Chicago, IL (PRWEB) December 11, 2007 -- A poll of 100 U.S. health consumers resulted in the following top five recommendations for products that can make the new year more healthy, tasty, informative and greener:

1. Green and Blacks organic chocolate:
"Sumptuous, decadent and all natural," said Alicia R. of Santa Barbara, California, about Green and Black's wide variety of chocolates. The company engages in fair trade practices with its suppliers, and says it obsesses over the tiniest details in "the true art of chocolate making."

2. Jack LaLanne Power Juicer:
It's been around for years, but serious juice drinkers swear by its sturdy design and ability to handle extra-large fruits and vegetables. "I had a bunch of other juicers and they either broke or wore out within a year or two. This one's been going strong (twice a day) for six years. Built like a rock!" offered one respondent.

3. Paul's Organic Soap:
"My face looks and feels years younger," said one enthusiastic respondent about the effects of this soap that contains only eight "food-grade, organic" ingredients. Each hand-crafted bar takes almost a month to produce, yielding a "gentle, luxurious, yet deep cleaning soap" free of additives, artificial colors or fragrances.

4. Natural Health magazine:
"Informative and entertaining" is how Frank N. of Columbus, Ohio described this periodical that covers topics from exercise and fitness, to home care, healthcare and diet. With a mission "to educate not dictate," Natural Health distinguishes itself with "very balanced" reporting and a fast growing readership.

5. Jim's Double Chocolate Organic Coffee:
"It combines the fullness of hot chocolate with the flavor and body of a gourmet coffee," explained one happy respondent. Another fair trade company, Jim's uses only the freshest organic ingredients and offers a wide assortment of additional coffee flavors.
