10 Reasons to Drink O.N.E. Coconut Water Daily
America’s New Favorite Drink Provides a Health Boost at Every Age and Stage

March 2010, Los Angeles, California -- O.N.E Coconut Water is the #1 selling beverage in its category for 2009 and touted as one of the Top 100 Products to Watch in 2010 by the global marketing company JWT. Here’s how it benefits adults and children alike and why it should be a staple in every American household:

1. Perfect Hydration: Water from the young green coconut is nature’s perfect isotonic beverage and optimum hydrator. At every age and stage of our lives, there are times when stress on our system causes us to become dehydrated. Illness, exercise, environment, pregnancy, aging, over-drinking – all cause us to lose the essential electrolytes found in our blood naturally. We need to replace them regularly to prevent headaches, muscle cramping, fatigue, and to help our heart, nerves and muscles to function optimally. O.N.E. Coconut Water contains all five electrolytes found in the blood including calcium, sodium, phosphorous, magnesium and potassium.

2. It’s 100 % PURE: O.N.E. Coconut Water has ONE ingredient! There are NO additives at all: no corn syrup, added sugar or artificial sweeteners; no metal contaminants; no dyes; no caffeine; no preservatives; no colorings and no concentrates. It is fat and cholesterol free and contains no wheat, gluten or other food allergens. Packaged straight from the coconut into airtight aseptic Tetra Pak cartons, it stays fresh and protected from the destabilizing effects of light and oxygen for 10 months.

3. Optimum Body Functioning: Unlike tropical juices and many brands of bottled water, coconut water is alkaline --it soothes and balances our systems. By improving the absorption of all nutrients--vitamins, minerals and amino acids, it allows the body to digest with greater efficiency. As a result, it reduces the occurrence of constipation, relieves stress on the pancreas and enzyme systems, regulates sodium and supports kidney function. Animal studies show that coconut water consumption reduces plaque formation in the arteries which in turn reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke. There is also evidence to suggest that it promotes healthy blood pressure levels and cardiovascular function.

4. Super Support During Pregnancy and Lactation: Pregnancy isn’t easy on a woman’s body-- morning sickness, heartburn, weight gain, constipation, stretch marks and fluid retention are all related to poor hydration, which is why The Institute of Medicine recommends ten cups of fluid per day. Coconut water is an ideal source of hydration, improving circulation, digestion, and Ph balance. Since fluids improve skin elasticity, the chances of stretch marks are diminished. Additionally, fluids aid in the absorption of water-soluble vitamins like ascorbic acid and the B vitamins which are crucial to fetal development. Doctors recommend 13 cups of fluid daily for lactating women, making coconut water a natural all-purpose option.

5. An Essential Aid When Kids Are Sick: When infants and children vomit or have diarrhea from intestinal flu or other stomach ailments, they too lose precious essential electrolytes which must be replaced rapidly to prevent dehydration. Many pediatric drinks contain dyes and are high in sugar which poses other health issues. O.N.E. Coconut Water has a refreshing natural taste without added sugars, a plus since pediatricians (and legislators) now recommend parents reduce the amount of sweetened drinks their children consume to help them develop a taste for non-sweetened beverages.

6. Revitalizes the Elderly: Dehydration in the aged is a growing concern for doctors. An overall lack of proper diet is a typical syndrome with the elderly and this includes a lack of adequate fluid intake which impacts circulation and blood pressure. Many older people are also taking drugs that increase urine output which in turn increases dehydration. The loss of minerals and carbohydrates exacerbates a host of other issues, including glaucoma, so a daily dose of coconut water benefits the aging in myriad ways.

7. The Definitive Sports Drink: O.N.E. Coconut Water is excellent for naturally replacing electrolytes and glucose lost during exercise, especially potassium which regulates sodium in the body. Potassium positively affects circulation, body temperature, heart function and blood pressure-- issues related to extreme levels of exercise. O.N.E. Coconut Water contains 15 times the potassium of most sports drinks and two times more than a banana! And, because it promotes rapid absorption by speeding fluids to the muscles, it keeps athletes, and anyone who exercises, fully refreshed for practice and performance.

