Message from Mitchell

Eating is such an ordinary part of our daily lives that we often lose sight of its enormous importance. Our need for healthy food goes far beyond our requirement for the fuel provided by calories. The vital health-enhancing vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phytonutrients and other compounds found in whole, unprocessed foods, such as Pure Synergy®, provide the components our cells require to carry out their life-sustaining work. This work includes fighting off infection; pumping blood; digesting and absorbing nutrients; carrying neural signals in the brain; facilitating procreation; rebuilding bone, connective tissue and skin; and contracting and relaxing muscles. If we don’t receive adequate amounts of these essential compounds, literally every cell in our body is adversely affected because, like a line of dominos falling, adverse effects travel from one system in the body to another. This process is often subtle at first and slow to manifest. In fact, research shows that there is usually a 10- to 20-year period of gradual deterioration in our bodies before a diagnosable health challenge develops. While this information may sound frightening, it is actually tremendously empowering. During that 10- to 20-year period, our lifestyle and dietary choices are extremely important because they can inhibit this deterioration. The choices you make today do impact your life tomorrow!

A Lifestyle Choice

Modern Stressors

  • Impure water
  • Environmental toxins
  • Nutritionally bankrupt, processed, chemical-laden food
  • High levels of psychological stress
  • Congested cities and traffic
  • Extreme time pressures
  • Accelerated lifestyle and cultural changes
  • Pharmaceutical and recreational drug use
  • Sleep deprivation
  • The world in which most of us live today is filled with unprecedented levels of stress, far beyond anything our near or distant ancestors ever experienced. While our bodies were designed for the physical work that once defined people’s lives, they do not easily adapt to the environmental, chemical and psychological pressures permeating our lives today.

    These modern stressors can have many undesirable effects on your health and sense of well-being. Thankfully, your body possesses an amazing ability to adapt and regenerate when it receives the concentrated nourishment and support necessary to function optimally. Consuming the synergistic blend of 60-plus superfoods and botanicals in Pure Synergy is a powerful way to enhance your innate health and well-being. In a world so devoid of genuine nourishment, Pure Synergy offers deeply satisfying nurturance and vitality to your hungry cells! The result —authentic energy, vibrant life force and radiant well-being!

    howtoflower In my experience, Pure Synergy provides the most effective and reliable immune enhancement on the market today. My patients who use it feel much more energetic, vital and healthy. Daily supplementation with Pure Synergy is a key part of my own wellness and preventative health care.

    Tips for Use

    Pure Synergy can be mixed with a variety of liquids. Many people choose pure, filtered water; others use juice or a combination of juice and water. Pour 8 to 10 ounces of liquid into a jar or glass with a tight-fitting lid, and add Pure Synergy. Put the lid on the jar or glass, and shake well. Pure Synergy is ready to drink! Lump alert: Please do not try to stir your Pure Synergy into liquid —it will be lumpy! Shaking or blending ensures a smooth beverage.

    Open Pure Synergy gently. To protect the precious phytonutrients in Pure Synergy from heat, light and oxygen, we meticulously seal your bottle using our state-of-the-art Ultra Fresh Packaging system. This unique system creates a pressurized and highly protective oxygen-free environment inside the sealed bottle. When you open your Pure Synergy, you may notice a whooshing, suction noise as the air pressure equalizes between the bottle and the surrounding environment. In some cases, depending on altitude and other atmospheric conditions, the pressure differential between the bottle and the surrounding environment is greater and results in a loud popping noise when the seal is peeled off! Although this may be surprising, it is a sure sign your product is absolutely fresh. If you startle easily, we suggest you prick the seal on your Pure Synergy bottle with a pin or knife tip and then remove the seal.

    Begin gradually. The daily serving of Pure Synergy is one heaping tablespoon. However, if you are adding Pure Synergy to your diet for the first time, please begin slowly. This allows your body to comfortably acclimate to a deeper level of nutrition. We suggest beginning with one-quarter to one teaspoon of Pure Synergy and gradually increasing to one heaping tablespoon or more daily.

    Drink Pure Synergy on an empty stomach. The vital nutrients and phytonutrients in Pure Synergy are most easily absorbed if you drink it on an empty stomach. Many people find it convenient to drink Pure Synergy first thing in the morning and then to wait at least 30 minutes before consuming any other food.

