Ingredients:
Stabilized Rice Polishings
The Stabilized Rice Polishings contain natural occurring selenium, CoQ10, alphalipoic acid, flavonoids, glutathinone peroxidase, 28 unnamed tocotrienols and various tocepherols just to name a few, all forming a wealth of anti-oxidants for the body to draw from when exposed vital and bacterial infections. This ingredient only could be considered a perfect food.
Antioxidants
There are over 100 known antioxidants in Rice Bran Solubles. Antioxidants are vitamins, minerals, or enzymes that help protect the body from the formation of free radicals and the formation of degenerative diseases. Free radical damage is thought by scientists to be the basis for the aging process. The Rice Bran Solubles contain natural occurring selenium, CoQ10, alphalipoic acid, flavonoids, glutathinone peroxidase, 28 unnamed tocotrienols and various tocopherols just to name a few, all forming a wealth of anti-oxidants for the body to draw from when exposed to viral and bacterial infections.
The Tocotrienols and Tocopherols from the Vitamin E complex present in Rice Bran Solubles are perhaps the most important element found, encompassing the eight essential fat-soluble nutrients. They have been identified as responsible for lowering cholesterol in the body, inhibiting the growth of tumor cells, and having anti-aging and anti-inflammatory qualities. Rice Bran Solubles consist of perfect chains of Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), major and trace minerals, amino acids, and anti-oxidants in perfect ratio in a plant source. Since every membrane in the body requires these EFAs to function (including the brain which is 85% fat or cholesterol) Rice Bran Solubles can be an effective way to get these nutrients in a highly absorbable form.
Vitamins
Vitamins help us regulate our metabolism, assist the body in the formation of tissue and bones, and help convert fat and carbohydrates into energy. The body cannot assimilate vitamins without ingesting food. The following is a brief list of the Vitamins found in Rice Bran Solubles:
Vitamin A (Beta Carotene), Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine), Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Folic Acid, Biotin, Choline, and Inositol.
Minerals
The body cannot manufacture a single mineral. And yet, minerals are constituents of bones, muscle, blood, nerve cells, teeth and soft tissue. Minerals allow the body to assimilate vitamins. The following minerals are found in Rice Bran Solubles:
Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Iron, Zinc, Manganese, Copper, Iodine, along with many other trace minerals.

Lecithin
Benefits:
- Helps protect against cardiovascular disease

- Helps prevent some diseases of the nervous system, such as Alzheimer's disease and tardive dyskinesia (involuntary, abnormal facial movements including grimacing, sticking out tongue and sucking movements)
- Helps liver damage caused by alcoholism
- Lowers cholesterol level
Mineral Whey
The most plentiful mineral ingredients in Mineral Whey are the electrolytes, while it also contains important trace minerals. Mineral Whey has an alkaline reaction, and the mineral combinations found in this particular whey product are absorbed and assimilated by the body with ease.
The Greens
Organic Kamut (Egyptian Wheat Grass) and Organic Barley Grass Juice PowdersOf all the "greens", the cleanest, most concentrated source of greens is the grass juice powders. For Essential Light, we use only the purest, Organic Kamut and Organic Barley Grass Juice Powders.
Stevia
Stevia is a sweet tasting herb that provides healing benefits to the pancreas.
Essential Light should be taken at least once a day, but feel free to have it as often as you'd like. You can also mix Essential Light with a milk replacement drink (such as Rice Dream, Almond Milk, etc) and add 1 Tbs. of Flax Seed Oil (to provide yourself with the necessary essential fatty acids). The best is to make a smoothie with fruit (best if frozen) and plain yogurt. Organic Coconut Oil is a great tasting highly beneficial addition as well.
Not only could a person live on this beverage alone, they could absolutely thrive. Astonishingly, in the face of all this serious nutrition, it also tastes great!
