I recently heard from a trusted expert in the field of nutrition that it isn’t so much “you are what you eat” as, “we are what we absorb”…

Think about that for a moment…

That is true on so many planes right now from the energy, and environment and friends we are exposed to, to of course what we consume. Now you are here for nutrition, so this is where we are going to focus in this article… and I couldn’t be more excited to share with you a new product line just launched by doTERRA for foundational nutritional support!

doTERRA Protein, doTERRA Fiber, & doTERRA Greens

doTERRA Protein

It seems like everyone is talking about protein these days, as a matter of fact over 40% of Americans currently use a protein supplement daily. It can be daunting and confusing to sort through all the protein powder options on the market and know which source you should trust to fuel your body.

dōTERRA’s mission to Pursue What’s Pure carries over to all products, including the scientifically studied ingredients sourced to formulate the quality offering of dōTERRA Proteins.

Even if we are careful with what we put into our bodies and intentional with our diet, we may not be getting enough of certain nutrients, like protein. dōTERRA Proteins were specifically formulated to supplement areas of the modern diet that fall short in providing fuel to our body. Protein is an important macronutrient and crucial for building muscle, managing appetite, and helping the body recover after workouts.*

Protein is also necessary to provide the body with energy and stamina to perform functions like building cells and support a healthy immune system response.*

Reducing sugar consumption is also an important aspect of improving your diet and overall health. dōTERRA Protein is sugar free and a great tool to use in a Keto or other high protein/low carb diets.

dōTERRA VEGAN PROTEIN

Supplementing protein is especially important for those who live a vegan lifestyle and that’s why dōTERRA also offers an option for those who require plant-sourced protein.

dōTERRA Vegan Protein contains 21g of a protein blend of sources such as pea, brown rice, pumpkin seed, sacha inchi, and flax seed. When eating a plant-based diet, it is important to consume protein from a variety of sources to receive a profile of all 20 amino acids and that’s exactly what dōTERRA Vegan Protein delivers.

doTERRA Fiber

Fad diets are a popular trend and most focus on consuming high amounts of protein and low amounts of carbohydrates. This unbalance can wreak havoc on our fiber intake!

According to the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine, even with a healthy diet, most people only get half the amount of fiber they need. The FDA recommends 25–38 grams of dietary fiber every day depending on age, weight, and gender.*

That’s a lot of raw vegetables and bowls of oatmeal! dōTERRA Fiber was created as a convenient and delicious way to supplement your fiber intake. One serving of dōTERRA Fiber provides six grams of soluble and insoluble fiber, CPTG® Lemon essential oil, natural vitamin C, and a unique prebiotic blend.

dōTERRA Fiber is sourced from whole food sources like apple, tapioca, and flax seed to support a healthy and regular digestive system, control appetite, and support the metabolic process.*

Fiber is a fantastic macronutrient that supports many different health functions within the body, not just the digestive system, including the cardiovascular and the immune systems.*

The importance of a healthy gut microbiome and its relation to the immune system has recently become an area of scientific studies. Research has shown much of your immune system can be found in the GI tract. The addition of the special prebiotic blend in dōTERRA Fiber provides food for probiotics in the gut to support a healthy microbiome and immune system.*

The prebiotic blend contains Fructooligosaccharide from chicory root and
Jerusalem artichoke, Isomaltooligosaccharide, and Xylooligosaccharide. dōTERRA TerraZyme® and PB Assist+® also support the microbiome and dōTERRA Fiber is the perfect addition to your digestive and immune health
regimen.*

Add dōTERRA Fiber to water for a delicious lemon-apple flavored drink as a no-excuses approach to meet your digestive health and wellness goals. dōTERRA Fiber is a daily essential for everyone.

PRIMARY BENEFITS

• Contains high potency vitamin C
• Helps maintain a healthy microbiome*
• Promotes healthy digestive function*
• May support cardiovascular health*
• May support the immune system*
• May help support metabolic processes*
• May support weight management goals*

doTERRA Greens

Do you hate eating vegetables!? I still live with adults who believe corn is a vegetable and that is the only one that doesn’t get some push back here.

There are many reasons you may not be getting the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables in your diet. It’s expensive, preparation can be time consuming, and you may feel unsure of how much you really need to eat.

According to the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention, less than one out of every three adults eats the recommended amount of fruit per day, and over 70 percent do not meet guidelines for vegetable consumption.

dōTERRA Greens was created to supplement your fruits and vegetables intake with responsibly sourced, wholesome ingredients. dōTERRA Greens is a convenient and tasty way to provide your body with essential nutrients and dietary fiber to enhance overall wellness.*

With pure, plant-sourced, and nourishing ingredients, dōTERRA Greens supports healthy immune function, digestion, weight management, and energy.*

A mix of superfoods are packed in dōTERRA Greens to provide
you a nutritious boost. One scoop of dōTERRA Greens powder provides the nutritional equivalency of approximately one to two servings of fruits and vegetables.*

Key ingredients include moringa, acai, cabbage, collard greens, dandelion, kale, parsley, spinach leaf, alfalfa, barley grass, oat grass, pineapple, mango, goji-berry, as well as Lemon and Ginger CPTG® essential oils.*

dōTERRA Greens is easy to use and can be enjoyed daily in a smoothie or simply mixed with water. The powder is a mixed berry flavor and naturally sweetened with monk fruit.

