This is truly a chocolate superfood product. Five stars, highly recommended. Life Force (www.LifeForceLLC.net) Have you ever felt like you actually fell in love with a food product? It sounds strange, but I recently fell in love with the Life Force line of chocolate products made by Life Force LLC. It's hard to give this company all the credit it deserves in such a brief article (I could write an entire article just about Life Force products), but here's the short version: Outstanding taste, all raw, organic ingredients and lots of good vibes.

I'm joined by Jan Lovejoy, the founder of Emerald Balance -- one of the most potent nutritional superfood powder products available on the market today.

Lovejoy: Well, it actually goes back to 1970, when I started with nutrition and really studied nutrition for my own health. Then many things happened.

Your product gives the nutrition of all of those fruits and vegetables and some of the superfood grasses as well, correct? Burt: It does, and there are so many great things about getting all of these different colors. We actually did a test. We tested the antioxidant level on it, and we found out that one serving, or one scoop, is equivalent to approximately three servings of fruits and vegetables. In one glass, you're getting the antioxidant power of approximately three servings of fruits and veggies.

Such a superfood is now available. It's the "super chia" I'm talking about here. This super chia isn't black like chia, however. Its seeds are white. What does that mean to you as a consumer? It means that you can put it in a coffee grinder and grind it up into fine white flour. Then you can take that white flour-like substance – which is really loaded with omega-3 oils and complete proteins and minerals that are missing from wheat-derived flour – and you can put it into breads and pasta and use it as a replacement for flour in your kitchen.

They have an outstanding new product called "Kidz superfood." We're going to talk about this and why it's important for the nutrition of children, and how this product tastes fantastic -- unlike many of the others that children just don't want to drink. Brandon Burt: Taste is here, and there's one for children and adults, too. Mike: You actually conducted some taste trials on this to get the right taste, correct? Can you talk about that a little bit? Burt: We did.
Mike: Again, it's Brandon Burt here with the Amazing Grass Company talking about "Kidz SuperFood" product. The taste is great. The nutrition is built into the product. If you're having trouble getting nutrition into your children's bodies, try this product. You can find it again at www.AmazingGrass.com or look for it at natural health food stores and quality grocers all around the country. Thank you, Brandon. Burt: Thanks. As we like to say, we've taken the "yuck" out of eating fruits and vegetables. Mike: Good slogan. I like it. Burt: Thanks a lot, Mike.

Super Healthy Gift Ideas for the Holiday Season

When you give someone this superfood gift set, you'll look like a genius compared to the goofballs who bought a bunch of the same old boring junk food baskets as Christmas gifts. In fact, if you want to make your coworkers look like idiots -- and who doesn't? -- give your boss some superfoods for Christmas!) Superfoods are especially important around the Christmas season because so many people are eating so much garbage foods that they desperately need a boost in nutrition.

As an individual consumer, you can buy this superfood by the pound and use it in your own cooking in lots of innovative ways, which I will describe for you. But first, let me tell you why I'm so excited about this and what this could mean for nutrition across this country and around the world. People all over the world are nutritionally starved If you think about the problems in nutrition today, they're very simple to describe. People are eating lots and lots of food, but they're starving themselves because they don't have good nutrition.
Replace harmful baking products with super chia You can mix this superfood into many recipes, and since it's white, you won't notice any color difference, and no one in your family will notice any color difference. So if you bake your own bread, but your children will only eat white bread, guess what? You can now make white bread with 20 percent or 30 percent super chia, and all of a sudden, it transforms that bread from a nutrient-depletion product to a nutrient-delivering product.

Maca Magic: the Peruvian superfood for hormone balance and much more

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Known as the superfood of the Inca, it's been around for perhaps 10,000 years. When we first went to Peru 15 years ago, there were only two acres of maca left in production, so it was virtually extinct. Maca is now well known as an endocrine modulator, or an endocrine adaptogen, working on the pituitary through the hypothalamus, communicating with all the glands of internal secretion, the whole endocrine system.

Accelerator is a superfood blend containing rice bran and other high-density nutrition ingredients. It's great for blending into smoothies. I use it daily for sustained energy. Private Reserve superfood is a flax-based superfood meal replacement powder that's loaded with phytonutrients and healthy oils. At first, I found the taste a bit strong on the flax, but I got used to it in a couple of weeks and now I frankly enjoy it. Definitely not cheap stuff, but worth every penny. Only for those who want the very best for their bodies.

I drink a raw superfood smoothie each morning, made of fresh produce and superfoods. My two favorite recipes are chocolate (with raw cacao, coconut oil or macadamia nut oil, raw avocado, spirulina, quinoa, banana and almond milk) and super berry (fresh berries, freeze-dried berries, egg white protein, stevia, aloe vera gel, fresh cucumber or watermelon, celery). I put no personal care products on my skin whatsoever: No deodorants, no fragrance, no skin creams, no cosmetics and no sunscreen.

Here are my favorites: Antioxidant Defense System - PURPLE is essentially a superfood powder made of phytonutrient-rich plants (fruits and vegetables) that provide literally hundreds of different nutrients that support health, fight disease and protect the body from free radical damage. When I talk about eating "superfoods" in my articles and books, this is the kind of superfood I'm talking about. Read the ingredients on this product and you'll be amazed: pomegranate seeds, acai, goji berries, camu camu, mangosteen, elderberries, purple carrots (my favorite!) and many more.

Made with irish moss and loaded with raw superfood ingredients, these tortillas are the answer for those folks who want to eat healthier, but miss tortillas or breads. These raw tortillas manage to stay soft and pliable -- even when they're completely dried -- due to their use of irish moss (an ocean grown superfood loaded with trace minerals and anti-cancer polysaccharides). They can ship these all over the world because they contain no moisture and therefore have a long shelf life. They're super delicious, too!

Walnuts are the headliner for this category of superfood for a number of reasons. They are one of the few rich sources of plant-derived omega-3 fatty acids (called alpha linolenic acid, or ALA) along with canola oil, ground flaxseed and flaxseed oil, soybeans and soybean oil, wheat germ, spinach, and purslane. They are rich in plant sterols—plant sterols can play a significant role in lowering serum cholesterol levels—a good source of fiber and protein, and they also provide magnesium, copper, folate, and vitamin E. Finally, they're the nut with the highest overall antioxidant activity.
These foods meet my own superfood criteria: they're all fairly close to whole foods—which is to say, they're minimally, or "healthfully," processed and they're low or at least relatively low in sodium and fat (no trans fats) and high in fiber and nutrients. They're health-promoting choices that you'll be happy to have in the fridge or your pantry. A few of these foods are available by mail order; a few are not widely available. In those cases, I've listed the e-mail or street address so you can contact them if you choose.

The Seven Laws of Nutrition

Mike Adams
See book keywords and concepts
Because over time, once again, you will become accustomed to the taste of superfood powders, and there is something beneficial about actually tasting the foods as they enter your system. It prepares your body to more properly digest those foods. I also think that given the digestive problems some people have, that superfood powders have far greater bioavailability than superfood pills. So they also go to work more quickly in your system, because they don't have to be physically broken down by your stomach. Again, there's nothing wrong with pills.
