1.Guide To Buying Superfood Powder
Unlike before when you had to look for an individual superfood,
nowadays you easily get all of your favorite superfoods in powder
form. Presence of the foods in a bottle is not only convenient, it's
also affordable. For you to buy the right food powder you need to
consider a number of factors:
Nutritional quality
The main reason of taking superfoods is for the benefits that they
come with. Some help you lose weight, while others help you stay
alkalized and hydrated. The reason for taking the foods solely
depends on your needs. To achieve your target take superfoods with
the ingredients that you are interested in. To know the ingredients in
the foods you should read the labels. The common ingredients in
most foods are:
Digestive enzymes: These help you with digestion and absorbance.
They are ideal for you if you have a sensitive digestion. The enzymes
have also been found to be important in improving the nutritional
impact of other ingredients. When making the purchase, look out for
products with papain, cellulose, bromelain, and amylase.

Fibers: Fibers are mainly found in fruits and play a vital role in
digestion. While they are good, be wary of a product that has more
than 750 mg of fiber in one serving.
Greens: They include: kale, parsley, spinach, and bok choy. They
serve important functions including giving you vitamins and fiber. To
reap the benefits provided by the greens, go for a product with at
least 200 mg of greens.
Lecithin: Lecithin is found in almost all superfoods. It provides the
foods with a smooth, creamy taste. It's made up of fatty acids and
phosphatides which are important in the central nervous system.
Studies have also shown that the ingredient also aids in cognitive
performance, longevity and improvement of memory.
Antioxidants: They have different functions including killing
cancerous cells and keeping you looking younger for longer. When
making the purchase go for products with MSM, dandelion root,
green tea, Alpha Lipoic Acid, stragalus and resveratrol.

Cost of the product
Just like when buying any other product, the cost of the product
plays a huge role in determining whether you buy the superfood or
not. For you to buy a product it should have value to you. To
determine the value of the product determine the total number of
servings per container, number of the grams per serving, and
presence of enzymes and probiotics.
If you do your calculations and find that the product has value to
you, go ahead and make the purchase. As rule of thumb buy a
product that provides a wide range of high quality ingredients.
Taste
To enjoy taking the superfood it should have a great taste. Before
making the purchase, ask to have a sample so that you can taste it.
Conclusion
This is a guide on how to buy superfood powders. Experts
recommend that you avoid buying products that are more than $70.
Also avoid buying from retail stores as retail prices are usually
marked up. The best brands also often avoid the stores. To be safe
buy online, or in wholesale stores.

2. 5 Key Superfoods to Energize Your Green
Smoothies
If you and your family do not eat enough healthy fruits and green
vegetables on a daily basis, try drinking green smoothies as a simple
and easy way to make sure that you consume the recommended
daily amounts of vitamin rich and nutritious fruits and vegetables.
Smoothies enable you to consume fruits and vegetables in their raw
form, thereby, retaining all of their nutritional value and strength.
Several foods are classified as super foods: Spinach, wild Salmon,
berries, pumpkin, Turkey and beans to name a few. I want to show
you how to boost the benefits of the smoothies you drink by adding
what I classify as the 5 key superfoods in their pure and natural form:
Chlorella, Spirulina, Alfalfa, Wheat grass and Barley grass powders.
This article teaches you about their benefits and how to add them to
your smoothies for a power packed, vitamins, minerals and enzymes
rich that should increase your vitality, boost your immune system
and increase your red blood cell count.
You can purchase the following list of superfoods in powder form
from your local health food store or order it from a reputable
Internet vendor.
>>>For More Information Please Click Here!<<<
Key #1: Chlorella - is renowned for its detoxification properties. It can
aid your body to breakdown heavy metal toxins such as mercury,
cadmium, and lead. It helps you to flush out any toxicity to pesticides
such as DDT and PCB at the same time that it boosts your immune
system. Chlorella is green algae whose name derives from the word,
Chlorophyll. It contains more of this substance per gram (3% to 5%)
than any other plant.
Key #2: Spirulina - is a single cell blue-green algae whose name
derives from it spiral shape. It is an excellent source of protein, non-
animal source of vitamin B12, vitamin A, vitamin E; minerals such as,
potassium, zinc, magnesium, selenium, calcium, iron and
phosphorus. It also contains amino acids and chlorophyll. Spirulina is
used as an immune system booster, energizer and a non-toxic, all
natural and vegetarian method to add extra nutrition to your diet.
Key #3: Alfalfa - is an Arabic word that translates as "the father of
plants". It is rich in protein and vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B6,
vitamin C, vitamin E, and vitamin K. It also contains calcium,
potassium, carotene, iron, and zinc. Alfalfa plays a role in
strengthening bones and boosting the overall maintenance of your
health.