Pursue optimal health with a convenient, comprehensive nutrition solution: dōTERRA Greens.*

NUTRITION QUESTIONS

1. What type of protein is used?
   a. Chocolate and Vanilla: Whey protein concentrate and casein.
   b. Vegan: pea, brown rice, flaxseed, Sacha inchi, and pumpkin seed.
2. Is there any soy in the products?
   a. All of the new products are soy free.
3. Are these safe for pregnant and lactating women?
   a. We recommend any women who are pregnant or lactating inform their physician about their use of our products and to follow their physician’s advice. However, when used appropriately, we know of no contradictions that would prevent someone from using dōTERRA products.
4. Why are the new products not labeled as organic?
   a. Pursuing organic certification was something we considered. However, our current quality control processes and analytical testing provide an equivalent benefit as organic certification. Additionally, pursuing organic certification would increase the cost of the product, and we decided to prioritize affordability to keep these products as accessible as possible for all.
5. Are all the dо̄TERRA Protein flavors gluten free?
   a. Yes, all of the dо̄TERRA Protein options (Chocolate, Vanilla, and Vegan) are certified gluten free. The oat flour included in these products is sourced from a specific plant in Ireland that has very strict gluten controls in place.
6. Are the Fiber and Greens gluten free?
   a. While they are not certified gluten-free, we have verified that all the ingredients in these two products are free of gluten. (and all other allergens except for dairy which is in the vanilla and chocolate whey protein shakes).
7. Why are sweeteners added to the products?
   a. Monk fruit and stevia—which are both natural sweeteners—were added to the dо̄TERRA Nutrition products to help them be delicious as stand-alone mixes.
8. Do the ingredients follow our sourcing practices?
   a. As with all our products, these new products follow dо̄TERRA’s commitment to best sourcing practices. We avoid any questionable supply chain sources and follow the same rigid testing standards (potency, purity, contaminants, etc.) that we hold ourselves to
   with all our products.
9. Are any products being discontinued once this new line launches?
   a. Yes, dо̄TERRA Protein will replace all Slim and Sassy Trim Shakes, and dо̄TERRA Greens is the new, improved version of TERRAGreens. doTERRA Fiber is a new product and therefore will not be replacing any current products we offer.
10. Are these products safe for children to consume?
    a. While the Nutrition products were designed with the nutritional needs of adults in mind, these products were made using whole food ingredients that can be found in the daily diet of adults and children. Though all of the Nutritional products should generally be safe for children, we recommend that parents adjust serving sizes for children as
    they see necessary.
11. Are the greens and fiber Vegan?
    a. Yes, the Greens and Fiber are both vegan.
12. What flavor is the Vegan protein?
    a. The Vegan protein is vanilla flavored.
13. What flavor is the Vegan protein?
    a. The Vegan protein is vanilla flavored.
14. Why did we include Maltodextrin?
    a. Maltodextrin is used as an excipient (processing aid or carrier or incidental additive) and is a crucial ingredient for the production process. The maltodextrin used to produce dо̄TERRA supplements is sourced from natural sources like corn, wheat, cassava or tapioca root and is used in very small amounts. dо̄TERRA is transparent with our product labeling and this is why you see maltodextrin listed on our supplement labels and may not see it included on supplement labels from other companies.
15. What are the natural flavors?
    a. Instead of listing 5-10 different flavor components (I.e., the Vanilla flavor- there is vanilla extract, vanillin, and other natural flavors that contribute to give that desired vanilla flavor) we list it as natural flavor.
16. Why did we include Oat Flour?
    a. We included this as an additional source of protein and fiber, as well as a source of beta-glucan. In a crowded protein space, this unique source of protein and fiber helps to differentiate our product, providing a nice taste and mouthfeel along with the benefits of beta-glucan, all while being certified gluten-free (at 10 ppm, which is tighter than the
    industry requirement of 20 ppm).
    b. The oat flour we are using is independently verified to be gluten-free by Gluten Watchdog and is certified by the Celiac Societies of Ireland, the UK, and Spain.
17. What are the serving sizes?
    a. Vanilla Protein: 1 serving is 37g; 20 servings total
    b. Chocolate Protein: 1 serving is 41g; 20 servings total
    c. Vegan Protein: 1 serving is 39g; 20 servings total

    a. The vanilla and chocolate whey proteins contain dairy. The Vegan protein, Greens, and Fiber are all dairy free.
20. Is this a meal replacement?
    a. This product is a protein supplement, not a meal replacement. It can be used as a base for a meal replacement depending on what you add to it to boost caloric and nutritional intake.
21. Which Markets can purchase these new items?
    a. These kits are available for the US market, participating NFR markets, and GAC.
22. Why are the doTERRA Greens and Fiber 30 servings, while the doTERRA Proteins are 20 servings?
    a. The amount of servings included in the packages align with the Recommended Dietary Allowance for protein in the average adult, reinforcing and contributing to making strong daily routines.
23. What is the difference between the new Greens and TerraGreens?
