Introducing Kendy Actiflora+ with Lactobacillus Bulgaricus

New Product announcement!

Kendy Actiflora+: Probiotic, Prebiotic, Synbiotic

We're proud to announce the latest addition to our extensive line of health-enhancing products: Kendy Aciflora+!

One hundred years ago Dr. Elie Metchnikoff (Nobel Prize Winner -- Medicine, 1908) identified the remarkably good health and long life of Bulgarians as being a result of their consumption of food containing probiotic bacteria found only in Bulgaria. Dr. Metchnikoff christened those bacteria Lactobacillus bulgaricus in honor of their only natural home. This was the birth of the field of Probiotics.

Those health benefits are now available to modern consumers through Actiflora Synbiotics by Kendy. Actiflora is the only probiotic containing the original finest strains of Lac. bulgaricus discovered by Dr. Metchnikoff, blended with Acidophilus, Bifido, Strep. thermophilus & Inulin prebiotic for optimum effect.

Clinical studies show that the regular use of probiotics may:
-Support & strengthen our body's immune system by fighting pathogens & maintaining levels of Immunoglobulins A, M, & G.
-Promote correct digestion & absorption of nutrients from food.
-Help maintain normal blood cholesterol levels.
-Help restore & maintain normal gastro-intestinal microflora especially after illness & antibiotic treatment.
-Improve energy levels & general health.
-Help relieve lactose intolerance, acid reflux & Candida.
-Help fight stress related conditions.
-Prevent constipation, bloating, diarrhea & flatulence.
-Overcome skin problems.

Not All Probiotic Bacteria are the Same
-Actiflora+ is characterized by the presence of Kendy's unique and patented strains of Lactobacillus Bulgaricus.
-All our bacteria strains are especially selected for their higher vitality and ability to survive and multiply in the gastro-intestinal system. They can reproduce themselves once every 20 minutes and colonize on the intestinal mucous membrane thereby synthesizing biologically active substances and vital enzymes for a period of 10-12 days.
-After 12 hours in the GI tract just 1 CFU (Colony Forming Unit) of Kendy L.b. can reproduce itself into over 68 billion bacteria.
-None of our bacteria strains have ever been genetically manipulated.
Selection was made only from strains which have existed for hundreds of years or new strains found mainly in the blossom of wild herbs and trees in ecologically protected areas of Bulgaria.
-Actiflora+ products also contain high concentrations of vitamins A, B, C, D, pectin, minerals & trace elements such as calcium, potassium, iron, copper etc.

What makes ACTIFLORA+ so special?
+ All ACTIFLORA products are characterized by the useof Kendy's unique and patented strains of Lac. bulgaricus & Streptococcus thermophilus as their primary probiotic ingredients plus Inulin prebiotic.
+ Kendy products use a patented blend of bacteriaformulated for the fastest possible reproduction in the GI system where they colonize on the intestinal mucousmembrane and synthesize biologically active substances andvital enzymes.
+ After fermentation Kendy do not separate thesupernatant from the live bacteria so there is no filtration or centrifugal separation process. As the supernatant is rich in amino acids, metabolites, vitamins, immuno-stimulators, bacteriocins and other substances beneficial to human health this gives better results than consuming bacteria alone as offered by other probiotic manufacturers .
+ Enteric coating is a compensation for using unsuitable bacteria. Kendy do not enteric coat their probiotic capsules so the bacteria are released into a much larger area of the GI system.

Please allow me to introduce myself

Hi. Let me introduce myself. I'm Lori. The Lori in Lori's Earth Friendly Products. My husband Mason and I are the team behind Lori's Earth Friendly Products. How did we get into this type of business? We are vegetarians and are interested in promoting a healthy lifestyle for our family, our community, and our followers. And we want to do our part in saving the planet. I have been a vegetarian for 30 years. But even before that, my Mom raised me on big salads with wheat germ and lecithin.

Mason is the writer, photographer (he took that picture of me over there on the right), and marketing director. I am the programmer of the website and the kid in the candy store. What do I mean by that? I just launched a website with over 10,000 natural products. I'm so excited I can't decide which one to try next!

Should I try a natural skincare system? How about some volumizing shampoos and conditioners? Look at all these great nutrition bars and snacks that can support my weight-loss journey with Weight Watchers. Or protein bars and protein powders to have before a workout. Maybe we can find some healthy treats for our dog. Look--biodegradable doggie poop bags! Yum--hemp hearts on my salad. It has a great nutty flavor and is packed with nutrients. Let's get some luscious pampering soaps for our friends. I want to try a cutting board and a colander made from recycled food containers. Why don't we plant some edible flowers? Perhaps our kids would like this tasty vitamin powder. Do you get the idea? This just scratches the surface of all the cool products I get to play with.

So even though Mason is the writer and I am the techno geek, I'm going to try lots of products and tell you all about them. Stay tuned....

"Taking vitamins doesn't have to be a hard pill to swallow."

Lori's Stories: alternaVites

alternaVites easy to swallow multivitamins are available from Lori's Earth Friendly Products.

Being the third generation of vitamin formulators, manufacturers, and marketers, Hallie Rich (photo, right) was regularly asked one question: "What vitamins do you take?"

Her surprising answer? "None. I can't swallow pills."

This put her in an awkward position. She had to admit to everyone that she couldn’t benefit from the vitamins that she not only spent years promoting, but also passionately believed in. While she wasn’t experiencing any of the benefits of taking vitamins, she was also very aware that vitamins can’t help if you can’t take them.

For many years, Hallie worked alongside her father and grandmother, where she learned all aspects of their business. Sadly, her father was diagnosed with cancer and despite a heroic fight, he passed away in 2008. Shortly after that, the company's doors shut.

Following her father's passing, Hallie entered a vitamin store as a consumer for the first time and acknowledged the fact that her body needed nutritional support. But since she was unable to swallow pills, her options were limited. Hallie couldn't find a product that had all the nutritional aspects she needed in non-pill form. It suddenly hit Hallie that there was a huge need for a daily vitamin for people just like her.

It turns out she has plenty of company: Over 40% of Americans have difficulty swallowing pills (according to the Society for the Advancement of Education). Hallie was motivated to create a new product, made for those who want to take vitamins, but can't because of the limited options available.

In 2010, she introduced alternaVites, a comprehensive Kosher multivitamin and mineral in crystal powder form that melts quickly in your mouth – the first of its kind. alternaVites quickly became the definitive "non pill" vitamin option and filled an unnecessary void in the market. It was awarded Best New Product 2012 by Vitamin Retailer. 

With its success, it became clear to Hallie that alternaVites is a product that’s great for everybody, not just those of us who have difficulty swallowing pills. Its convenience, delicious taste, portability, and high potency formula give it much broader appeal.

While a children’s product was always part of the plan, Hallie and her team were overwhelmed with requests to develop an alternaVites formula that would be suitable for kids. Understandably, parents were equally as unhappy with the choices available for their children as they were for themselves. They were disappointed in products with high sugar content, incomplete formulas, and artificial ingredients. She developed alternaVites Kids, a children’s multivitamin and mineral supplement that has awesome kid-approved flavors while maintaining the integrity, quality and versatility associated with the original alternaVites formula.

With alternaVites, Hallie has eliminated the excuses of adults and children not to take the daily dosage of vitamins, even if they don't swallow pills. Rich Vitamins, LLC, the parent company of alternaVites, donates a portion of every box that's sold to cancer charities in memory of Hallie's father.

Lori's Earth Friendly Products is proud to carry alternaVites.
