Product/Service Details

Our Intense Energy & Immune Support contain a healthy dose of 100mg of Active Trans-Resveratrol along with other antioxidants EGCG, vitamins A, C and E. Age Defense Water contains Zero sugar and is naturally sweetened with a Monk Fruit and Stevia Blend. We chose Monk Fruit because the fruit is also known as the “longevity fruit” and has been used as medicine in China for over 800 years. Recent research also found that the sweetness of the monk fruit comes from a compound called mogroside which also contains antioxidant properties. Resveratrol is currently being studied by major universities and the NIH due to its cardio protective qualities. It is also being studied for its role in insulin resistance in pre-diabetics as well as it protective qualities on the brain during the event of a stroke. Age Defense Water comes in 4 different Flavors: Tropical Citrus Punch, Strawberry Flower Banana, Orange Pineapple Blossom and Lily Berry Punch. All are only 5 calories per serving.

Traction & Accomplishments

We won a Silver Medal for our packaging in Beverage World Magazine's packaging competition. We tied with Evian's new packaging and won over thousands of entries from around the world. We started Beta Testing in two local Sprouts along with other accounts such as small convenience stores, health clubs and small markets about two years ago and the response has been extremely positive. People loved the taste and the function of our waters and we outsold many other beverages. In our local area, we have developed a loyal following because people love our Sugar Free energy waters that taste great and provides energy without the jitters. We launched into all Sprouts Markets locations in May 2014. We launched at all 13 Bristol Farms Locations in September 2014. To date, we have approximately sold about 80,000 units.
