Check out these ingredients!

Hi,

So, I just released the second Truvani Product - Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder.

And It's available until Friday at a special "launch week" pre-order price.

(Click here to save up to 30%)

I still can't believe it.

Every morning I wake up and think to myself, "Is this really happening?"

It's all so surreal.

I didn't start Food Babe as a way to start my own product line...

I never even considered it.

Then, after years of fighting against Big Food, and forcing them to change - with your help - I realized that big companies don't change fast enough...

And the only REAL way to create the change is to compete with these companies head-to-head.

So, I started Truvani, and your support has helped give me the strength to continue in this fight.

We released our first product, a Daily Turmeric Supplement, and the reviews have been stellar.

(There are 1,216 reviews. 1,133 are 5 stars)

Now we have our second product - Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder - it's available for pre-order, and I know you'll love it.

Just check out the ingredients, no fillers, no additives, no weird preservatives or hidden MSG...

INGREDIENTS:

  • Organic Chicken Bone Broth
  • Organic Carrot Powder
  • Organic Onion Powder
  • Organic Garlic Powder
  • Organic Ginger Root Powder
  • Sea Salt
  • Organic Parsley Powder

And there are so many ways to start using this Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder, here are 3:

#1. You can make a soothing Bone Broth Drink.

You can drink our Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder straight up. All you have to do is add it to hot water, and 30 seconds later... enjoy. The powder is seasoned and savory.

#2. You can make your favorite soup

You can mix the powder with water and add it to vegetable and tomato soup! Think lentils, black beans, the sky's the limit. Enhance the flavor (and nutrition) of anything!

#3. You can add it into other everyday foods

You can mix it into an egg scramble in the morning, sprinkling it into vegetable sautés, adding it to marinades for meats, baking healthy biscuits, tossing it into ground turkey, beef, or chicken to make tacos, burgers, meatballs and more.

And the good news?

When you pre-order our Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder before Friday, you should expect two things...

#1. We will ship you the Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder in July

#2. Then, also in July, we send you a digital recipe book showcasing the different ways you can start using Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder in the kitchen.

It's exciting.

Now, as you know, there is a limited supply of our Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder.

It's because we have strict ingredient sourcing standards, and we have a special launch week pre-order price where you can save up to 30% (on the 6 pack).

You can learn about it right here.

Thank you so much for your support in advance!

Xo,

Vani

Why this drink keeps me healthy...

I have been drinking bone broth for years. Now I give it to my husband and daughter. This remarkable, savory, "elixir" has jaw-dropping benefits...

12 in all. I cover each of them here.

But one of the stories that makes me smile is this...

Last year, a friend of mine sent me this text, after I posted an Instagram story of me making and freezing bone broth for my daughter.

She said, "Hey! Ok so you're prob going to roll your eyes at me but....any chance next time you make bone broth I could buy some from you? I really want to see if [my baby] likes it, too!"

Roll my eyes?

NEVER!

I love bone broth and I work it into my health regimen because I believe it helps me in several ways.

The only problem with it?

It's hard (and time consuming) to make.

And as a working mom, I can't always make it when I want to make it. It's not that I don't care. It's that making bone broth is a multi-day process and I just don't have the time.

And that's why I knew it had to be the second Truvani product.

I wanted to make it easy. Especially for working moms who are always on the go. And that's why we turned it into an Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder.

You can learn about this new product and pre-order right here (and save up to 30%)

It is a savory bone broth that you can mix with hot water and drink, and it has the same benefits of bone broth. You can also put it in your soup, eggs, or mashed potatoes. It's packed with 10 grams of protein, great nutrition, and we test every ingredient to ensure it lives up to The Truvani Standard.

Now, here's the deal...

We are sending you this email because our Organic Chicken Bone Broth Powder is available on pre-sale. And if you order it today, you can save up to 30% off.

See the details here.

It's only available until Friday. And then it goes away.

We ship the product in July. And you may be wondering, "Why are you pre-selling it?"

It's simple. Since we have such strict ingredient sourcing standards, there's a limited supply of the product. And I wanted to give people in the Food Babe Army "first dibs" on ordering our product since I expect to sell out when we launch it to the public.

Over the years I've told you that voting with your dollars is one of the most important things you can do to change the food system.

Now, I am finally able to create the healthy products that I always wanted to see in stores, not just for myself - but for you too. Your support is making this possible.

Thank you!

The next Truvani product is available! Can you guess what it is?

So, I'm in Los Angeles on a business trip, and I'm about to sit down with my daughter for a snack. I give her a sippy cup filled with this dark colored liquid…

When my colleague asked what it was, I told him and he was shocked.

"I DRINK THAT TOO!"

This got me thinking…

"What if we make this the NEXT Truvani product?"

And that's exactly what we did.

Can you guess what it is?

Watch the new video to see what it is and hear the full story.

P.S. It's all still so surreal to me. I never set out to create my own product line, but after years of fighting against Big Food and forcing big companies to change,  I knew I had to take matters into my own hands. The only real way to make lasting change in our food system is to fight them head-to-head as a competitor. We launched our first product earlier this year. There are 1210 verified buyer reviews. 1128 of these reviews are 5 stars. Now our second product is available.