8. An Indispensable Travel Companion: Coconut water rehydrates during travel all year long. Light weight Tetra Pak cartons slip into a handbag or backpack effortlessly, making them easy to take anywhere. For those with existing circulatory problems and swollen limbs, potassium is especially crucial during air travel. In fact, The American Medical Association found that beverages containing electrolytes and carbohydrates are more effective than water for Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), making O.N.E. Coconut Water a great beverage to drink just before boarding a plane (you can find O.N.E. Coconut Water at airports across the country, including JFK and LAX).

9. A Natural Beauty Boost: Coconut water keeps skin soft, supple and smooth by hydrating naturally at the cellular level. It is known to relieve dry itchy skin and can even be used on a cotton ball as a toner to soothe and refresh. The use of a chemical and additive-free beauty aid is also a huge benefit to the body.

10. A Hangover Helper: Alcohol is a diuretic which depletes minerals needed for the body to function normally. It also causes acids to accumulate in the stomach and intestines which inflames the stomach lining resulting in heartburn. The alkaline Ph of coconut water soothes the digestive tract and helps the liver and kidney filter out toxins. O.N.E. Coconut Water quickly replenishes electrolytes and increases hydration, a life-saver when suffering from the ill-effects of consuming too much alcohol.

And finally, because we couldn’t stop at 10....

11. O.N.E. Coconut Water is socially responsible. O.N.E., One Natural Experience, is committed to the environment through its packaging and via a business model which promotes global sustainability. O.N.E. also supports community outreach, and as such has partnered with Healthy Child, Healthy World, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting children and families from harmful environmental exposure through cleaner and greener lifestyles.

O.N.E. Cashew Fruit Testimonial

We love to hear what you think of O.N.E!
Send us YOUR testimonial, and win a case of free O.N.E. drinks!

My parents are from Honduras. Throughout my life I visited Honduras. In our back yard we use to have a cashew tree. I love the fruit! I would always plead with my parents to send me on a visit to Honduras when the cashew fruit was in season. Well I am an adult now with responsibilites and can only go to Honduras when vacation time permits. Usually that is not the time when the cashew fruit is in season. Today my sister went to a function for cancer survivors (She is a breast cancer survivor).; samples of the jucie were being distributed. She asked me, "Lisa do you want juice." I told her "yes". She handed me this package that said "cashew fruit." I screamed in excitement. Quickly I opened the container. With every sip of that juice, each and every memory of my time spent in the backyard in Honduras around the cashew fruit tree came to life. This juice is delicious! It taste just like the fruit directly from the tree. I searched to see where I can find the juice both in New York and Atlanta. I will be purchasing a container soon! Your casherw fruit juice brought a beautiful, vivid, memory of me in my backyard in Honduras to life! Thank you.

O.N.E. Amazon Acai and Free Radicals

Acai Berry Juice


According to data from the USDA, the Acai berries ORAC value (antioxidant capabilities) is 200-750% higher then any other fruit or vegetable. Science has linked Free Radicals as forces to such diseases as, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, aging, and many more.

"Don't underestimate the threat free radicals pose to our health. Scientists now believe that free radicals are casual factors in nearly every known disease, from heart disease to arthritis to cancer to cataracts. In fact, free radicals are a major culprit in the aging process itself. By controlling free radicals, anti-oxidants can make the difference between life and death, as well as influence how fast and how well we age"

A quote from Lester Packer, Head of Packer Laboratory -Dept. of Molecular and Cell Biology from, The University of Calf. at Berkeley.

So the evidence of what free radicals can do is now a fact, proven by modern science. Also proven is the fact that antioxidants are the solution to controlling and eliminating them, and preventing the damage they do to our bodies.

What are free radicals and healthy cells

Cells are made up of many atoms. When these atoms are healthy, they make an exact copy of themselves to keep the body healthy. What makes a healthy atom is the fact they have paired (2) electrons. Free radicals are atoms that only have one (1) electron. They go around stealing electrons from healthy cells, thus destroying and damaging them. When these damaged cells replicate, they make an exact copy of an un-healthy cell, thus leading to disease and premature aging.

Through modern science, we know that almost all known diseases and ailments are a direct result of what we are feeding, or not feeding are bodies.

SomeO.N.E.'s Talking About Vitamins

We all know that One Natural Experience offers a line of functional beverages to keep you in top performance, but do we really know WHY we need vitamins and antioxidants? Let's take a look!

