Nature's Superfoods Help You Heal Faster
Green "superfoods" are superior sources of essential nutrients - nutrients we need but can't make ourselves. While we're adding more salads ad vegetables to our diets, concern for the quality of foods grown on mineral-depleted soils makes green superfoods like chlorella, spirulina, barley and wheat grass popular. hey are nutritionally more potent than regular foods, and wonderful food antio!idants for healthy healing.
Green and blue-green algae (phyto-plankton) are almost perfect superfoods.
hey have rich, high-quality protein, fiber, chlorophyll, vitamins, minerals and en"ymes. hey can be used therapeutically to stimulate immune response, enhance tissue repair, accelerate healing, help prevent degenerative disease and promote longer life. hey are the most potent source of beta carotene available in the world today. hey are the richest plant source of vitamin #-$%. heir amino acids are virtually identical to those needed by the human body. heir protein yield is greater than soy beans, corn or beef. hey are the superior food sources of &'( )an *+( found in high amounts in breast milk, hey are natural deto!ifiers to protect against chemical pollutants and radiation.
hlorella has a h!gher concentrat!on of chlorophyll than any kno"n plant.
-t is a complete protein food, with all the # vitamins, vitamin . and * and many minerals actually high enough to
be considered supplemental amounts. he list of chlorella benefits is long and almost miraculous, from deto!ification to energy enhancement, to immune system restoration through a unique molecular compound called .ontrolled Growth +actor.
.hlorella's cell wall material is especially beneficial for intestinal health, deto!ifying the colon, stimulating peristaltic activity and promoting friendly bacteria. .hlorella eliminates heavy metals like lead, mercury, copper and cadmium. .hlorella is an important source of carotenes in healing tumors. .hlorella strengthens the liver, the body's ma/or deto!ifying organ, so that it can rid the body of infective agents that destroy immune defenses. .hlorella reduces arthritis stiffness. .hlorella normali"ed blood pressure. .hlorella relieves indigestion, hiatal hernia, gastritis and ulcers. .hlorella is effective in weight loss programs. -t cleanses, has rich nutrients that keep energy up during dieting and maintains muscle during lower food intake.
Sp!rul!na !s the or!g!nal green superfood.
-t's an ecological wonder because it grows in both ocean and lake waters and can be cultivated in e!treme environments useless for conventional agriculture. -t grows in such a variety of climates and conditions that some consider it the nutrition answer for whole populations on the brink of starvation. (ma"ingly prolific, spirulina doubles its biomass every %-0 days. #ig business isn't necessary for spirulina. 1mall scale community farms are spirulina's biggest producers. 2esearchers say that spirulina alone could double the protein available to people on a fraction of the world's land, while helping restore the environmental balance of the planet. (cre for acre, spirulina yields %3! more protein than soybeans, 43! more protein than corn, and 433! more protein than beef. -t is a complete protein, with all %% amino acids, the entire #-comple!, including #-$%, carotenes, minerals and essential fatty acids. &igestibility is high, both for immediate and long range energy.
Green grasses are the only plants on earth that can g!#e sole nutr!t!onal support to an an!mal throughout l!fe.
Grasses are some of the planet's lowest-calorie, most nutrient-rich edibles and some of the most underused. Grasses have the e!traordinary ability to transform inanimate elements form soil. water and sunlight into living cells. Grasses contain all the known minerals and trace minerals, balanced vitamins and hundreds of en"ymes. he molecular proteins and chlorophyllins in grasses are absorbed directly through our cell membranes. heir rich chlorophyll helps humans as it does plants, to resist the destructive effects of air pollution, carbon mono!ide, 5-rays and radiation. 1tudies on barley, wheatgrass and alfalfa show effects against a wide range of health problems6 high blood pressure, diabetes, gastritis, ulcers, liver disease, asthma, ec"ema, hemorrhoids, skin infections, anemia, constipation, body odor, bleeding gums, burns even cancer. Good sources of vitamin 7, green grasses are also effective for bone strength.

-t has $$! more calcium than cow's milk, 0! more iron than spinach, and 8! more vitamin . and bioflavonoids than orange /uice. #arley /uice has anti-viral activity, shows results for &9( damage repair and neutrali"es heavy metals like mercury. -t is an ideal antiinflammatory for healing stomach ulcers and hemorrhoids. &r. 7ubota of okyo :harmacy 1cience says, "#arley grass has effects measurably stronger than either steroid or non-steroid drugs, with few if any side effects."
minerals from root depths as great as $;3 feet< (lfalfa's high chlorophyll content and rich plant fiber make it a good spring tonic, infection fighter and natural body deodori"er. -t is a restorative in cases of narcotic and alcohol addiction, a recogni"ed therapy for arthritis, colon and skin disorders, anemia and liver problems. -ts high content of vitamin 7 helps herbalists use alfalfa to encourage blood-clotting. (lfalfa's recogni"ed phytohormones are effective in normali"ing estrogen levels.

(heat grass l!)u!d has curat!#e po"ers for cancer gro"ths, with success as rectal implants in colon cancer cases. -ts ability to
provide protection from carcinogens comes from chlorophyll's capacity to strengthen cells, deto!ify the liver and blood and biochemically neutrali"e pollutants. Wheat grass also normali"es the thyroid gland to stimulate metabolism which may be helpful in correcting obesity problems. +ifteen pounds of fresh wheat grass has the nutritional value of ;03 pound of vegetables with all their en"yme activity
