WHY THE 20 BEST SUPERFOODS ARE SO IMPORTANT TO YOUR HEALTH
Your body is the only one you have and we are constantly being bombarded by toxic pollutants in the form of chemicals, additives, radiation, electromagnetic frequencies etc. This takes a serious toll on your physical wellbeing. The result is a body in a chronic state of undernutrition, free radical contamination, out of balance and in a state of decay. The end result is increased risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, intellectual deficiencies and early mortality. When your body's metabolic systems are out of balance and overly acidic it expresses this condition as inflammation, pain, illness, fatigue and disease. When your body is in balance your vibrant, energized, healthy, vigorous, pain free and motivated. Do you know that this generation of children is the first generation in the history of the United States predicted to have a shorter life span than their parents and this rings true for many other countries as well. That is a sad fact but it is something that is completely preventable. It is possible for you to begin to turn back the hands of time to look & feel younger and have less pain, more energy and create homeostasis in your body. I hope you find the information here helpful to you.
Homeostasis is otherwise known as balance and it is the state that your body seeks to achieve at every moment of every day. Like a finely tuned machine. Your body seeks a state of alkalinity (7.4 pH - 7.5 pH) and will continue to breakdown, digress and often fail under this constant strain of high acidity. So take the time to get informed and learn what you need to do to get your body balance and in a state of homestasis with a pH of 7.4-7.6
EFFECTS OF A BODY OUT OF BALANCE
Weight Gain, Nutritional Deficiencies, Allergies, Fatigue, Mood Disorders, Blood Sugar Conditions, Diabetes, Arthritis, Alzheimer's, Infections, Impotence, Fertility Problems, Urinary Tract Infections, Asthma etc.

Greens contain powerful alkaline properties that keep your body in the balanced state reducing acidity. Good health requires the body to be in a proper acid/base balance. Overly acidic bodies are expressed by poor health and disease.
It would be best to get them in combination in a powdered, tablet, or liquid supplement form or blended nutritious shake with other healthy ingredients. Earth's Promise, Greens Plus, Perfect Greens, Pro Greens are just a few of the ones I would recommend.
To achieve optimal maximum performance, take a superfood combination product, such as the ones featured below this post, in the morning or after a workout. I take a blend every day of two or three of the above mixed together with water in the morning or with a shake after my morning workout. You will definitely get a natural boost of energy and vitality when you start using this strategy. If you're really toxic then it will take about three days to one week to get your system cleaned out and during this time you may feel less than perky(or maybe not) because your body is purging the toxins in your system. However, after this brief period then you will feel vibrant, energized and mentally charged with explosive power. Important to note here that you must drink lots of water (six to eight 8oz glasses) as well when getting detoxed from a life of poor eating habits so it can flush you out faster and you will feel better quicker.
Greens Plus Wild Berry Burst 9.4 oz
Amazon Price: $23.95 (as of 12/02/2009)
This is another one of my favorite superfood supplements that I use. It also will provide maximum health benefits, increase energy and vitality.
Garden Of Life Perfect Food Berry , 8.5-Ounce Plastic Jar
Amazon Price: $31.47 (as of 12/02/2009)
I use this and it if one of my personal favorites for maximum health and energy.
CytoSport Muscle Milk Nature's Ultimate Lean Muscle Formula, Chocolate Milk, 2.47-Pound Plastic Jar
Amazon Price: $48.49 (as of 12/02/2009)
This stuff tastes great and comes in convenient single serving packets that you can take with you anywhere. Just toss it in your bottle of water, shake and go.
TWENTY SUPER TIPS TO IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH
Follow These Guidelines
GET POWERED BABY!
* Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, especially organic, when possible
* Eat more whole grains like, wheat, oats, barley, millet, rice, rye, or flax meal.
* Don't eat white bread and products made with it (especially refined flour)
* Eat sprouted grain bread products such as Ezekiel Bread, Manna Bread and whole grain tortillas
* Use a little organic flax seed meal in baking, in blender drinks and sprinkled on salads or cereal
* Eliminate simple sugar, avoid it at all costs. Use raw sweeteners such as raw honey, molasses, and agave nectar but in moderation
* Eat more beneficial fats like oils - olive oil, flaxseed oil, safflower, canola, sunflower, and avocado oil that are high in mono-saturated fats and Omega fatty acids
* Eat nuts especially almonds and walnuts - high in healthy fats and antioxidants
* Eat berries like blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, dried cranberries and goji berries
* Occasionally have a little dark chocolate without milkfat in it. Read the labels
* Eat wild caught fish - especially oily fish 2 times per week
* Avoid processed foods and those chemically altered
* Reduce or eliminate fast food
* Don't fall for the salad trap at fast food restaurants as most contain higher calories & fat combined with the high fructose corn syrup dressings. Get plain salads without the extra toppings of noodles, croutons, etc. Use a little oil and lemon
* Drink tea without milk. It contains EGCG a powerful potent antioxidant
* Drink loose leaf green tea. Very high in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds and is a widely respected cancer-tumor fighter
* Green and white teas contain the highest levels. Only select tea's without "natural flavoring" added. Try to get loose teas without any added ingredients except the teas, herbs and fruits. Make extra and place in glass container in fridge for readily available quantities
* Eat seasonal fruits and vegetables meaning that you eat what is in season
* The more color the better: green, red, yellow, orange, purple etc.
* Eat less meat (animal protein)
* Eliminate microwaveable food from your diet.

- Great a lot of my favorites made the list. I wonder if my broccoli counts when I cover it in cheese sauce? Of course it does still taste great with just some garlic and olive oil or in a salad too.
