Issue 24 — August 2008

John Roulac Greetings-

I hope you are having a wonderful summer. I have been traveling in the beautiful Pacific Northwest in August, a great time to enjoy the seasonal fruits of cherries and blackberries. Running along the bays and mountain trails of the NW is keeping me in good shape for my annual Triathlon jaunt held this year on August 31st, in Washington state.

Many fun things to report this month here at Nutiva. And look for exciting new Nutiva products coming soon !

First, Mike Adams, aka "the Health Ranger", interviewed me about hemp foods, coconut oil and assorted health topics. You can listen in to show #47 here: http://www.naturalnews.com/Index-Podcasts.html.

I ran into actor and activist Ed Begley Jr at Lassen's Natural Foods store in Ventura, California. Ed is a true pioneer of solar energy, electric cars, and organic foods. During his lecture, Ed and I had a nice exchange about green energy and hemp buildings (more on this in the next issue). Below I discuss some of Ed's eco projects and his latest book.

Nutiva is excited about a new forth coming YouTube clip - the Nutiva Diet Makeover. It features a mother and daughter who weighed in at 252 and 185 lbs. After 12 DAYS on our healthy diet, they lost 15 and 7 lbs, respectively. The Nutiva Diet features mostly fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, seeds, healthy fats of coconut, olive and hemp oils -- plus daily HempShakes. Look for this to released at Nutiva.com in the next few weeks.

Create your reality by changing your diet for the better!

In health,

John W. Roulac
Founder and CEO
Nutiva

Customer Testimonials

Nutiva Hemp Oil

Great Taste!
August 18, 2008 from Florida ...

I think the Nutiva Hemp Oil tastes great. I use it for anything that could use a bit of oil dressing, in place of olive oil or sunflower oil. The color adds to the appeal as well. It looks almost as green as pumpkin seed oil, but tastes even better... and has omega-3. I recommend you give this a try. I really love it!

Delicious nutrition & protein for a few bucks!
August 06, 2008 from New Jersey ...

I brought Nutiva's Hempseeds to a friend's house so he could try them; he's a big fan of hemp products but had never eaten the seeds. My friend got super-excited and had his wife, brother, sister-in-law, and several kids try them... everyone loved them, especially one 8-year-old nephew who is reputed to be a picky eater. They're buttery and very soft, and seem like they would be easier to digest than other seeds.

Nutiva CEO Meets Actor and Activist Ed Begley Jr

Last month I stopped by Lassen's Natural Foods store in Ventura, CA, where Ed Begley Jr was speaking to a group. Ed and I had a nice exchange about green energy and hemp buildings (more on this in our next issue). Ed has a new book out you should check out - "Living Like Ed".
