Why should we be eating rather than drinking our Minerals?

Total Dissolved Solids (inorganic material such as calcium, zinc and copper, chloride as well as arsnic, barium and lead and so many more)




Photo taken by team member, Alyson Nesnick measuring the TDS from the Beyond Organic Springs BEFORE any sort of purification process!

 
The Beyond Organic springs are located at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Georgia.  The springs are surrounded by nothing but forest, no threat of run off from anything surrounding the springs, which is why the springs have such a great TDS (total dissolved solids) of 4.  The land is certified Organic.  For those who have no idea what that means,let me give you an idea of what samples from seven leading brands came back with for their scores.  They ranged from 18-247 and that is after the purification process.  The springs are measuring at a 4 before any sort of purification process.  Jordan had it tested more than once as he did not believe it.  
-  Lowest TDS (Total dissolved solids) meaning the most H2O and the least of anything else
 - Flowing from 130 certified organic acres
 - Highest H2O equals most oxygen transporting through body (blood is 92% water where oxygen is transported)
 - H2O Transports nutrients to the cell and removes waste from the cells
So why pure water?  A few things to share about the water.  There is a lot of talk about alkaline water or in other words, mineral water.  Jordan’s feeling regarding water is the purer it is, the better.  There are two kinds of minerals, organic and inorganic.  Organic is what your body is ready to and can easily absorb.  An inorganic mineral, from rock, is not easily digested and most is lost. 
Example:  A growing plant (lets talk about whole grains which provides manganese) converts the inorganic minerals from the soils to a useful organic mineral within the whole grain. When an organic mineral enters the stomach it attaches itself to a specific protein-molecule in order to be absorbed, and then it gains access to the tissue sites where it is needed. Once a plant mineral is absorbed within the body, it is utilized for composing body fluids, forming blood and bone cells, and the maintainence of healthy nerve transmission
Without a healthy organic mineral balance inside and outside the cells, the body will began to spasm, twitch and cramp, eventually deteriorating eventually completely failing if you do not get these.  They are not a luxury item.  Minerals are small components but essential ones.  There are a few inorganic minerals (ones you cannot get from foods but rather from salt itself being added to the food).
The body prefers the richest source of minerals, from foods instead of the hard-to-absorb inorganic minerals from water. Even if human tissue suddenly developed the ability to absorb inorganic minerals from tap water, it would take an enormous amount of water to supply the bare minimal mineral quantities for proper life functions through water alone.
 
 

New and Forecasted Beyond Organic Products!

We just want to say that being a part of Beyond Organic is just an amazing experience!  The vision and the passion our team has is addicting!  For anyone that has been following or checking in on this blog, espcially from the beginning before we had even launched, we have come a long way! 

Below is some of our team that just attended the First Beyond Organic conference in Orlando this past week.  We have the honor of having a team full of close relations with Jordan and his extended family.  With that comes people with a real drive and determination to help spread and educate about the food industry.  We are able to offer an alternative food source for some key items in most American's diets! If any of you know Jordan or know his story, you know when he makes something, it is always something a cut above the rest.  It is all too important for him to consume the best, thus he makes the best.


In this photo are some people on our team consisting of the most educated and passionate individuals.  These people range from teachers, to chiropractors, to naturalpaths, to nutritional coaches, to stay-at-home moms and personal trainers.  They all bring something unique and help to develop a strong, well-rounded team!  Thank you! 




Just to give you an idea of who we are!  Happy and ready for the conference to begin!



Some awesome friends and GREAT business partners!  We strategize together and work hard to bring the team the tools it needs to grow!

Just wanted to share these few images from conference.  As Jordan expressed at conference, this is not a company but rather a community.  I love that because it is so very true.  The people in these photos are all considered friends and family. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go through 2012!

So what is coming up!

For those who are curious of the dirction of Beyond Organic, below you will find the new products available in about six weeks.  They can be pre-ordered in a pack at the moment but in six weeks (around May 2012) they will be available a la carte! 

NEW PRODUCTS! – my opinion of these products

Biltong -  Cured beef. High protein, great on the go snack like a beef jerky but much more moist- Excellent!

SueroViv Gold – Pure cultured whey- straight probiotics. Can be used for so many things such as shakes, cooking (probiotics sustain heat), soak grains, etc. Taste is tart. There will be teaching materials to show best how to use this product. EXCELLENT source for the whey

SueroViv Green – MY FAVORITE! It is very hard to find a green drink that you like to drink- taste is phenomenal- same great nutrients as all the Suero’s but added greens!

Blueberry Acai Amasai – Two of the best super fruits full of antioxidants and of course A2 Beta casein and all other Amasai benefits! Delicious!

Mango Peach Amasai – Delicious! Same as above

Founder’s Cheese- Much like an aged blue cheese- this is limited and will sell out very quickly. Over half sold out at conference. There are at this moment about 75 packs left of this cheese. This is only in the current pack and will not be available at time of a la carte orders. At that time it will be a different aged cheese. Just filling you in!


FORECASTED PRODUCTS for 2012:
Organic nuts and seeds soaked in whey rich in probiotics

Nut and seed butters (almond butter for example)

Raw kale chips

Flax and chia crackers

Raw nutrient dense bars

Raw granola

Raw soaked sprouted grains – Quinoa, brown rice, etc.

Continued Amasai flavors

Continued SueroViv flavors

Vintage green cheeses – cheeses are like a wine. They capture a particular season of time such as spring or fall marking the taste due to what the cattle is eating. These will be out seasonally.

Last- skin care – Certified by the United Kingdom using clean and organic ingredients, sourced pure extracts, (date, almond, pomegranate, etc) No fragrances, ideal pH, transparent supply chain, paraben free, no colors or fillers.


Lastly, for all who are interested, on Tuesdays we have our weekly team call.  This week we have scheduled Jason Dewberry, Chief Marketing Officer of Beyond Organic, to speak regarding the new products giving you more detail.  For those even just curious about the products in general, it will be quite eye opening for you. 

Date:  April 3, 2012
Time:  9:00 pm Eastern time
Call in:  559-546-1880
Access code: 560606#

Just an FYI, this call is very customer based.  If you are considering the buisiness portion, you can jump on at 8:30 at the same number.  This is a short, 25 minute overview of our team, mission and community.  You do not have to, but if you would like, we suggest before coming on the call, listening to a short 3-video series that our team uses. This is narrated by me and can be found on our team youtube channel - www.youtube.com/gobeyondsupport  They are titled Discovery series 1,2 and 3.

So tip of the day!  All to often we read or listen to something and want to change but instead we put the book down and life sucks us back in. After a few days it is forgotten about.  If it is something important to you, give yourself the opportunity!
