Revealed! - Superfoods

By Jane McQuigan


Superfoods by their very nature are foods that have the ability to heighten our energy, and general wellness more than regular foods. Superfoods are natural foods that are rich in vitamins, minerals and enzymes, with high levels of antioxidants that help the body fight free radicals and prevent cell damage.

Superfoods help to strengthen blood, nourish our essential organs and revitalise and rebuild damaged cells. Particular superfoods have the power to detox our whole system.

While a rich diverseness of whole foods such as many green leaf veges should be the lynchpin of any wholesome diet, science indicates that it is sometimes difficult for most of us to eat decent amounts of these foods on a frequent basis.

Alas, with today's fast paced work hard life-style, many people oftentimes acquire nutritional deficiencies, which can also be induced by diet because the intake of vital nutrients is severely lacking. If you can incorporate just one or two of these superfoods in your diet, daily, they can literally improve your life. Many people discover vigour levels are massively elevated, brain function is stronger and overall health and welfare is greatly improved.

The umpteen health gains of superfoods which include chlorella are undeniable and these superfoods are also valuable at preventing a number of diseases and therefore should form the basis of any disease prevention programme.

Superfoods are really important and are lush with potent nutrients and enzymes needed for optimal health and wellbeing and are far more than just "supplements". Superfoods really are Mother Earth's gifts to us.

For the best results we would invariably recommend eating these superfoods at least 4-6 weeks although nearly all people will begin to discover differences in vitality levels, appetite etc within a few days to a week although this does depend entirely upon the person, general diet, life-style and health product.

Superfoods are also an outstanding way to make up for dietary inadequacies. So having spirulina powder for example would help people missing in B vitamins. Remember, superfoods are living foods and will feed the body with lost or deficient mineral vitamins and other important nutrients. I almost forgot to mention that superfoods like maca are also tasty and make really delicious, nutritious low fat snacks!
