Frequently Asked Questions Relating To Our Products

If you can not find the information you're looking for in this section - or if you need additional information, please email us at:  [email protected]


 

Are the food ingredients organic?

The Wholefood Farmacy is certified as a producer of organic foods by Oregon Tilth.  At this time, we offer three foods which are certified organic – those foods are Phi Plus, Cranberry Phi and Coco Cherry Phi.  All of our other foods are handcrafted using all natural, GMO free whole food ingredients without the use of any artificial flavorings, artificial colorings, artificial sweeteners, nor do we add any type of chemical preservatives to our foods.    As we move into 2008 we will begin to offer some of our other foods with organic certification based upon popularity and feasibility.  We will update this section of the website as more information becomes available.

 

Where are the nutrition facts located?

All of the nutrition facts are posted on the website, here’s how to find them:

  1. Click on the OUR PRODUCTS button (to the left).
  2. Within the product description area, for each product, you’ll see the words “Nutrition Facts” (underlined and in red). Click on this link within any of the product description areas and the nutrition facts for that product will display.

Where can I find serving ideas?

Most of our products have several serving ideas listed on the back label. We also send a list of serving ideas with each Wholefood Farmacy order. You can also find a link to serving ideas for each product in the OUR PRODUCTS section of the website.

 

Are all of the products raw?

The ingredients in our products are raw with the exception of our roasted corn products or products which contain the roasted corns. The products which are not raw are:

  • Cornaborealis
  • Cornucopia
  • Corn of Plenty
  • Cranberry Crunch
  • Veggielicous Spice

Some products contain cashews which are removed from the shell using a steam process. The cashew nuts can reach temperatures of up to 140 F during this process. They do not necessarily reach that temperature, however, it is possible.

How are the foods dried?

Our food products are dried in a process of lyophylization, in sublimated water vapor. This process involves drying in a low temperature AND low pressure environment. With this process, enzymes, nutrition, shape, and flavor are retained.

Because lyophylization is the most complex and expensive form of drying, its use is usually restricted to delicate, heat-sensitive materials of high value. Lyophylization is a process which extracts the water from foods and other products so that the foods or products remain stable and are easier to store at room temperature (ambient air temperature).

Lyophylization is carried out using a simple principle of physics called sublimation. Sublimation is the transition of a substance from the solid to the vapor state, without first passing through an intermediate liquid phase.

Do the foods need to be refrigerated?

The only product that we recommend be refrigerated is the JOULE, especially after opening. All of our other food products have been preserved through the natural preservation process of drying.

Refrigerating can cause condensation adding moisture content to the foods. The foods should be kept as dry as possible. The optimal method of storage is keeping the foods in a cool, dry, and dark location.

What is the shelf life of the foods?

The shelf life of our food products is approximately 30 to 60 days if stored in a cool, dry, and dark location. We recommend ordering only what you can reasonably expect to consume within 30 days. In the summer months, if taking the foods with you in the car, we recommend storing them in a small cooler and out of direct sun light if possible - the cooler will keep the heat out - there is no need to put ice in the cooler, just a clean dry cooler will protect the foods from excessive heat. Keeping the cooler in the trunk or out of direct sun light also helps. Similarly, in the winter months, the cooler will protect the foods from freezing.

If you are planning on keeping the foods on hand for extended periods of time it would be a good idea to store them in some sort of air tight container or even some larger zip loc bags for extra protection. The only product that we recommend be refrigerated is the JOULE, especially after opening.

Can diabetics eat the foods?

In our society diabetes is caused by primarily by ingesting high levels of un-natural processed sugars such as white table sugar or high-fructose corn syrup. These types of sugars (simple carbohydrates) are much smaller, on the molecular level, and therefore cross the blood-brain barrier extremely fast. The brain interprets this enormous rush of sugar as trauma and instantly signals the pancreas to over-produce insulin to lower the blood sugar levels. The body was not designed to ingest these un-natural types of sugars and attempts to combat them by producing insulin. This constant stimulation of the pancreas, over time, simply causes it to wear out – the medical community calls this condition type 2 diabetes. In one sense, un-natural sugars wear out the pancreas just like cigarettes wear out the lungs.

