“To keep the body in good health is a duty...otherwise we shall not be able to
keep our mind strong and clear.”

Monthly Super Food
Chlorella

Super food of super foods!
Everyone has to eat and hopefully you want to get the most nutrition out of the foods that go into your body. If we eat to nourish our bodies we can prevent many of our health problems. Our bodies have the ability to cure themselves in many instances but it just takes educating yourself on what is harmful to your body and what actually is beneficial.
Americans put more “fake” food in their bodies and call it food than any other nation. Why did food become something that was made by scientists in a lab? If we just stick to food as it was intended to be eaten we would feel great, have more energy, find the optimum weight for ourselves, lower blood pressure, cholesterol and see an overall positive mood change.
One super food or “next level” food that can do your body “great”, is chlorella.
Chlorella is green algae that are capable of reproducing itself 4 times in 24 hours; it is the fastest growing plant on earth.
It’s 65% protein and remains alkaline (unlike acid forming meat protein) so it speeds recovery from wear and tear and after exercise.
Chlorella is a complete food containing not only a high amount of protein, but essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. It also contains B12 which is difficult for many vegetarians to get enough of.
It provides 19 amino acids  (needed for growth and development of tissues brain development, immune system, and aids the body in many ways) among the ones chlorella contains are all the essential ones, meaning they must be obtained by diet, therefore Chlorella is a complete protein.
It can help rid the body of toxins, and helps reduce stress on our bodies from environmental pollutants, as well as aiding the body’s immune system.
This is one super food!
Now, where do you get it and how do you take it?
Whole Foods and Wild Oats are your best options for finding it.
Or email me for on line suggestions.
It comes in a powder form (http://www.chloressence.com/index.htm) that you can add to smoothies (1/2- 1 Tsp per serving)
Or, you can get a tablet/capsule form that you would take daily, however, note that chlorella is a food not a vitamin supplement.
To your health!