Antioxidants battle free radicals - the enemies of beauty. Produced by normal metabolism as well as toxins and pollutants, these unstable oxygen molecules attack cells and break them down, leading to signs of aging. Unfortunately, as we age, our bodies lose the ability to absorbe compounds that can act as antioxidants. That's where vitamins come in.

Vitamin A
Vitamin A is fundamental to the maintenance of tissues that make up the surface of the skin, says Lisa Drayer, R.D. in The Beauty Diet (McGraw-Hill, 2009). She also says that Vitamin A helps produce and protect the scalp's natural oil.
Vitamin A can be found in O.N.E. Cashew Fruit,

Vitamin C
Not only does Vitamin C neutralize free radicals, it is also a nesessary ingredient for the production of collagen, the fibers underneath the skin that keep it firm.
Vitamin C can be found in O.N.E. Cashew Fruit, O.N.E. Coffee Fruit, and O.N.E. Amazon Acai.

Açaí Is Nature's Top Superfood Based On Antioxidants
Author: Haley 22

Dec

The Amazon which is called the earth's lungs shelters many species of living things. Its large green mushroom-like canopy produces air that the rest of the world breathes. A tiny berry fruit known as Açaí that comes from palm trees in the Amazon river banks distinguishes itself from several wild fruits. Acai berry has become a fast-growing herbal therapy in the world. It's acai's rich concentration of anti-oxidants, among all the nutrients and vitamins it contains, that makes it a wonder medicine and super food too. Dr. Nicholas Perricone, being a world specialist on anti-aging matter, touted acai as "super food." This added to its rising popularity outside the US and South America.

This anti-oxidant concentration is what makes Acai juice strike out all toxins from your body. Through being an aid in metabolism and digestion, acai purifies your system. Anti-oxidants are known to be free radicals or radical cells' nemesis. You get these free radicals from the air, from stress, and they even get to you from food. WrinkIed skin, back pains, black spots, and other signs of aging can be brought on by these radical cells. Cancer can be a result of too many radical cells in the body. Acai berry contains a huge amount of anthocyanin which is good but other than that it contains flavonoid-like compounds that help to fight against radical cells. That's why acai floored a lot of fruits when tested for anti-oxidants and potency. Compared to mulberry, noni, guava, pineapple, cupuaco, and even mangosteen, its scores were better.

The anti-oxidants in Açaí travel fast in our bloodstreams; thus, it's able to get through radical cells' plasma and membrane within 120 minutes after drinking it. Using it is not the same as waiting for 14 months to pass when you want to strike out dark skin blemishes by using night cream or when you use Botox to tighten your wrinkled face.

However, being a super food doesn't only mean having mighty anti-oxidants. Acai earned the prefix "super" since it contains a lot of nutrients and vitamins that only tons of food sources can provide. Well, you see, if you needed to keep your blood cholesterol down, you go for fish since it has the healthy fats Omega 3, 6, and 9. As years gone by and you're more feeble to fight off diseases, you boost your immune system as you increase your vitamin C content by eating a lot of oranges and other citrus fruits. With acai berry, it only requires a healthy acai food supplement or an acai health juice and it's the same as you gained all of them.

O.N.E. Coffee Berry - a great source of antioxidants

Thank you to Martin Day's Fitness & Food Tips Blog for this great article on the coffee berry.

Amazing Little Known Antioxident

I bet you didn’t know that one of the most potent antioxidants around has been thrown away for years in the rubbish bin?

Most people know that blueberries, pomegranate, red wine, green tea, and even coffee are potent sources of antioxidants… but the coffee-berry (the berry that covers the coffee bean) is actually one of the most powerful antioxidants you can get.

Up until recently, most of the “coffee-berry” was just seen as waste and thrown away. In recent years, researchers have discovered the super-antioxidant abilities of coffee-berry and are now making it available as an antioxidant supplement.

Of course, we know that getting high levels of antioxidants in your diet is important for fighting the free-radicals involved in aging, cancer risk, and other degenerative diseases — as well as supporting a healthy immune system, and skin protection.

Brazilian Acai Absorbs Much Better Than Any Other Fruit

 

Green Bay, WI (PRWEB) November 14, 2008 -- Though very little research has been done on the Amazonian wonder berry, its benefits are widely raved about from personalities to medical experts. The first of its research conducted by the Texas AgriLife Research scientists have found out that the acai (ah-sigh-EE) berry has the ability to be absorbed in the human body when consumed both as juice and pulp. This finding was recently published in an issue of the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.