See what it is!

I started my new company Truvani to create the products I wish I could find in stores. There are too many products with unnecessary additives, and many of them with ingredients that could be harmful to your health. I realized that the best way to improve the food system was to get on the inside.

The FDA didn’t want you to read this!

How would you feel if you found out the FDA knew there's Roundup weedkiller in our food, but was doing NOTHING about it?

As I sit here this morning, I feel livid.

Given that glyphosate (the active ingredient in Monsanto's Roundup) is currently the subject of massive litigation in regards to hundreds of cases of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and that the World Health Organization's cancer agency has declared glyphosate a probable carcinogen… we deserve to know if this is in our food.

Yet the very people who have been put in charge of ensuring food safety in this country are turning a blind eye and hiding the truth from the public.

In an appalling FDA internal email obtained by U.S. Right To Know, it has become apparent that the FDA is fully aware of how rampant Roundup is in our food. In the email from last year, FDA chemist Richard Thompson admits that the crackers and granola cereal he tested from his house had a "fair amount" of the weed killer in them.

How much is a "fair amount"? Are you comfortable eating a "fair amount" of weed killer for breakfast? I'm know I'm not.

This is not an isolated incident. This follows previous FDA testing which found glyphosate in all U.S. honey samples tested. The researcher commented it was "difficult to find" honey that wasn't tainted. Even worse, some samples had double the limit allowed in Europe (who has stricter regulations).

Other tests by private groups have found glyphosate in cereal, meat, drinking water, breast milk, infant formula, chips, cookies, air samples… the list goes on.

Where is the press release from the FDA? Why are they being silent?

It's inexcusable that this problem has gotten so out of hand and that Monsanto is continuing to get away with poisoning us and our planet. We are literally eating this controversial weedkiller every day… This is maddening.  

How to protect yourself and your family…

While some organic foods are tainted, the best option is to buy certified organic foods because glyphosate is prohibited on organic crops. Take it one step further and look for products with the Glyphosate Residue Free seal or Glyphosate in Transition (where companies have committed to keep Glyphosate levels as low as possible).

I know you want this controversial chemical out of our food as much as I do. There are two big ways you can take action:

  1. Vote with your dollars. When you choose to buy certified organic and Glyphosate Residue Free foods, you are casting a vote for which products should be in stores. This is the fastest way to change the food system.  
  2. Spread the word to your friends and family. The more people who know about the risky chemicals in our food, the easier it will be for us to band together and create change. Forward this email to everyone you know and ask them to subscribe here.

Despite the FDA failing us at every turn, we we are winning the battle...

Last month, a California court affirmed that glyphosate can be listed as a known carcinogen under Prop 65. Since California has strict laws on companies selling products that may expose consumers to carcinogens, they will now require that all glyphosate products carry a warning label in the state. This is a huge win for public health and will help raise awareness about the dangers of this risky chemical.

Please share this email and stay tuned…

Xo,

Vani

P.S. I have a BIG announcement coming next week, can't wait to share what's next for my new company Truvani

How I lost the baby weight

Today, I'm sharing a personal look into my body post-baby.

Again, this is personal and I'm nervous sharing such intimate details (and pictures), but the real reason I am doing this is to inspire and encourage mamas to focus on eating nutrient-dense foods to feel their best!

The food babe lifestyle has never been about the number on the scale.

Read the new post here.

Becoming a mom has been the best thing I have ever done, if you have your own stories to share in the comments, I would love to hear them!

Xo,

Vani 

P.S. I also put together a FREE meal plan that outlines what I ate during the months after giving birth. All the details are in the post.

Very cool! The first fast food company to do this.

I've got some very cool news to share with you today, but first, let me tell you about this conversation I had with Little Caesars customer service…

Several years ago I did a big pizza restaurant investigation and Little Caesars was one of the brands who refused to tell me what was in their food. Last week I started to wonder if that was still the case, and decided to check. I went to their website and couldn't find the ingredients there. So I picked up the phone and called their customer service and asked if they had the ingredients posted online. The representative told me that the ingredients for their pizzas are not published online and that she could not give them to me. She further said that they couldn't disclose a full ingredient list unless I had a DOCTOR call them. Whoa… isn't that ridiculous?

This is what is wrong with so many big restaurant chains. They refuse to tell you what is in their food if you ask, let alone publish the ingredient list online. The FDA doesn't require restaurants to disclose this information, so they are given a free pass to hide their ingredients from consumers.

Restaurants should not be hiding their ingredients from the public. Making the ingredients available via a PDF file on a public website is super EASY and really should be mandatory in the restaurant industry. And this is why I am pumped about what a new growing fast food chain is doing. 

The Organic Coup has started putting their ingredients directly on packaging! This is an industry first and I can't wait for other fast food chains to follow suit. Read all about it here.

Over the last few years, we've convinced some multi-billion dollar corporations, like Chipotle, Starbucks, and Anheuser-Busch, to finally publish their ingredients for the first time in history. And, we can do it again! Take ACTION with me here.

Everyone deserves to know exactly what he or she are eating and our job will not be done until we all have this information. Thank you for being warriors of change along with me!

Vani