Natural sugars, like the sugars found in fruits, are known as complex carbohydrates. The body was designed to ingest them. They are much larger molecules and cross the blood brain barrier very slowly. They cause the brain to signal the pancreas to produce glucagons which create a feeling of energy and well being. All of our products contain only natural, raw, complex, large molecule sugars. We have received a lot of feedback from diabetics who have eaten these foods. Typically, they report that their sugar levels spiked during the first three, or so, days and that when they reached days four or five, that their sugar levels had stabilized. In some cases their doctors stopped their medications. As always, we strongly recommend that anyone with specific medical concerns consult their doctor prior to any changes in diet, medication, or lifestyle.

What is the Tri-Decathlon & how does it work?

The Tri-Decathlon is a 13 day supply of whole foods. There are 7 bags of Phi Plus, 3 bags of Fruitalicious, 3 bags of Veggielicious, along with Stardust 2 Hydra8. The concept is to "re-start" your body nutritionally - back to the basics of whole foods and water. Start each day with a big glass of water and begin to eat the food of your choice - most people prefer the Phi Plus or Fruitalicious in the morning. A meal should not be rushed - take a little time, sit down, eat the foods, chewing them slowly and thoroughly, and continue to eat and drink water until you are completely full and satisfied. From there, anytime throughout the day you feel hungry, repeat that same process - in fact, we recommend eating at least every 90 minutes throughout the day. It is important to eat slowly and to pay attention to your body - when your stomach tells you that it's satisfied - stop eating.

After only two or three days you will begin to notice exciting changes as the toxins are flushed out of your body and all of this pure whole food nutrition takes effect. For those needing to lose weight, many report weight loss averaging one pound per day beginning around day 3 or day 4. After day 4 your tastes will begin to change. You will begin to crave fresh raw whole foods (fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, and berries). Salads, lightly steamed vegetables, berries, etc., can also be eaten during the 13 days as a special treat. This change in desired foods may help develop a pathway to a desirable lifestyle change thus creating a permanent solution to weight control and many other benefits.

Add the Stardust 2 Hydra8 to your water (one teaspoon per gallon) and drink at least 8 large glasses per day. The Stardust 2 Hydra8 gives the water a salty taste so feel free to vary the amount of Stardust or to add fresh squeezed orange, lemon, or lime juice for flavor. The Stardust 2 Hydra8 will allow your body to become properly hydrated. Most people believe that drinking plenty of liquids is the same as drinking plenty of water but nothing could be farther from the truth. When you drink water, it is recognized and absorbed from the stomach within 45 seconds. From there it proceeds on a path through your brain, vital organs, and finally into your blood stream. Properly hydrated blood is thinner, flows easier, and lowers blood pressure naturally. When you drink any other liquid (besides water) your stomach processes it as food, pulling water from your blood stream, making the blood thicker and increasing blood pressure.

The Distributor wholesale price is $169.95 which breaks down to $13 per day. The average person spends more than that on food each day already - a cup of coffee and pastry in the morning and a modest lunch can easily cost $13 (not counting dinner) so the Tri-Decathlon also has the unique characteristic of saving you money in addition to all of the other benefits.

The Tri-Decathlon is an "inner 13K" run - down the full length of the Alimentary Canal every day for 13 days. Thrill as you keep improving your own "Transit Time." Delight in your new found constitutional fitness, the ease of your own peristaltic muscular action, enjoy your own inner Olympic strength as you rediscover the bliss of jostling, wobbling, waggling, wiggling and loping with ease along the full length of the intestinal tract, approaching the home stretch and then crossing the finish line feeling renewed, refreshed, and revitalized.