Acai Berry Goodness
The research states that the Brazilian acai berry absorbed much better than any other fruit or food because of its high content of antioxidants. Because of this one super benefit, the berry is heavily marketed in the U.S. as a health food and has even entered the Dr. Perricone's list of super foods. The research conducted involved 12 healthy volunteers who consumed a single serving of acai juice or pulp.

Principal investigator Dr. Susanne Talcott said "Acai is naturally low in sugar, and the flavor is described as a mixture of red wine and chocolate, so what more would you want from a fruit?" Talcott, who also is assistant professor with the Texas A&M University's nutrition and food science department, said that previous studies have shown the ability of the human body to absorb target antioxidants (from other produce), but "no one had really tested to see if acai antioxidants are absorbed in humans."

Since being touted as a metabolism booster, weight reducer and athletic enhancer, sales of acai products have dramatically increased in the U.S. These berries are considered exotic- being harvested in the Brazilian rainforest from acai palms that may reach heights in excess of 60 feet - one of the same palms used to harvest edible hearts of palm. Talcott noted that the size of the fruit is similar to a large blueberry with only the outermost layers of the fruit and the pulp surrounding the seed are edible.

Talcott and her co-researcher and husband Dr. Steve Talcott began studying the palm- berry in 2001. His first scientific report on acai, apparently the first such study in English, was published in 2004. Initial research done on the acai was done to examine the antioxidant and nutritional values of the pulp and juice, with later studies focused on the benefits of the berry in fighting cancer. Since the benefits of fighting cancer was found, the researchers then decided to find out whether those elements were actually being absorbed into the human body or being eliminated unused as waste. Says Steve Talcott, "Like vitamin C, the body can only absorb so much at a time."

What Are Free Radicals?

Adapted from an article in The Share Guide July/August 2008 by Gary Null, Ph.D.

Free radicals are molecules that have an unpaired electron, which makes them capable of damaging cells, tissues, and organs. These dangerous molecules can weaken many vital aspects of body functioning, including our cardiovascular, neurological, and immune systems.

A growing body of research shows that free radicals contribute to the aging process and to a long list of disorders, including heart disease and cancer, which now rank as two of the leading killers in our society.

The Origin of Free Radicals
Once a free radical if formed, it will try to restore its balance by stealing an electron from another molecule. Every time a molecule loses an electron, it may damage a healthy molecule in the process. As a result, the body's normal function will be impaired. A single free radical can destroy an enzyme, a protein molecule, or an entire cell.

Free radicals can stem from external pollutants or from our internal biochemical processes. The main sources are the environment, internal production, and pathology, stressors on the body systems.

The environment is full of toxins that either contain free radicals themselves, or generate free radicals after we breathe or swallow the substances. Free radicals form chain reactions. An initial free radical may form a second unbalanced free radical, which produces a third, and so on. If this chain reaction is not stopped, cellular damage may occur.

Assisting The Body's Defense Mechanisms
We must continually strive to balance the events taking place in the molecules of our bodies. The foods we eat and the drinks we drink are our first line of defense against free radicals, because they provide the body with nutritional support. We must obtain an adequate supply of the vitamins that contribute to the body's defenses against oxidant imbalance.
We need to take antioxidants, most commonly vitamins C, E, and A, such as those found in One Natural Experience drinks: O.N.E. Amazon Acai and O.N.E. Cashew Fruit...

O.N.E. Amazon Acai, the amazing "superfruit"

Why is this fruit causing so much of a stir among nutrition experts? For starters, the Acai berry has twice the antioxidant content of blueberries and ten times that of red grapes. These antioxidants found in Acai are more long lasting in effect as well. The Acai contains a lot of fatty acids, including oleic acid, which can reduce cholesterol levels. The University of Florida has done studies on the fruit, finding that the Acai berry also has compounds called polyphenolics which can slow down the progress of leukemia. The Acai berry is at the top of the “super foods” list because it: has anti-inflammatory properties, lowers cholesterol, helps your body burn excess fat, regulates metabolism, lowers blood pressure and cholesterol, protects against cancer and heart disease, promotes digestive health and gives you energy too!

O.N.E.™ Amazon Açaí is a delicious and healthy natural beverage made from fresh Açaí fruit grown naturally (wild crafted) in the middle of the Amazon Rainforest.
