Why supplement?

Marked asPrimarySupporting

Primary

Help blood lipids with toona-shoot polyphenols

Young-leaf extracts have been watched in trials against triglycerides and antioxidant enzymes. People who love spring wild greens and have a sticky mouth after meals more often notice waist sensation after several continuous weeks. The spring-shoot window is short; lipids and sticky mouth should be watched over several continuous weeks.

Supporting

Increase tree-shoot micronutrients

Vitamins and nitrate-type compounds make toona a short-season green. People who eat few seasonal shoots more often notice breath and spirits after several continuous weeks. Tree shoots carry nitrate and vitamins together; breath often clears first. This toona path is easier to match with everyday sensations after several continuous days to weeks.
