Superfoods: The Food and Medicine of the Future by David Wolfe
(2009, full-color softcover book printed on eco-friendly paper with vegetable-based inks, 342 pages)
You can still get all your vitamins and minerals from food. How? With Superfoods.
Superfoods are the most powerful, nutritious, mineral-rich plant foods on Earth and are the great gifts given to us by the greatest civilizations that have ever existed. The Chinese civilization gave us goji berries, the Aztecs/Toltecs/Mayans/Olmecs gave us cacao (raw chocolate), and the Egyptians gave us aloe vera. Polynesians gave us noni, the Incan peoples gave us maca, central Africans gave us spirulina, and beekeepers around the world gave us bee pollen, propolis, and royal jelly. Right now, this is the moment of our awakening, when we can finally bring all these superfoods together.
Superfoods represent an awesome piece of the nutrition puzzle as they are the best natural sources of clean pesticide-free and chemical-free:
Protein (most superfoods are complete protein sources)
Vitamins
Minerals
Enzymes
Antioxidants
Co-enzymes
Good fats and oils
Essential fatty acids
Essential amino acids
Fiber
Polysaccharides (glyconutrients or essential sugars)
Superfoods go a long way towards making us more well-balanced in behavior and demeanor. This is due to their ability to help remineralize our tissues and offer deep, well-rounded nutritional support.
Superfoods immediately help nourish our brain, bones, muscles, skin, hair, nails, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, reproductive system, pancreas, and most importantly our immune system. Over the long-term, superfoods work to correct imbalances and guide us towards a more natural and original diet. When we consume superfoods it becomes dramatically easier to achieve our ideal weight, diet, and food habits. Superfoods ease our efforts to detoxify and make the transition to more healthy foods a snap…all we have to do is enjoy their gifts!
Superfoods can help us to:
Maintain a healthy weight.
Get all the protein we could ever need.
Improve our immune system.
Nutritionally saturate our bodies with super-nutrients.