    Drink plenty of water. Water is essential to optimal health. If you are not already doing so, please drink 8 to 10 glasses of pure, filtered water throughout the day. Coffee, juice and soda pop do not count as water!

    Protect Pure Synergy. An unopened bottle of Pure Synergy can be kept in any dark, cool location, such as a cupboard, drawer or closet, for up to five years. Please keep opened bottles of Pure Synergy in your freezer or refrigerator. It will last about three months in your refrigerator, and about six months in your freezer.

    Be flexible and experiment. Pure Synergy is food, not medicine and is safe and beneficial to consume regularly. Some people drink it twice a day. Some people consume more than one heaping tablespoon daily; others, less. Some people prefer Pure Synergy in plain water on an empty stomach; others add Pure Synergy to juice and smoothies. The important thing is to discover the quantity, frequency and mixture that you find most beneficial and appealing!

    Health and wellness are intrinsic parts of our life journey. We are deeply committed to supporting your journey in all its unique twists and turns, and we view ourselves as your partner in your quest for optimal health. Like any partnership, though, our relationship with you is a two-way dance. Please stay in touch!

    Freqently Asked Questions

    Q: Can I use Pure Synergy more than once a day?

    A: Certainly! Many people drink Pure Synergy first thing in the morning and then enjoy another serving in the midafternoon, when their energy level begins to fall. Pure Synergy vegetarian capsules are a convenient alternative for those who like the benefit of additional support during their day.

    Q: Can I take more than one tablespoon of Pure Synergy daily?

    A: Pure Synergy is a wonderfully restorative and balancing food. Since it is not a medicine, you can consume it whenever you desire extra nourishment and support. Many people enjoy more than one tablespoon daily during times of extra stress, and we encourage you to experiment with your daily serving to find the serving size that best supports you. After your body has become accustomed to one heaping tablespoon of Pure Synergy daily, you can gradually increase the amount you use.

    Q: If I take only one teaspoon of Pure Synergy, will it still benefit me?

    A: Yes! While we recommend using one heaping tablespoon per day, any quantity offers valuable support and nourishment.

    Q: Can I mix Pure Synergy with other foods?

    A: Combining Pure Synergy with other foods can slow its absorption; however, it will still provide your body with deep levels of nutrition. Many people find that blending Pure Synergy into a fruit smoothie is a wonderful alternative for children or people unaccustomed to the flavor of green foods.

    Q: Can I mix my Pure Synergy beverage ahead of time and drink it later in the day?

    A: Although this might be convenient, it is not a good idea. Pure Synergy contains many valuable active enzymes. These enzymes are dormant in the dried powder and become activated when Pure Synergy is mixed with liquid. You will therefore experience the most benefits if you drink your Pure Synergy as soon as it is mixed. If it is inconvenient to drink your Pure Synergy when you mix it, try our Pure Synergy capsules. You can carry them with you for easy consumption during a busy day.

    Q: Can I mix Pure Synergy with something hot, like soup?

    A: We don’t recommend this. The active enzymes in Pure Synergy are easily damaged by heat. For best results, do not mix your Pure Synergy in anything warmer than body temperature.

    Q: I avoid sugars and fruit juices. How can I mix my Pure Synergy?

    A: Use plain water! If that is unappealing to you, experiment with cooled fruity herbal teas or vegetable juices. You can also add a drop or two of stevia; it has a sweet flavor without any sugars.

    Q: I don’t like the “green” taste of Pure Synergy. Is there a way I can disguise that?

    A: Don’t give up! Some people have trouble adjusting to the taste at first, but almost everyone discovers that it becomes more pleasing to them in time. Many people enjoy their Pure Synergy in a sweet organic juice such as apple, cherry or pineapple. Others like to mix Pure Synergy in a fruit smoothie. A drop or two of stevia or a teaspoon of our delicious Healing Honey® in the liquid helps enhance the flavor for some people. Just experiment until you find a flavor combination that appeals to you. Your other option is simply to use Pure Synergy capsules.

    Q: How can I get my kids to drink Pure Synergy?

    A: Most kids love fruit smoothies. If you use vibrantly colored fruits, such as frozen cherries or blueberries, you can partially disguise the green color. Also, serving Pure Synergy in an opaque, fun cup with a lid and straw helps to entice them!

