This slogan reflects a major government-industry campaign to encourage people to eat more fruits and vegetables. Studies by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the National Academy of Sciences suggest that the nutritional goodness of fruits and vegetables, with a diet that is low in fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol, and that contains plenty of whole-grain breads and cereals, may decrease certain serious health issues. The U.S.D.A. and Department of Health and Human Services’ Food Guide Pyramid recommends 3 to 5 servings of vegetables and 2 to 4 servings of fruit per day.
Experts say that as many as 42% of the population are eating less than this amount!

How can Vegiberries help?
“Phytofoods” that exist in Vegiberries can supply us with the best possible protection against free radicals.
During photosynthesis (the botanical conversion of H2O and CO2 into carbohydrates by means of sunlight), a huge number of free radicals are produced. Plants need strong antioxidants to protect against cellular damage by these free radicals. Antioxidant plant pigments, primarily carotenoids and flavonoids, provide most of the protection. Research has shown that human ingestion of these compounds results in similar protection.
The powerful health benefits of REAL fruits and vegetables are attributed to the high levels of plant compounds called Polyphenols. Polyphenols are powerful flavonoid antioxidants which help protect us from the damaging effects of excess free radicals. Just 550mg of Vegiberries provides 3000 ORAC units! This powerhouse blend provides quality antioxidants from concentrates, plus a liberal helping of fully-intact whole fruit and vegetable phytochemicals from concentrated freeze-dried fruit powders.
Vegiberries may provide:
High ORAC value
Energy enhancement
Strengthening of cells
Promotion of healthy heart and brain function
Promotion of healthy vision
Regulation of blood sugar levels
An excellent source of flavonoids and organic acids
Vista, Calif.; July 14, 2008 – Actress and best-selling author Jenny McCarthy has established herself as a tireless crusader in the search for a cure for autism and advocate for nutritional regimens to help manage the disease.
McCarthy incorporated the Global Health Trax™ (GHT) flagship specialty probiotic product, ThreeLac™, into her autistic son’s nutritional regimen and shared her experience in her recently published book Louder than Words: A Mother’s Journey in Healing Autism. ThreeLac™ probiotic is a fungal and yeast-recovery/reduction product providing selected beneficial microflora to the intestinal tract, and it is distributed exclusively through Global Health Trax. Many parents of autistic children have adopted nutritional therapies and diet changes including what is known as a gluten-free, casein-free (GFCF) diet which restricts wheat and milk products.
In 2002 McCarthy gave birth to Evan who as an infant was full of life, making eye contact and smiling, but at age two Evan began having seizures. After countless doctors’ visits, a neurologist gave Jenny what she described as a devastating diagnosis; Evan had autism.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, one in every 150 children born in the United States has autism and it is estimated approximately one million in the U.S. have this disorder. Autism is the fastest-growing developmental disability in the U.S. today.
With no known cure to this disease, McCarthy embarked on a mission to improve her son’s life and health. Her unwavering determination and refusal to settle for a “no cure” diagnosis prompted her to do extensive research that led her to GHT ThreeLac probiotic. On page 200 of her book, McCarthy writes, “This is the stuff that really made Evan excrete yeast and start talking more.”
Global Health Trax (GHT) supports the autism community’s efforts to raise awareness and advance investigation of the disease’s causes.
“We admire and praise the autism community and Jenny McCarthy for their inspiring passion and commitment to find help for this heart-breaking disorder,” said Global Health Trax President & CEO Tom Dixson, Co-Founder and former CEO of Petco. “Global Health Trax is proud to know that so many families including Jenny’s have chosen GHT nutraceuticals including ThreeLac for their nutritional regimen, and we are honored to help underwrite the fundraising and awareness campaigns of Generation Rescue.”

While visiting family this past Easter Weekend, I discovered that a family member had been suffering from a severe case of Congestive Heart Failure. From what I was told, the doctor thought the case to be the worst he had seen. The doctor did not expect a good survival report, based on the patient’s condition. Using common sense, I could clearly see that the patient did not look well at all. I immediately recommended and began administering a regimen I used that worked for me with my health challenge. I asked that consideration be given consistently for at least 30 days. If benefit was not derived, no love lost, at least good nutrition would not hurt.
Late April 2008, I received a telephone call, with much excitement. I was told that after visting the doctor, the patient’s vital signs had improved remarkably, so much so, the doctor thought the patient’s chart had been switched in some way. According to the original report just 30 days prior, there was no way this could be the same patient.
When I saw the patient in March, Easter weekend, mobility was limited, appetite was suppressed, eyes were glassy, droopy and weak, etc. Now the patient is running the track, fixing cars, going about day-to-day activities. What a miraculous recovery in such a short time!! The body was apparently lacking nutrients and the LIQUID NUTRIENTS went to work and made an awesome difference. MIRACLES DO HAPPEN!! A little faith, that of a mustard seed, coupled with a desire to live, and a williness to exercise a change in mindset, made the difference between “Life” and “Death”. The cellular structure being compromised, was weaken and damaged. In order for wellness to take place, the cells had to be revitalized. Revitalization could began with cleansing and nourishment, i.e. fresh veggies, fruit, nuts, water, vitamins, minerals, oxygenation, enzymes, moderate exercise, etc. According to the Masses, NUTRITION FOR WELLNESS, IS JUST TOO SIMPLE!! People want to complicate the matter, and because of our brainwashed mindset, it’s difficult to comprehend that God did not complicate things, He kept them very simple. God designed our bodies so that if we provide them with the things that He (God) provided for nourishment, our bodies will “HEAL ITSELF”. Man has complicated matters and destroyed the simplicities of life.
Join with me, and let’s get back to the basics, in an effort to combat health disorders that are treatable, and start securing our Health and Wellness future, and that of our children…… and perhaps, you too, can experience, what I call…….. a “REAL-TIME MIRACLE”!!
Global Health Trax joined Jenny McCarthy, along with Jim Carrey, in the Quest to fight “Autism”. Jenny speaks about “THREELAC” in her book “Louder Than Words” the probiotic she used to assist in her son’s recovery from Autism.
