Essentially to add live vegan probiotic to its bestselling Essential Green and Deep Green Juices from January 2017

Dubai, 12 December, 2016: New Year’s resolutions to stress less or diet more? Make one you can keep: look after your digestive health with Essentially’s new addition of ‘good bacteria’ to its much-loved Green Juices – and take your health game to the next level. Gut reaction? We’re listening!

Along with juice-y pure greeny goodness such as spinach, kale and cucumber, live vegan probiotic, Ganeden BC30, will be added to the emerald cold press from 15 January 2017 – making the green recipe from Dubai’s first homegrown cold pressed juice company the most immune health-supporting in the region.

How? The probiotic evens up the balance of good and bad bacteria in our digestive tract – the complex structure that powers our entire body – through the addition of 2 billion culture forming units (CFUs) of Ganeden BC30 to each bottle. One of nature’s toughest strains of ‘healthy bacteria’, it has been proven to improve and support the immune system, as well as enhance the body’s ability to absorb key nutrients, vitamins and proteins – revitalising from the inside out.

The team at Ganeden BC30, said: “The more we learn about our intricate digestive system, the more we discover how closely tied it is to our overall health. An astounding 70 percent of your immune system is located in your digestive tract, which has been exposed to a steady stream of bacteria – some helpful, some harmful – from the day you were born.

“One key to intestinal health is maintaining a balance of these helpful and harmful bacteria. Over time, many factors including diet, aging, antibiotic use, travel, medications, illness, stress, and hormonal changes, can disrupt intestinal balance. To help level the playing field of good and bad bacteria, you should add a daily supplement or probiotic fortified foods and beverages to your diet.”

Wiebke Katsoudas, Founder of Essentially, said: “It’s no surprise that research demonstrates that gut health is the core of a strong immune system, and that probiotics may in fact boost our immunity. Our new Green Juice recipe has taken time to perfect, but we’re elated to be launching our bestselling Essential Green and Deep Green juices with probiotic qualities in the region in January. Expect the same leafy goodness, just with added ‘good bacteria’ to take care of your tums for a happy and healthy New Year!

Essential Green and Deep Green with added Ganeden BC30 (AED 45, 473ml) will be available from 15 January 2017 from the Essentially webstore at www.essentially.ae, which offers an easy-order system and door-to-door delivery.