    Q: How can I continue using my Pure Synergy when traveling?

    A: Even when you are vacationing, traveling can be stressful and demanding — Pure Synergy can be especially valuable during these times to help smooth out adjustments to new locations, sleep patterns and foods. Pure Synergy travels well if you protect it from direct sunlight, moisture and intense heat. Simply transfer some of your powdered Pure Synergy into a small container or baggie, or use Pure Synergy capsules.

    Q: Should I take an occasional break from drinking Pure Synergy?

    A: Pure Synergy has been carefully formulated to provide vital and balancing support on a daily basis. Just as there is no need to take an occasional break from eating vegetables, there is no need to interrupt your use of Pure Synergy. In fact, many of the herbs and other foods in Pure Synergy are tonic in nature. This means they provide the greatest strengthening benefits when consumed regularly, in balanced quantities, for long periods of time. Moreover, Pure Synergy’s formula is energetically balanced. Our Chinese mushrooms and herbs have been specially formulated and prepared utilizing age-old traditional Chinese medicine techniques to create tonifying, balancing blends.

    Q: Can I use Pure Synergy when I’m fasting?

    A: Many of our customers and staff members have enjoyed wonderful benefits when using Pure Synergy during a fast, as Pure Synergy helps stabilize energy levels and is easy to digest. Not only are the naturally occurring nutrients in Pure Synergy highly bioavailable, but Pure Synergy is also an excellent source of purifying chlorophyll, which helps to enhance the detoxifying process.

    Q: I’m healthy and eat a good diet. Will Pure Synergy be of any benefit to me?

    A: Absolutely! Radiant health is a process, not a destination at which we arrive and then remain. Even the most nutritious diet and healthiest person benefit from the concentrated nutrients and vibrant phytonutrients found in Pure Synergy. No matter how healthy we are, we still live in a toxic world, filled with daily stressors!

    Q: I’m pregnant. Can I use Pure Synergy?

    A: Yes. Many pregnant and nursing women, including moms at The Synergy Company, appreciate the extra energy and deep nourishment of Pure Synergy. If you are using Pure Synergy for the first time, please remember to begin slowly. If you have any questions or concerns, consult your doctor or midwife.

    Q: Can my five-year-old drink Pure Synergy?

    A: Pure Synergy is so nurturing that it is wonderful for children of all ages. Even a small amount can help balance the nutritional extremes created by children’s finicky food preferences! Just remember to start very slowly when introducing Pure Synergy into their diet — begin with one-eighth of a teaspoon, and build slowly to a serving size appropriate for their body weight. If you need help determining a daily serving size for your child, please call customer service at 800-723-0277. And remember that it is always essential for everyone, including children, to drink plenty of pure, filtered water!

    Q: Can I feed Pure Synergy to my pets?

    A: Please do — they love it! Even carnivorous animals regularly eat grass and greens for their natural purifying properties and trace minerals. Many veterinarians and breeders recommend Pure Synergy. Just remember that pets need to begin slowly as well, and please adjust the serving size for their body weight.

    Q: I have allergies and am very sensitive. Can I use Pure Synergy?

    A: Many people with multiple allergies thrive when using Pure Synergy. Not only does Pure Synergy contain no common allergens, but its vibrant life energy, active enzymes and abundant phytonutrients are especially nourishing to a body already stressed by allergies and dietary limitations.

    There is no gluten in any of our grass juices or sprouted grains, and neither the grass juices nor the sprouted grains contain any harmful lectins.

    A cleansing response can often be mistaken for an allergy reaction, so it is particularly important for sensitive people to introduce Pure Synergy into their diets slowly — begin with 1/4 to 1/2 of a teaspoon, and then very gradually increase your serving size. If an unpleasant response continues, please discontinue use and call customer service at 800-723-0277.

    Q: Is there anyone who should not use Pure Synergy?

    A: Pure Synergy may be contraindicated for those using blood-thinning or hyper-thyroid medications. Doctors often recommend that people using blood-thinning medications limit their consumption of green, leafy vegetables. Additionally sea vegetables contain iodine, which some doctors ask their patients using hyper-thyroid medication to avoid. Please consult with your physician.