Key #4: Wheat grass - is one of the cereal grasses that can be
consumed as juice or in a powder form. It builds red blood cells,
boosts the immune system, detoxifies your body by draining your
lymph system and carries away many toxins from body cells. Wheat
grass is power packed with vitamins, minerals, amino acids, as many
as 30 enzymes and consists of up to 70% raw chlorophyll.
Key #5 Barley grass - like wheat grass, barley grass is another of the
cereal grasses that can be consumed as juice or in powder form.
When compared to wheat grass, some sources claim that wheat
grass contains more B6, B12, Iron and Chlorophyll; but barley grass is
reputed to contain double the amount of all the other vitamins,
minerals and amino acids not listed in the previous sentence, than
wheat grass. This is why I recommend adding both of them to your
green smoothies.
If you are not familiar with how to make a green smoothie, here is
what you do.
Basic Green Smoothie Recipe
1. Fresh raw greens (Kale, Spinach, Salad greens, Water Cress, etc.)
should make up about 40% of the smoothie
2. Fresh fruits (Bananas, Apples, Papaya, Mango, etc.) should make
up 50% to 60% of the smoothie. Add powdered superfoods mixture
in the blender, see instructions, below.
3. If the fruit is not sufficiently sweet enough for your taste, you can
add 3-4 dried dates or a handful of raisins to add a natural
sweetener. I do not suggest that you sweeten with regular sugar,
brown or otherwise.
4. Put all of the ingredients in a blender, add some water and blend
to a smooth consistency. Add more water as you blend, if necessary.

Mixing and Adding Superfoods Powders to Green Smoothies

powder for each day, in a container with a lid. Stir it until it is mixed
together, well. Refrigerate the mixture or at least, keep in a cool
place.
2. After adding the ingredients of the green smoothie of your choice
to the blender, add 2 tsp. of the powder and blend well.
3. Drink an 8 oz. glass or more per day to achieve optimal benefits.
Add these nutritious, vitalizing and energizing superfood additions to
your green smoothies right away and start enjoying the overall
health benefits they provide for you and your family.
3. How Live Superfoods Improve Health
Live superfoods have probably been around since the dawn of man.
However, though once a fundamental component in everyone's diet
they lost their popularity after the birth of the Industrial Age which
introduced processed food. Today, live superfoods are making a
comeback. We are once again understanding their importance in
everyday eating. Moreover, the health benefits of superfoods are
second to none. Not even conventional medicine can match
superfoods in effectiveness.
What are live superfoods? Live superfoods are those unprocessed
foods high in phytonutrient content. These foods are antidioxidant
rich, provide the human body with longevity, high energy, and low
risk of illness and disease. You can consume live superfoods in a
variety of ways. For instance, superfood powders may be added to
smoothies, yogurt or juice and absorbed as a liquid. You may also
consume live superfoods as a dried fruit or berry for a convenient,
nutrient-rich snack. There are many types of live superfoods ranging
from berries to seaweeds. Among them are:

