Beyond Organic’s Suero Viv – What is it?
Listen here to what Jordan Rubin has to say about Suero Viv:
- Suero Viv : Cultured Whey
My Children Love Suero Viv. When our Beyond Organic box arrived from the “Organics Truck” (FedEx) my children helped me open the box, and they proceeded to have a taste test. All three of my children then decided to have a neighborhood taste test. The verdict on the 3 flavors: 4 loved the raspberry lemonade, 3 loved the citrus, and 2 loved the orange cinnamon. Dr. Sean and I are split too, I love the Raspberry lemonade and Dr. Sean Loves the Orange Cinnamon. Since opening our boxes our household has Suero Viv just about everyday. They come in 16 oz bottles as shown below. Of course my children do not drink the whole 16 oz bottle. Finally an alternative to sports drinks full of sugar, nasty chemicals and colored dyes.

Suero Viv translated means “Whey of Life”: The Whey we are all familiar with is usually Whey Protein, a supplement created by separating the protein from the whey and drying it. The Suero Viv Whey is from Beyond Organic GrassFed (TM) Dairy Cattle and is loaded with probiotics, for preservation and health benefits. This is not a new concept. Hippocrates called the whey “Healing Water.” What this does is take us back to our “grass roots” of ancient times, with cattle that roam free and eat nothing but grass and other greens. Beyond Organic’s Suero Viv contains:
GreenFed (TM) Cultured Whey
Reign Supreme Mountain Spring Water
Organic Honey
Organic Lemon Juice
Probiotic Cultures
Based on Flavors:
Organic Raspberry Juice
Organic Lemon Essential Oil
Organic Orange Essential Oil
Organic Cinnamon
1.Cultured Whey – This truly “super” beverage is loaded with nutrition in the form of electrolytes and B vitamins. People have commented on the completely “replenished” feeling SueroViv provides after a long day or exhausting workout. Virtually unavailable in today’s modern diet, cultured whey was traditionally used as a main component at over 100 health retreats and spas in 18th and 19th century Switzerland.
2. Probiotics – SueroViv is cultured using beneficial microorganisms that create enzymes and organic acids. These compounds have been prized since the dawn of civilization.
3. Essential Oils – the life essence of plants, essential oils contain concentrated antioxidants and beneficial compounds and have been considered to be more valuable than precious metals and gem stones as a means of currency in biblical times. Essential oils are celebrated the world over as a topical and oral health boost. SueroViv is the only beverage we know of containing powerful organic essential oils in every sip.
Health Benefits: Include:
1. Whey Increases intestinal peristalsis (mechanically how the muscle in the intestine moves food along), both by the muscle of the intestine and chemically by the lactic acid of the whey. (This alone has helped many patients and friends with constipation). This works very gentle, with out the use of harsh stimulates like laxatives.
2. Whey Helps Eliminate Excess Water from Tissues : Bodily tissues hold a certain amount of fluids that are retained there, and among other things, the presence of salt. Too much salt and the body tends to hold on to the fluid (this is why it is so important to drink water, to flush the systems out), developing edema, causing swelling of the legs, hands and feet. A small percentage have a salt sensitivity, I am one of those. My hands and feet swell with just the simplest processed food which is loaded with sodium. Hence the reason I don’t go near processed food. Whey is rich in potassium. The potassium is the natural enemy of salt and expels it from the body along with the water it has retained. Without the use of diuretics and the imbalance of minerals it causes in the body.
3. Flushing the Kidneys: The Whey helps the Kidneys flush out toxins that are “hanging” out in the blood. Thereby helping other organ systems to function better.
4. Regenerating and encouraging growth of “Good” Bacteria, which are also known as probiotics in the Intestines. The Lactose in the whey inhibits the “bad” destructive bacteria and helps to encourage growth of new “good” bacteria in the gut. When our bacteria is balanced we are sick less and our immune system is strong. But if you ever are on medications that destroy your flora such as antibiotics, I always recommend using organic yogurt and now Amasai (TM) and all the Beyond Organic foods, to help rebuild and restore the normal flora. Why? Because the antibiotic attacks all bacteria, “good” and “bad”. Therefore if you don’t replenish the “good” then you tend to get better after the antibiotic is done and then two weeks later or a month later get sick again, and you are back on antibiotics, and so on and so forth.
All the Beyond Organic foods are full of probiotics, and that is why Dr. Sean Matteo and myself recommend Beyond Organic. A healthy Gut equals a healthy person!
Thank you, In Good Health
