Young Living Essential Oils creates food and dietary supplements of the highest quality that are enriched and enhanced with therapeutic-grade essential oils such as lavender, orange and lemon. One of the greatest threats to health in our fast-paced society is the highly processed, chemical-, fat-, and sugar-laden foods eaten on a daily basis. A great need of the modern world is convenience foods rich in nutrition. Young Living Essential Oils creates food products similar to those eaten by people who live to an old age, while remaining healthy, alert, and self-sufficient. All food products contain nutrient-dense, natural, whole ingredients and are free of sugars and artificial sweeteners. Gary Young, founder of Young Living Essential Oils, discovered in clinical practice while doing bacteriology studies with the blood that there was a substantial amount of undigested protein in the blood serum that could not penetrate the cell membrane because of low oxygen levels. When he enhanced foods and supplements with essential oils, he did not detect any undigested food in the blood. He also discovered that supplements enhanced with essential oils increase the absorption of food nutrients and aid in the detoxification of the body.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q ~ Can Balance Complete cause minor gas and bloating?
A ~ Because most people consume so little fiber on average, increasing fiber substantially may increase gas and bloating in some people, although the opposite is often the case. An improved enzyme pack in Balance Complete aids digestiblity and minimizes bloating. However, if this occurs, simply reduce the amount of Balance Complete you take at one time and gradually increase it over time. Also consider supplementing with Young Living's Digest + Cleanse or Essentialzyme™.
Q ~ What if I have lactose and or gluten sensitivities?
A ~ Balance Complete does contain some milk products so those with lactose sensitivities should proceed with caution.
However, Balance Complete was engineered with a complementary enzyme pack that should alleviate some concerns.

Balance Complete™
Power Meal™
Pure Protein Complete™

The standard American diet (SAD) is out of control. We eat largely overprocessed foods that provide very little nutrition and tons of calories. At the same time, our demand for essential nutrients has never been greater; we work more, take a lot of medications, and eat too much junk food and refined sugar. As a people we are sick, fat, and tired, and the rest of the world is not far behind. All current research points to the same conclusion: Nutrient deficiency lies at the root of all our major chronic and degenerative health problems. To catch up and keep up with today's extraordinary demands, we must flood our systems with essential nutrients. Young Living developed the Core Essentials Complete nutritional program to supply a full spectrum of essential nutrients supercharged with the world's finest revitalizing essential oils. The program includes NingXia Red®, Longevity™, Life 5™, True Source™, Omega Blue™, and Balance Complete.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q~ If Power Meal is a vegetarian formula, is it also considered vegan friendly?
A~ Vegan diet, in addition to being vegetarian, excludes any animal products and byproducts such as dairy, eggs and honey. We believe that Power Meal meets the criteria to be "vegan friendly."
Q~ Why do I need Power Meal's brown-rice protein?
A~ Proteins are made up of amino acids. Unlike fats or carbohydrates, the body doesn’t store amino acids. The body needs a daily supply of amino acids to make new protein, that's why Power Meal's 20 grams of complete protein per serving, contains all of the amino acids necessary to build new proteins in your body.

A high-protein lifestyle continues to be very popular with body-builders and dieters. Among proteins, whey has the highest protein efficiency ratio, meaning it is perfect for building tissue and activating immune-boosting glutathione production. Many companies have created whey protein products to take advantage of this trend, but they are far from all alike. Many top-selling brands offer poor-quality proteins and sell based on taste alone. They are often enhanced with artificial sweeteners and inexpensive low-nutrient fats like canola and soybean oil. Furthermore, they contain proteins damaged during the filtering process by high heat or harsh chemical conditions. Also, many whey protein concentrates and isolate products are less effective because they use only one whey form and metabolize too quickly. This leaves muscles and tissue exposed without nutrients for rebuilding and leads to muscle break down.

Pure Protein Complete delivers whey protein's maximum benefits and a delicious taste and texture without the junk. It is an ultra-clean protein sourced from New Zealand and is certified grass-fed and hormone-, antibiotic-, and chemical-free. Plus, it is prepared with a gentle filtering process that does not denature amino-acids and maintains ultra-bioactivity. Pure Protein Complete also combines different whey protein forms like whey protein concentrate, milk protein concentrate, whey protein isolate, sweet whey, and nonfat dry milk. These forms metabolize at different rates delivering vital aminos over time, reducing muscle breakdown and increasing protein synthesis; this makes Pure Protein Complete an excellent supplement to any diet plan as sustained release proteins keep blood sugar levels stable, which reduces food cravings.*

In summary, Pure Protein Completes exclusive formulation guarantees:

  • A full range of ultra-bioactive, non-denatured amino acids.
  • The highest protein efficiency ratio to build more muscle.*
  • Optimal protein absorption with complementary vitamins, minerals, and enzymes.
  • Sustained protein metabolism and reduced muscle breakdown.*
  • Low glycemic index with no artificial sweeteners (aspartame, sucralose, etc.) or super sweeteners (e.g., Ace-K, high fructose corn syrup).
