the flip side, plants raised organically have abundant amounts of higher-quality phytonutrients. Owning and maintaining control over our own NUTRILITE® farms ensures that our supplements contain high-quality ingredients. Our crops are grown in accordance with nature, based on the following nine principles.
1. THE FARM IS AN ORGANISMNutrilite balances man-made and natural features, and ensures that each farm has the right number and proportion of crops, animals, and plants, so that each farm works as a self-sustaining, living organism.
2. THE INTEGRATION AND DIVERSITY OF PLANTS AND ANIMALSNutrilite considers it crucial to have the right number and diversity of both the animals on the farm and the people living on and contributing to the farm.
3. THE PRESERVATION OF HABITATSNUTRILITE farms require the preservation of natural ecological areas – on the farms and along roads and waterways – to sustain native plant and animal species, and to limit erosion and water contamination.
4. WIDE-BASED SOIL NUTRITIONNutrilite replenishes the soil, rather than depleting it, by maintaining it with natural materials. We grow cover crops specific to the nutritional needs of the soil at each farm and create compost from manure from the farm’s livestock to further enrich the earth.
5. NO CONTAMINATIONNutrilite avoids the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers. We also use natural, environmentally friendly methods to control weeds, insects, and other harmful predators.
6. SEED PRESERVATIONNutrilite saves seeds as an environmentally sound practice and to support the economics of local farmers who do not have to purchase new seed yearly.
7. TRACEABILITYNutrilite records every element ever added to or taken from the soil, to guarantee the quality of the land and the plants grown on it. Traceability includes tracking crop rotations, to the kinds of seeds used and when they were planted.
8. SOCIAL LIFENutrilite views the farm as an organism in itself and also sees the community surrounding the farm as an extension of that organism. Nutrilite ensures that the farm will provide economic security and sustainability for people in the community by providing adequate health care benefits for farm employees and education for the children in the area.
9. CONTINUAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENTNUTRILITE® farms are constantly researching new varieties and species of plants, and the technologies required to stay at the forefront of sustainable farming and nutritional products. A commitment to continued research improves the botanicals that become NUTRILITE concentrates and increases the sustainability of NUTRILITE farms.

AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH FARMCalifornia, USA Our Agricultural Research Farm in Lakeview, California, is the primary location where our farm researchers work to improve existing NUTRILITE products as well as identify nutrients and active ingredients for new products. Organic farming practices are also developed and refined here.
Located on 111 acres atop a prehistoric lake bed, the accumulated nutrient-rich sediment contributes to the farm’s fertile topsoil. By feeding the soil with compost and using carefully tested farming practices, Nutrilite creates a better soil structure – supplying crops with a vast array of nutrients.

EAT AND SUPPLEMENT IN FULL COLOR
If you’re eating mostly beige and brown, it’s time to break out a new meal plan paintbrush to get the mouthwatering taste and healthy power of phytonutrients. Read on to discover why adding a rainbow of color to your shopping cart and your supplements is one of the best things you can do for your health.
ARE PHYTONUTRIENTS JUST A NEW HEALTH BUZZWORD?
Not at Nutrilite. They’ve been a cornerstone of NUTRILITE® products since the company was founded over 75 years ago.
While phytonutrients, the natural nutrients found in plants beneficial to human health, have been part of the chemical makeup of fruits and vegetables for as long as they’ve grown on earth, it’s only been in recent years that specific phytonutrients have been isolated, identified, and studied for their many beneficial qualities. Worldwide research has now recognized that a diet rich in phytonutrients can help lead to optimal health. That discovery has made phytonutrients a hot topic on blogs, in magazines, and in the news.
BECAUSE THEY ARE MADE FROM PLANT CONCENTRATES, NUTRILITE® SUPPLEMENTS CONTAIN A WIDE ARRAY OF PHYTONUTRIENTS, setting Nutrilite apart from other makers of dietary supplements. While we believe you should eat whole fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible, NUTRILITE supplements fill in the gap between the fruits and veggies you need and what you actually eat, with natural plant ingredients and the nutrition that most people don’t get from their diet alone.

WHAT TO EAT
So, admit it – there’s a green vegetable you don’t like, that
you haven’t liked since you were a kid because you were
forced to choke it down before you could eat dessert – right?
Well, just as you’ve probably outgrown the music you liked
when you were young, your taste buds have probably grown
up as well. And, with so many green options out there, it’s
likely you’ll find a way to go green after all. Try wilted spinach
or collard greens in a soup, a fresh salad with romaine lettuce,
kale, and Swiss chard, or grill up some zucchini. Add flavor
to your dishes with cilantro or dill.
HOW MUCH
Typical servings of green fruits and vegetables would be:
• ½ cup cooked or 1 cup raw of any green vegetable such
as kale, spinach, collard greens, romaine lettuce, zucchini,
broccoli, Brussels sprouts, green beans, or Swiss chard.