protein food in the world. It's an anti-aging food as well as an

4. How To Make Superfood Smoothies
Superfood smoothies are not only easy to make, but they are also
highly nutritious and very filling. They are perfect for helping in
weight loss, as they can help to curb the nasty food cravings that are
often associated with the process of losing weight. Superfood
smoothies are also great for helping the body to stay healthy and
disease free, as they contain high amounts of antioxidants that help
eliminate harmful toxins that contribute to disease.
Really, there are no rules when it comes to making superfood
smoothies, as long as you like what you are drinking, and your body
likes it, then you can drink whatever you like. Basically, there are
three types of superfood smoothies, which are green smoothies,
fruit smoothies and hot smoothies, and you can have lots of fun
experimenting with them all.
>>>For More Information Please Click Here!<<<
Green Smoothies
Green smoothies are very simple to make, as all you do is take your
favorite greens and blend them together into a smoothie. These
smoothies are generally bitter, but you can neutralize the bitterness
by adding some sweet fruit, or the juice of lemons. You can also add
a bit of sea salt, which also helps to take away the bitterness.
Fruit Smoothies
Fruit smoothies are usually a hit with everyone, as they are naturally
sweet. They are also quite refreshing and nourishing to help curb
food cravings. Therefore, they are a great alternative to any snack, or
even a meal.
To make fruit smoothies, simply take your favorite fruits and berries
and blend them together for a nutritious smoothie. You can also add
nuts and seeds for a natural nutty flavor. Avocados and coconut oil
are also excellent additions to any fruit smoothie, as they can help to
enhance the flavor as well as provide you with a rich texture.
Hot Smoothies
Hot smoothies are a great substitute for those who enjoy hot drinks.
They are a great alternative for those who are trying to quit coffee,
as they too are hot drinks that you can sip in the same way that you
would a cup of coffee. Thus the only thing missing is the high amount
of caffeine.
To make the hot smoothies, all you need is some hot water and your
favorite superfood powder such as raw cacao, maca, acai and
ashwagandha. You can also add a natural sweetener, as well as some
coconut oil for a rich and creamy texture. And instead of just using
hot water, you can also use tea, or warm nut milk.

The Benefits
Not only do superfood smoothies taste good, but there are also
many health benefits of the smoothies. These include weight loss,
better mind function, heart health and they are good for keeping the
hormones in balance as well.
The reason superfood smoothies are so good for weight loss, is that
they are generally low in calories, but yet high in essential nutrients.
Many superfoods such as acai and raw cacao are especially helpful in
weight loss, as acai helps to clean out the digestive tract, and raw
cacao is able to help stabilize the emotions.
As for heart heat and better mind function, the smoothies help to
eliminate toxins from the body, which can contribute to excess fat
cells in the body. As a result, the arteries can potentially become
clogged, which in turn can contribute to heart problems as well as a
poor memory. The mind requires plenty of blood in order to be
healthy, as the blood helps to deliver oxygen and other nutrients to
the brain. If the brain does not receive these nutrients, then it begins
to malfunction.

5. The Top Superfoods For Your Diet
If you're interested in increasing the amount of superfoods in your
diet, you might want to start by incorporating some of the ones
which provide the most health benefits. These top superfoods can do
wonders for your body and your health in many ways. Here's a look
at some of the ones you should be eating now.
Fish
While most of the top superfoods come from the produce section,
fish is one striking exception. The reason comes down to a powerful
nutrient known as Omega-3 fatty acid. This compound can be found
in fatty fish, such as salmon, sardines, and herring. Thankfully, these
same fish are the ones less likely to contain high concentrations of
mercury. By eating fish twice per week, you can cut back on your risk
of diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease, strokes, and even
Alzheimer's disease.
Soy
Another of the non-produce aisle top superfoods is soy. Soy is rich in
protein which makes it the perfect replacement for red meat in your
diet. However, some research has also found that soy can reduce the
risk of cancer, kidney disease, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer's disease.
Part of the benefit comes from the isoflavones, these powerful
antioxidants, can help prevent cancer, aging, and possibly heart
disease.

Tomatoes
Lycopene is one of the most well-known antioxidants, and it can be
found in large amounts in tomatoes and tomato-products. Thanks to
lycopene, you can greatly reduce your risk of cancer, particularly if
you make a habit of eating your tomatoes with olive oil.
Pumpkin
Although you might have always thought pumpkin pie was super,
pumpkins are among the top superfoods for a couple of reasons.
First, they are rich in carotenoids. These are antioxidants proven to
reduce the risk of cancer. They also contain large quantities of beta-
carotene, as well as alpha-carotene. These antioxidants can help
your immune system work better and can actually prevent you from
getting cataracts.
Blueberries
In terms of top superfoods, you don't get much better than
blueberries. These delectable fruits contain a wide range of healthful
compounds. Their blue color means they are rich in anthocyanidins,
these chemicals can help improve brain functioning and can reduce
the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Blueberries are also rich in
amhocyanidins which promote heart health and reduce cancer risks.
