Not all foods are created equal. While it is true that the more a food is processed the less nutritional value it will contain, the opposite side of the spectrum brings us to Super Foods. It is Super Foods that have an abundance of nutritional value or specific nutrients that are found to be important to your health.
For thousands of years human beings have known that food heals. What you eat is what you become. It is only recently that the notion was born that health could be found in a pill. While nutritional supplements can be extremely beneficial, enriching your diet with the right kinds of whole foods can be paramount.
Please consult with your health care provider first if you have any concerns or questions when adding Super Foods to your your diet. |

Food Matters
DVD
How important is the food that you eat? Some have said that 1/4 of what you eat keeps you alive and the other 3/4 keeps your doctor in business.
This provocative movie explores the idea that food itself will make you healthy or sick. The mass media campaign over the last fifty-years has brain-washed many into believing that they can continue to eat toxic food and it will not matter. This wonderful dvd will set the record straight. Food does matter and the quality of the food that you are consuming can make all the difference.
Many "incurable diseases" can be cured by eating the right kinds of foods. Health does not necessarily come in the form of a pill. Healthy, organic and nutritious food is some of the best medicine that you could ever take.
