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.

Page 4: Guide to buying superfood powder

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

Page 5: Guide to buying superfood powder

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.

Page 7: Guide to buying superfood powder

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

1. Mix a week's supply of the powder by combining 2 tsp. of each

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:

Spirulina- a member of the algae family, spirulina is the highest

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

antidioxidant and an immune enhancer.

powerful anti-bacterial food.

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.

Page 12: Guide to buying superfood powder

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.

Page 13: Guide to buying superfood powder

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

Page 15: Guide to buying superfood powder

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.

walnuts, green tea, spinach, and more. Remember that you'll always
