X-Balance, a New Chocolate-Flavored Drink for Kids that Supplies Antioxidant Power of 8 Servings of Fruits and Vegetables

10/11/06 An all natural, chocolate-flavored nutritional drink has been introduced to give kids and parents a delicious and simple solution to daily nutrition and health demands.

According to Jan Lovejoy, the creator of X-Balance (http://www.sgnnutrition.com) nutritional drink, there are significant health issues that threaten the well-being of children today. A perfect example is the consumption of sugar in America, which has risen to unprecedented levels and has become a leading factor for the increase in obesity and diabetes in children.

"We formulated X-Balance to help to decrease the need for sugary foods that many children crave; its pleasant sweet chocolate taste satisfies the cravings for sugar while supplying the nutrients and antioxidant power of eight servings of fruits and vegetables doctors recommend," said Lovejoy.

Some of the other health issues that Lovejoy outlines include the fact that kids today are not eating enough fruits and vegetables; diets high in glucose; and the increased risk of high cholesterol and triglycerides levels found in the average American diet.

X-Balance comes in powder form -- mix with milk, soy milk or water. Available nationwide at The Vitamin Shoppe and online at http://www.sgnnutrition.com.

X-Balance addresses top health risks for kids:

* Not eating enough fruits and vegetables. X-Balance has the antioxidant power of 8-10 servings of vegetables and fruits.

*  Increased toxicity of pollutants in our environment and foods. The drink contains completely safe sea vegetables and detoxifying herbs.

*  Constant contact with other children heightens the risks of viruses and colds. Contains immune supporting herbs and probiotics.

*  Allergies. X-Balance has added natural accruing histamines.

*  Diets consisting of high glucose levels. The average American diet is loaded with bread and sugar which tax the body's ability to maintain level blood glucose levels. The herbs in X-Balance help fight the extreme highs and lows in diets.

*  Digestion problems. The drink is beneficial in helping to keep toxins flowing through the intestines.

*  Increased risk of high cholesterol and triglycerides levels. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables helps the body keep a good balance of LDL and HDL cholesterol levels.