    Q: I have an overgrowth of Candida albicans yeast and have been advised to avoid mushrooms. Does this mean I can’t use Pure Synergy?

    A: The conventionally grown (non-organic) mushrooms in your produce department are often laden with pesticides and fungicides that create problems for many people. Our Synergized® Chinese Mushrooms are organically grown for us in a unique medium of organic millet (other growers use sawdust or soy). Our mushrooms are then meticulously processed to eliminate any molds or yeasts. To enhance the effectiveness of our mushroom blend, we use only the mycelium, and not the fruiting body, or “cap,” as the mycelium are a much richer source of the highly beneficial compounds found in healing mushrooms. The mushrooms in Pure Synergy’s unique Synergized Chinese Mushroom blend have been carefully grown and formulated to offer natural, balancing support to your body’s own immune response. Contrary to popular belief, Chinese mushrooms are actually potent allies in a candida diet.

    Q: Why is my stool green after I drink Pure Synergy?

    A: The green color is from the abundance of chlorophyll found in the juices and algae in Pure Synergy. Chlorophyll is a highly beneficial pigment, rich in nutrients, that enhances the body’s natural purification and cleansing process.

    Q: My stools have become very soft (or more frequent) since I began taking Pure Synergy. Is this normal?

    A: This is normal and beneficial! As your body becomes accustomed to deep nourishment at the cellular level, it begins to eliminate toxins from cells and transports them, along with fluid, to the colon for rapid elimination. For most people, this is a crucial component in creating more radiant health and optimal energy. It is healthy and normal for people to have one or more bowel movements a day.

    Q: What is “cleansing”?

    A: Our bodies naturally eliminate toxins and by-products of metabolism every day. This daily “cleansing” is simply regular, healthy housekeeping! When our cells begin to receive the active enzymes, purifying pigments and vibrant phytonutrients found in Pure Synergy, they then have the cellular energy necessary to eliminate debris and toxins that can interfere with optimal health. As our cells are nurtured and energized, they move these toxins to the colon and skin for elimination. Some people notice softer stool or more frequent bowel movements, or mild itching, rashes or blemishes. People with a history of drug or alcohol use may even experience some flu-like symptoms. Many people who use Pure Synergy don’t experience any noticeable cleansing responses at all! If you have questions about your experience, please call customer service at 800-723-0277. If you are experiencing a cleansing response that feels uncomfortable, simply reduce your serving size of Pure Synergy, and then increase it gradually. Don’t forget your water! It is very important to drink an abundance of water when your body is naturally cleansing.

    Q: I eat the purest foods I can find. Is Pure Synergy organic?

    A: Yes it is — your health matters to us! The Synergy Company is committed to using certified organic and wildcrafted ingredients. Not only does this protect our environment and our bodies from harmful toxins, but it assures optimal nutrition and potency. All our ingredients pass rigorous testing for the presence of pesticides, herbicides, pathogenic bacteria and heavy metals (an indication of previous pesticide or herbicide use). Additionally, Pure Synergy does not contain any fillers or artificial sweeteners, colorings, flavorings, additives or preservatives. We never use chemicals, ever! Moreover, none of the ingredients in Pure Synergy are grown with genetically modified organisms (GMOs).

    Q: There have been so many stories lately about the safety and truth-in-labeling of supplements. How do I know Pure Synergy’s safe?

    A: People have eaten the ingredients in Pure Synergy for thousands of years to nourish and nurture their health. Today, research proves the wisdom of their choice! We enhance and protect these precious ingredients with meticulous testing and processing standards. Our facility is certified to manufacture organic and kosher products. It is also registered with the FDA, and we adhere to good manufacturing practices.

    Q: I’m very concerned about protecting the environment. Is Pure Synergy a “low impact” product?

    A: We share your concern and embrace environmentally responsible practices in all phases of our business. The use of organic ingredients helps to protect environments and habitats all over the planet. Glass packaging not only offers superior protection of the vital nutrients in our products, but it is easily recyclable in almost every community. Our Eco-Foam packing material easily biodegrades, and we use recycled paper for all our printed material, even our labels!

    japanese-sun Pure Synergy’s the finest combination of high-energy foods I’ve yet experienced. It’s superior balance of ingredients are easily assimilated by the body. I recommend it highly to my clients. It’s truly nature’s sunshine in a bottle.
