HEALTH BENEFITS OF SPARKA

Sparka contains no sugar, no sugar alcohols, and zero calories. No ingredient tricks are used. Sparka provides pure, nutritious hydration.

Sparka is pure. NO artificial sweeteners, color or flavors, NO added caffeine, and NO phosphoric acid. The absence of these negatives equals a strong positive in today's world.

Sparka supplies essential nutrients. Each bottle of Sparka is a natural nutritional dietary supplement, supplying Vitamin C, Calcium, and the beneficial herb, Stevia. Sparka is so nutritious and healthful, we are required to identify it as a dietary supplement.*

Vitamin C: Each 20 ounce bottle of Sparka contains 100% of the RDA of Vitamin C. Many health authorities believe that most people benefit from Vitamin C at doses that are many times the RDA; hence drinking multiple bottles of Sparka per day is considered very healthful.

The benefits of Vitamin C are many and well known, including: immune system support, support for proper healing and bone formation; support for proper blood and collagen formation; functions in the metabolisms of folic acid, some amino acids, and hormones; functions as a powerful antioxidant; reported possible protection against certain cancers; reported usefulness in weight control; et al.

It is interesting to note that Vitamin C is considered a "stress vitamin" because your body uses up its supply more quickly when stressed (physically or emotionally). So, if you have a stressful job or home situation, it's a good idea to keep those bottles of Sparka close at hand!

Calcium: Each 20 ounce bottle of Sparka contains 10% of the RDA of Calcium. Besides helping to build strong bones and teeth, calcium also helps with proper blood clotting, nerve transmission, and in maintaining the body's natural pH balance. It is important for everyone to ingest sufficient calcium, even more so for children, teens, and older women.

It is a little known fact that calcium absorption in the body is a very inefficient process. Only 20-30% of the calcium that you ingest at one time is actually absorbed and metabolized, especially when the amount ingested is large. So, if you are taking a 1,000 mg tablet of calcium each day thinking that your needs are met, you may be mistaken. It is better to get smaller amounts of calcium at various times throughout your day, than to take a large amount all at once (because of the poor absorption of calcium when large quantities are taken at once). What better way, then, to get your calcium than by drinking a refreshing bottle of Sparka two, three, even four or five times per day or more!

There has also been exciting research recently reported on the benefits of calcium supplementation for people who are trying to lose weight. A study recently published in Obesity Research found that subjects who followed a balanced, modestly calorie-reduced diet that included calcium rich foods lost 70% more body weight, and 64% more body fat than those who did not consume as much calcium. Another study involving subjects at a healthy weight reported that the ingestion of additional daily calcium caused the body to use more fat for fuel, as compared with subjects whose calcium intakes were lower. Calcium, then, appears to be quite important to the weight loss/weight maintenance process.

Stevia: is a plant originating from South and Central America that has been used for centuries by the indigenous populations of these areas. Stevia has many reported health benefits, including:
- Stevia leaves contain numerous natural nutrients that function in the regulation of blood sugar, including: chromium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, manganese, selenium and niacin.
- Stevia has been shown to help facilitate the release of insulin and normalize the response to glucose, in people who suffer with Type 2 diabetes.
- Stevia has been found effective in the normalization of high blood pressure.
- Stevia has been used as a general tonic to increase energy levels and mental acuity.
- Stevia has been shown in clinical trials to help control sugar cravings.
- Stevia has been used to fight obesity, generally through a normalizing effect on blood sugar levels.
- Stevia has been used as a digestive aid, and to normalize excess stomach acidity.
- Stevia has been reported useful in helping normalize cases of hypoglycemia.
- Stevia has been reported to inhibit growth of harmful mouth bacteria.
- Stevia is considered one of the world's safest natural herbs. Stevia has been used extensively in Japan, Brazil, China and many other countries for decades (as a valuable herb and as a sweetener). There have been no significant reports of toxicity or other side effects.
