How do I get extra protein in my diet?

I've been dealing with anemia and lack of energy lately and have been researching how to get more iron and protein in my diet. I've been incorporating more food items that are high in iron such as spinach and chard. However, protein is challenging as I don't eat a lot of meat.

So I googled protein and superfoods. I googled superfoods because I really want to make sure I include protein that's natural and if possible organic. My results came up several time with California grown blue-green algae & California spirulina. Blue-green algae are superfoods that are considered the cutting-edge of today’s nutrition. California spirulina is the highest concentration of protein of any food(60% protein by weight!).

But what's with the emphasis on California. Well it began to make sense to me as I researched natural foods. Sunny weather, opportunities for year long outdoor exercising, an abundance of organically grown produce, and a strong emphasis on healthy living and natural foods. That is the California lifestyle. Amongst other things.

So it makes sense to have supplements that helps with adding protein to my diet. It helps, as I try to add foods to my diet, to have superfood supplements that can give me the extra nutrients I need. California blue green algae is that superfood with that extra kick I need in my everyday diet.

Meditation & California Spirulina


Meditation and healthy eating go hand in hand. Inner peace and balance are often obtained with mediation. Inner peace and balance are also obtained by maintaining a healthy natural diet.

Because of my busy lifestyle I find I run out of energy at times. Getting that extra pick-me-up has become important. More importantly I want to find a natural rejuvenator so that I can continue to maintain a natural lifestyle. The answer for my health needs has been to use a prescription of intense mediation and California grown spirulina.

Spirulina provides me with a wide range of phytonutrients and all the key antioxidants my body needs. Meditation helps balance my mind and body.

Overall, meditation has brought me calm to an otherwise hectic lifestyle and California spirulina has brought me internal healing .

California superfoods


As we try to find new ways to stay healthy by exercising and eating right we continue to try new fads, ideas, videos, and often bizarre diets. Sometimes it helps to go back to the basics.

Introducing California grown superfoods into my diet has been great and believe it or not a simple way to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I can see why a lot of people envy the California lifestyle. California superfoods have helped me to be more active, and engaging with the natural environment. A combination of fresh outdoor activities, exercise and healthy natural foods is all I need.

Superfoods that I continue to make sure I incorporate in my diet include:

Avocados
Spinach
Blueberries
California walnuts
Soy
Salmon

California superfoods are foods that I may not get in my diet on a daily basis. Incorporating superfoods into my diet daily is still a work in progress. But I'm learning that with more research that superfoods have all important benefits with life-long effects.

Incorporating California superfoods has been the best thing I ever done for my body and soul.
