Recipes For Health

Since I've been learning about spirulina and other California super foods I've been trying to find creative ways to add spirulina to my meals. I figured out adding spirulina to smoothies but I want to expand to other natural food recipes.

I also figured there are other super foods that I can add to recipes. For example, chocolate nibs, hemp seed, flax seed and agave necter. I learned about different type of superfoods from Billy's Superfoods and more importantly I found California super food recipes that incorporate several different natural foods.

I like that I can be creative with my meals and still be healthy.

Incorporating Superfoods Into My Diet

On my quest for more healthier natural foods and supplements I started to not only look at healthy supplements I can take but superfoods I can [easily] incorporate into my diet.

Well for some reason I thought this would be hard. I would find all these exotic foods that I wouldn't know what country they came from where to buy them or how to prepare them. Well, I was wrong. Different websites list identical items and some have different foods listed. Here are some of the superfoods I found on various websites:

So I started thinking "I can incorporate these in my diet." In fact, I'm already eating some of these now. There are several that I have not incorporated in my diet such as green foods and vegetables like spinach and kale. I'm trying to envision myself cooking kale and it's not happening. This is where I think I'm going to need supplements to cover the green foods and veggies I'm not getting in my diet on a consistent basis.

So my quest for healthy living continues.

SPIRULINA: AWESOME SUPERFOOD

I was trying to think of what type of supplements I could take when I'm feeling sluggish and I need extra energy but I want to stay healthy. So I started to do some research on superfoods and that's when I started to read about spirulina and other natural foods.

Spirulina is a wonderfully nutritious superfood. Spirulina has the highest concentration of protein of any food (60% protein by weight!). It is the highest source of the B vitamin complex, including B-12. And it is extremely high in chlorophyll and beta carotene. Spirulina beta carotene is ten times more concentrated than carrots.
Spirulina is a rich source of iron.

For my hectic and active lifestyle or if I'm not getting my daily fruits and veggies in my diet, I now take spirulina. Check out Billy-Superfoods to see what all you can pack into a healthy natural foods.
