Our shots are condensed, concentrated cold-pressed juices packed into a 2oz bottle. While small, our shots provide intense flavors and substantial health benefits. These shots afford benefits as a function of the ingredients in each bottle.

Our Aloe Shot is derived from the aloe vera plant, a succulent with tall fleshy leaves where the juice is found. It’s loaded with vitamins, enzymes, minerals, amino acids, and salicylic acids.

- Enzymes present help break down fats and sugars to smooth the process of digestion
- Interaction with growth factor receptors and active components of aloe vera significantly increases collagen synthesis, aiding the bodies healing process
- This accelerates wound contraction and increased the breaking strength of resulting scar tissue

The Flu Shot is comprised of ginger, lemon, and cayenne pepper. Thanks to these ingredients, it packs a spicy (and nutritious) punch. Ginger has been used to treat an assortment of medical conditions for centuries, and recent scientific evidence has confirmed its effectiveness.
- Ginger possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-nausea, and anticancer properties
- Ginger root contains an extremely high level of total antioxidants (surpassed only by pomegranate and various berries)
- An anti-inflammatory substance known as gingerol is present in ginger
- Studies indicate ginger is a more effective treatment for nausea than dimenhydrinate (Dramamine)
- Various mechanisms have been proposed to explain the anticancer activities of ginger
- Its antioxidant activity
- The ability to induce apoptosis and decrease proliferation
- Suppressing activator protein 1 and NF-κB/COX-2 signaling pathways
- Cayenne peppers are rich in capsaicin
- This active compound promotes weight loss, increases satiety, boosts metabolism, fights inflammation, relieves pain, and bolsters heart health
- Lemons serve as an excellent source of vitamin C and improve immune function

The Hot Shot comprises turmeric, ginger, Camu Camu, oil of oregano, echinacea, black pepper, honey, apple, and lemon. These ingredients complement one another well, providing a tasty (and as the name would imply, hot) flavor and bringing out the most in each of their health benefits.
- Turmeric contains curcumin, a nutrient that serves as a powerful anti-oxidant
- Curcumin gained popularity due to evidence that indicates it may aid in fighting cancer cells and Alzheimer’s disease
- The bioavailability of curcumin is low, making it difficult for the body to absorb
- We enhance the absorption in the GI tract by combining turmeric with other ingredients like ginger and black pepper
- Turmeric is additionally rich in iron and manganese
- Black pepper contributes in more than just aiding curcumin absorption
- It itself is plentiful in antioxidants, and provides anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, gastro-protective, and antidepressant activities
- Oregano oil possesses antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-fungal properties
- Compounds present are also antioxidants and anti-inflammatory
- Echinacea helps stimulate the immune system
- This stimulation has an antiviral effect, helping the immune system effectively fight infection

The Vitamin C shot combines Camu Camu, orange, pineapple, lemon, lime, and strawberry, creating a sweet flavor and powerful boost of nutrients. These ingredients are rich in vitamin C, an antioxidant responsible for protecting the body from free radicals.
- Free radicals: atoms that have an unpaired electron; this causes them to search for another electron to stabilize themselves
- Free radicals come about from normal metabolic processes, but external factors like air pollutants, cigarette smoking, and industrial chemicals can contribute as well
- This process can contribute to various health problems, including cardiovascular and antioxidant disease, cataract, and cancer
- These free radicals are counteracted by vitamin C
- That’s not all vitamin C can do
- It’s essential for collagen production
- Improves the absorption of iron from plant-based sources
- Helps the immune system work efficiently to prevent disease
- Camu Camu are small, sour berries abundant in vitamin C and antioxidant compounds
- Contains polyphenols (ellagic acid, ellagitannins, proanthocyanidins) that fight off free radicals; in addition to providing anti-inflammatory benefits
- Quercetin is a plant pigment present in Camu Camu, which has been linked to improved cognitive function
