Our Organic Oat Grass Powder is harvested when the tender shoots are at the peak of their nutritional potency, enzymatic activity and chlorophyll content. The plants are washed, with a selection of only the finest shoots to be made into powder. The selected shoots are then briefly blanched to prevent loss of colour, flavour and as a method of killing any unwanted bacteria. They are then specially dehydrated and stone ground into a fine powder. Absolutely no chemical pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers are used for this premium organic product. This whole process complies with GMP standards and is quality assured by Indigo Herbs.
Proteins are a group of biological compounds which are present in every live cell, organ and tissue of the body. Meaning “first” or “of prime importance” in Greek, proteins participate in every cellular process occurring in the body. Proteins are made up of structures called amino acids, there are a total of 21 amino acids, 9 are essential, the rest are nonessential – you must consume the essential amino acids in your diet because your body cannot make them.
Dietary protein supports bone health in three main ways: by supplying the raw material required to construct soft bone matrix, by increasing plasma IGF1 and by promoting muscle growth and retention. IGF1 is a growth hormone that stimulates and increases the activity of osteoblasts (cells which secrete the substance of bone). It is especially important to ensure that children get enough protein since they are still developing and it is necessary to ensure their growth is unimpaired. Proteins play an important role in muscle contraction and coordination, they are present in the muscle tissues in the form of many microfilaments and provide muscle structure. Muscle growth depends on the adequacy of proteins in the body. Proteins function as building blocks for muscles, bones and cartilage, opt for a variety of whole foods to meet your protein needs including; grass fed meat and poultry, eggs, dairy, seeds, beans and nuts.
Protein contributes to:
· the maintenance of normal bones
· a growth in muscle mass
· the maintenance of muscle mass
· Protein is needed for normal growth and development of bone in children.
