True Citrus announced the launch of True Lemon Wellness, a new line of functional, powdered drink mixes. Crafted with purposeful, scientifically chosen, Non-GMO ingredients, the new collection is designed to support proactive health routines and enhance daily vitality by offering targeted benefits for appetite control, immune system support and sustained energy.

True Lemon Wellness is a refreshing response to common consumer frustrations within the functional beverage space. Many existing options fall short on transparency, taste or a holistic approach, and consumers crave solutions that are simple and effective. Each of the three unique formulations contain 0 sugar, no artificial sweeteners and are vegan and gluten-free, helping consumers transform their water into wellness from sunrise to sunset.

True Lemon Curb your cravings responds to a pressing need for appetite control solutions that are science-informed and trustworthy, as the weight management market is often rife with skepticism. True Lemon Curb helps support those on weight loss or weight maintenance journeys, including GLP-1 protocols or post-protocol, those embracing mindful eating lifestyles like intermittent fasting, Mediterranean or Keto or those looking for help with hunger without high stimulants, unproven herbs or medication. Available in three delicious flavors: Strawberry Fusion, Blueberry Fusion, Peach Fusion. ($18.95 for a box of 8, 0.35oz packets)

The Science: True Lemon Curb helps support appetite control, digestive health, balanced hydration and everyday vitality via 5g of Prebiotic Fiber per serving and a Proprietary Phyto True Curb Blend (with chlorogenic acid [from green coffee bean], EGCG, and 30mg of natural caffeine [from green tea extract] to help curb cravings and support feelings of fullness and digestive health; and 600mg of Balanced Electrolytes to help improve hydration and support cellular absorption. 

True Lemon Defend your wellness offers a significant shift in immune support from reactive (when someone feels sick) to a proactive, year-round healthy habit. True Lemon Defend goes beyond Vitamin C, offering holistic health support that not only helps support the immune system and cellular health but promotes balanced hydration and everyday vitality. Available in three flavors: Citrus Blend, Berry Blend, and Raspberry Lime Blend. ($18.95 for a box of 12, 0.25oz packets)

The Science: True Lemon Defend contains a Proprietary Phyto True Antioxidant Blend with 300mg of plant-based antioxidants* from acerola cherries (containing 150mg of Vitamin C, 167% DV), pomegranates, citrus peels and green tea to help support the immune system and healthy cells and 600mg of Balanced Electrolytes to help improve hydration and support cellular absorption.

* Antioxidants only help if the body can absorb them. Scientific testing confirmed all four key antioxidants in True Lemon Defend (Vitamin C, Hesperidin, Ellagic Acid, EGCG) are bioavailable, meaning they can cross the intestinal barrier for use by the body.

Testing also showed these ingredients work synergistically, meaning they absorb just as effectively together as they do alone, and Ellagic Acid's absorption is absorbed better when combined in True Lemon Defend, meaning there is no compromising one benefit for another.

True Lemon Elevate your potential fulfills the demand for alternatives to sugary, artificial and crash-producing, high-octane energy drinks. Ideal for wellness-conscious consumers and non-athletes alike, True Lemon Elevate offers clean, multi-functional ingredients that help support energy, focus and clarity, balanced hydration and everyday vitality. Available in two delicious flavors: Citrus Blast and Berry Blast. ($18.95 for a box of 12, 0.21oz packets)

The Science: True Lemon Elevate provides no crash, no jitter energy via a Proprietary Phyto True Energy & Focus Blend (120mg of plant-based caffeine from green tea extract to help avoid crash or jitters, 200mg of L-Theanine, 200mg of GABA and 60mg magnesium to help support sustained focus, mental clarity and overall mood); Vitamin C (100% DV) to energize and support vitality, and 600mg of Balanced Electrolytes to help improve hydration and support cellular absorption.

True Lemon Wellness products are available for purchase exclusively at www.TrueCitrus.com.
