Not only does Gac•Chi capture the protective power of the gac fruit, it’s complemented by other carotenoid-rich fruits such as seabuckthorn berry, rosehips and goji berry, and blended with juices of apple, pear, grape, aronia, roselle, acerola and cranberry—for the perfect balance of health and good taste.
Sip an ounce of exotic Gac•Chi daily, and experience what it can do for you:
- Supports heart health*
- Supports eye health*
- Builds the immune system*
- Protects cellular DNA from free radicals, which reduces some of the common effects of the aging process*

70 times more lycopene than tomatoes
Tomatoes have been all over the news lately because they’re rich in lycopene—a potent antioxidant carotenoid that protects the cardiovascular system. Researchers aren’t exactly sure why lycopene is so heart-healthy, but initial studies indicate it helps maintain healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
10 times more beta-carotene than carrots.
Turns out the old folklore that carrots are good for your eyes is actually true. Carrots are high in beta-carotene, a carotenoid which appears to provide antioxidant protection to the macula of the eyes.*
Since they’re directly exposed to the UV rays in sunshine every day, your eyes need all the protection they can get. And once again, our friend gac outshines the favored American vegetable. Because gac fruit has 10 times the beta-carotene content of carrots.
Better absorbed than pills
You can find lycopene and beta-carotene in pill form at your local health food store. Why anyone would prefer to swallow yet another pill over sipping an ounce or two of delicious tropical nectar is beyond us. But aside from its culinary appeal, there’s a scientific reason to choose Gac•Chi™ over lycopene and beta-carotene pills: it provides better absorption of these key carotenoids.*
No more pills. Get your daily lycopene and beta-carotene in only one ounce of delicious Gac•Chi juice.
Because lycopene and beta-carotene are both fat-soluble, they are more readily absorbed in the presence of fats. That’s why you can’t absorb the beta-carotene as well in foods (or pills) that have no fat content. In a pleasant coincidence, the lycopene and beta-carotene in gac fruit occur as lipid-bound carotenes, which is a fancy way of saying they’re bound to fatty acids.
Made from the whole fruit of the gac, and artfully blended with a symphony of other healthful juices, Gac•Chi provides everything you need to make sure all those good-for-you carotenoids are absorbed.
What is Gac fruit?
Meet the gac fruit. Colorful and covered in spines, she’s no wallflower. This climbing vine can be found in Southeast Asia, growing in the wild and gracing the entrances of rural homes. In Vietnam, her color and flavor are so highly prized, she’s used to season a rice dish called xoi gac, served only at special occasions such as weddings.
Gac is a fruit, but she’s also a healthy tradition. Known as “mubiezi” in traditional Chinese medicine, gac seeds are employed for a wide variety of internal and external uses. In Vietnam, the seed membranes are used to address dry eyes and support healthy vision. There, she’s considered “a gift from above”.*
While the vine is abundant and hardy, the gac only fruits once a year. But we thought she was worth stocking up on.
