Vitamins, Minerals and Your Health

We won’t give you the percentage of people who don’t eat enough vegetables to satisfy the body’s nutritional requirements or for that matter, tell you how many servings of spinach or broccoli you need to eat to get enough fiber.

The news is out, we simply do not supply our bodies with what they need to prevent disease and continue to function properly.

Are you protecting your body from the damage of free radicals? Free radicals have been known to cause over 60 different diseases including cancer and arthritis.

Is your body getting the daily amount of vitamins and minerals it needs? Even if you take vitamins everyday you may not be getting what your body really needs from them. If you ever feel tired, sluggish or experience irregularity, chances are you should change your method of vitamins.

SuperFood

Many natural healthcare practioners are recommending their patients use ’superfood.’ This is an excellent way to get all the vegetables, vitamins and minerals our bodies need. Packed with nutrition, they are easy to drink with your morning juice.

Because health food stores have so many different products available, it can be somewhat overwhelming to decide on which product to buy when first starting out. Look for products that have only vegetables and herbs for ingredients. You should be able to pronounce each ingredient. Garden of Life has a superfood blend that is Maker’s Diet Approved, a holistic approach to health.

Often times, super blue green algaes in a crystal form can offer you the best nutritional benefit if they are coming from the Klamath Lake region. These can be found in natural food stores and online. Sea vegetables are also available and are loaded with nutritional content.

Get More out of Juice

If you don’t have a juicer, consider getting one. Although it may take a few extra minutes in the morning, the health benefits are priceless. Pastuerized juices just don’t have the nutritional value we think they do. Because they are heated to a boiling point, most of the vitamins are cooked out of them, leaving us with a sweet drink and not much else. Check online for new juicers at discount prices. Before making a decision, read reviews if available or check with friends that already make their own juice.
