Your body is your temple, so keep it green! Green Temple is a Health + Wellness lifestyle brand, and the foundation for this is Green Temple Cleanse. GTC is an organic, raw, GMO free green juice, and it's like no other green juice on the market. Low in sugar, heavy on greens, and super tasty! Plus it contains significant cleansing ingredients such as spirulina which was used to treat children for radiation post Chernobyl.Freshly made each morning, and delivered to offices in Portland Oregon by 10am. Green Temple currently sells to Wieden+Kennedy, Icebreaker and Gerding Edlen. Gerding Edlen has taken the incredibly innovative step in supporting employee Health + Wellness by offering Green Temple Cleanse on a daily basis to their team at a significantly reduced rate. GE does this because they understand that Health + Wellness begins with what we put into our bodies. And when we feed our bodies properly, we not only feel better, we DO better at everything in our lives, including our work lives = higher productivity. Green Temple Cleanse was created for my own personal use over the last 3 years. GT does not believe in "binge cleansing", and instead adheres to a daily cleansing philosophy simply because we absorb toxins on a daily basis.Green Temple Cleanse supports Health + Wellness, from the inside out.

After sampling a kombucha culture carefully handed down for generations, he took home a “starter” culture from that original batch back to America. Steve began brewing kombucha in his own kitchen and, after becoming convinced that more people should be able to experience its wellness effect, he launched Portland, Oregon-based Kombucha Wonder Drink in 2001. Kombucha Wonder Drink beverages include premium organic green, oolong, jasmine and herbal teas packed with antioxidants, while the kombucha fermentation process creates beneficial organic acids that have been known to aid digestion and help build the immune system. Kombucha Wonder Drink is a refreshing, USDA-certified organic sparkling fermented tea. Effervescent, slightly sweet and subtly tart with low amounts of sugar and caffeine, Kombucha Wonder Drink is pasteurized and classified by law as a non-alcoholic beverage.http://www.wonderdrink.com/
