Quote of the week: "You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along' . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do." - Eleanor Roosevelt

Breast Cancer Fund

In response to the public health crisis of breast cancer, the Breast Cancer Fund identifies and advocates for the elimination of the environmental and other preventable causes of the disease. The Breast Cancer Fund was founded in 1992.

The Breast Cancer Fund tirelessly fights to challenge the myths and perceptions surrounding breast cancer while providing inspiration to the women who suffer from the disease. Through public education, prevention and public policy initiatives, Breast Cancer Fund mobilizes the public and secures the institutional changes and legislative reforms necessary to eliminate the environmental links to breast cancer.

As Breast Cancer Fund's Lead Corporate Sponsor, LUNA is an active partner of BCF through financial support, event sponsorship, and participation in its programs to prevent breast cancer.

LUNA's commitment to Breast Cancer Fund is consistent with the company's long-term commitment of providing healthy food and a clean environment. We believe that what we put into our bodies, as well as on our bodies, is incredibly important to our health and well-being.

With the wide reaching effects of breast cancer, and the devastating number of women diagnosed each year, the women of LUNA are proud to join in the fight and support BCF's mission. By working together, with daring dedication and determination, we can move mountains, one step at a time.

Featured Product
LUNA Moons

I recently tried the new LUNA Moons on a group ride.  Right away I noticed the size of the package and how easily it fit in the back pocket of my jersey.  The pack of  pomegranate Moons I tried were a modest 100 calories and 6 to a pack, which equals 1 serving.

Moons are smaller and easier to handle than their Shot Blox kin. They have a nice - sweet but not not too sweet - fruity punch and a firm texture that made my mouth happy.  I followed them with some water and set out for a 30-mile ride. At the half-way mark, I finished the pack.  I found that one pack of Moons helped me maintain enough energy for a leisurely ride.  It’s also pretty cool that Moons contain Vitamin C and that they gel with pectin rather than gelatin. Moons currently come in three flavors: pomegranate, blueberry and watermelon and sell for only $1.29 at your local bike shop!