After 13 days many people report:

  • Being Mentally Sharper!
  • Being more Focused, Positive and Energetic!
  • Having reduced Reflux - Naturally!
  • Being closer to their Optimal Weight!
  • Having a greater sense of Inner Well Being!
  • Rediscovering their Natural Hunger for Fresh Whole Foods!
  • Enjoying that Youthful Glow again!
  • Smiling More!
  • Having a Love for Phi Plus and Water in your life!

 

What is the Liquithon & how does it work?

The Liquithon is a 13 day supply of our Wholefood Farinas. It includes a one pound bag of AmpliPhi, BeautiPhi, ClariPhi, DetoxiPhi, ElectriPhi, FructiPhi, And GloriPhi. The concept of the Liquithon is to “re-start” your body's nutritional system and return it to “original manufacturers specifications”. It is a back to the basics approach using whole foods and water.

You’ll enjoy 7 liquid meals each day spaced only two hours apart.  For example, if you start your day at 7am, you’ll have meal at 7am, another at 9am, another at 11am, and so on, ending with your last meal at 7pm.  The Farinas are very versatile whole foods – feel free to blend them with fresh fruits (veggies with AmpliPhi) to create delicious, nutritious, liquid whole food meals.

How does Stardust 2 Hydr8 work?

The human body is an “electrical machine”. All vital bodily functions happen as a result of electrical signals sent from the brain. In order for your body to operate at peak performance, these electrical signals must be conducted from the brain to various parts of your body - this is where electrolytes come in. Electrolytes are substances that will conduct electricity when mixed with water – the most common electrolyte in the human body is salt.

The body is 70% water, about two-thirds of the water resides inside the cells, intracellular fluid and about one-third resides outside of the cell, extracellular fluid. The body works constantly to make sure that the intracellular fluid and extracellular fluid have the same amount of electrolyte concentration – this is a very important component of homeostasis or your body’s inner balance.

The mechanisms that monitor and adjust the balance of electrolytes respond only to changes in extracellular fluid such as blood. When someone is ill or injured and taken to the hospital, one of the first and most common procedures is to hang an I.V. which simply means injecting salt water directly into the blood stream. Doing so helps the body to operate better because electrical signals from the brain to the body can be better conducted.

In addition, when salt is added to the extracellular fluid it causes water to move between the intracellular and extracellular areas allowing the body to become properly hydrated. This is why athletes, for example, take salt pills or drink “sports drinks” during work-outs. Sports drinks are simply salt water mixed with artificial colorings, artificial flavorings, artificial sweeteners and chemical preservatives. 

Stardust 2 Hydr8 offers you all of the benefits of a saline or electrolyte solution without any needles or artificial additives. It is made from pure salt and bicarbonate which are the main components of extracellular fluid. Stardust 2 Hydra8 is mixed one tea spoon to a gallon of water creating a mildly saline solution - also referred to as an "electrolyte solution".

Stardust 2 Hydr8 is a great way to help your body to operate at peak performance and to maintain proper hydration. Mix one level teaspoon of Stardust 2 Hydr8 with a gallon of water and drink one or two glasses per day.

How are the foods prepared?

We start with the finest whole foods available which we obtain from vendors around the world who are able to supply whole food ingredients to our exacting specifications.  At the point of harvest, each ingredient is carefully cleaned using high pressure water and gentle friction (scrubbing) to remove dirt and dust from the field.  From there, the food ingredients are quarantined for 48 hours while the appropriate bacteriological culture tests are made.  Once the ingredients pass that test, they are sent to our manufacturing facility in Rogersville, TN.  Each whole food ingredient starts its Wholefood Farmacy journey by going through our receiving department where each ingredient is carefully inspected for cleanliness and freshness.  From there, the foods make their way to our production dept. where they are handcrafted into the various foods that we offer, they are then hand packaged and taken to our shipping dept. to fill your orders. 

 

Our manufacturing facility is a fully licensed, approved, and certified USDA food manufacturing facility.  Our manufacturing process meets or exceeds all safety requirements necessary for a UDSA licensed manufacturing facility.  The USDA conducts regular inspections of our facility to ensure compliance on a regular and ongoing basis.
