Product Details


Design & Functionality
ExtraLife is a revolutionary household product that preserves fresh fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator crisper bin. ExtraLife works naturally by neutralizing excess ethylene gas that builds up in the crisper bin as produce ripens. The active ingredient in Extra Life is natural zeolite and potassium permanganate, ingredients that commercial produce and florist suppliers have used for years. ExtraLife can add several days of life to your fresh produce. This will help you to waste less food, eat healthier and save money.

Once activated and placed into the crisper bin, one ExtraLife disk is effective for 3 months–an unbeatable value!

How Does It Work?
Ethylene gas is nature's ripening agent. As fruits and vegetables ripen in their natural environment, the ethylene is released into the surrounding air. However, when ethylene is released inside the refrigerator, it gets trapped and builds up causing produce to ripen much faster than it would in nature.

ExtraLife was invented to alleviate this problem. Its active ingredients are completely safe and natural and has been scientifically proven by an idependent laboratory to neutralize up to 97% of the ethylene gas in a confined space and slow ripening, which helps produce stay fresh longer and retain vitamin potency.

Cool Fact
The active ingredient in ExtraLife is recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture in its Handbook #668 to counteract the negative effects of ethylene gas on fresh fruits and vegetables.

Non-reusable plastic
2 out of 2 customers found this review helpful

by Rebecca R - 12/2008

Non-reusable plastic. Goes into the garbage after use. A better Product is the E.G.G. (Ethylene Gas Guardian) which provides the same function but offers refill cartridges and the plastic can be reused over and over again.

This is a great product! My fresh produce is lasting longer, much longer. I tested the product out with a tomato. Two weeks later, the tomato still looks pretty good. This product is helping me save money. I definitely recommend it!

by Roxanne N - 10/2009

I had been using the ExtraLife produce bags and really liked them but the disks seemed like an easier way to use this product. No more bag rinsing and drying. Now I just pop the disk into the drawer with the same results.....fresher produce for a longer time.

DUDE!
1 out of 1 customers found this review helpful

by Shinshan W - 09/2009

DUDE! This product is no joke! It really does help to preserve my produce longer. I've been using this for about three years now and didn't realize just how well it works until I got too busy to order new ones and had my old ones "expire" past the three months period. Of course, I quickly ordered more when I started to notice my soft leaf veggies (i.e. basil) were wilting sooner than "usual." Side Note: I love how the disks are small and flat. A must-buy!

I was skeptical, but no more. These disks have truly extended the life of my vegetables. Plain and Simple. I am on my second set of disks. Much more convenient than the bags and really really works. I am hooked. Thanks TJ Sterling Farmington Hills, MI

Product Saver Really Saves

by Barbara H - 02/2010

I bought one package of two -- one for each refrigerator produce drawer -- to try out this product. I'm happy to say that it really works! I'm so pleased that I just bought a year's supply of them to keep on hand. I find that fresh fruits and veggies last a lot longer now; this is a money saver for single and infrequent shoppers like me. I don't know if other Product Saver users do this, but I also put most items in mesh bags to allow gasses to escape inside the drawers. I think this practice helps the discs to their job even more efficiently.

by Veni F - 11/2009

I discovered these amazing little items in the commissary. I was skeptical when I read the packaging, but decided that as much produce as we go through -- and lose because it goes bad so fast -- it was worth a try. Long story short, I can't live without them now. And naturally, the commissary stopped carrying them! At least I've been able to find them online, and I give these little miracles the highest review possible. I tell everyone about them.

by Barbara M - 06/2009

I have used ExtraLife disks for years and can't do without them. They really do retard fruit and vegetable spoilage very well and last the three months as advertised. For anyone who can't use up fresh produce fast enough to always avoid having to throw out some dying lettuce, etc., these disks are the answer.
