Super Foods for a Super Healthy You – An Ideal Christmas Gift

There’s a hidden sickness at large in Britain today that is afflicting over 3 million of us and which is causing our bodies to deteriorate at a much faster rate than Nature ever intended…

…And it’s getting worse year on year.

It’s a problem that affects the young and the old alike and makes no distinction between the rich or the poor… and yet it receives NO publicity and NO government awareness campaigns with high profile celebrities.

Diagnosis rates in hospitals for this sickness have soared 44 per cent over the past 5 years, and yet the shocking truth is that most of us are walking around not even aware that we’re affected… until later on in life when it begins to manifest itself in a string of chronic and degenerative health problems – ranging from Alzheimer’s, arthritis, heart disease and even cancer.

But by then it’s too late to do anything about it…

The third world ‘plague’ that goes undetected in 3 out of 4 sufferers in Britain…
So, what is this insidious, invisible epidemic that’s sweeping the nation?

Malnutrition.  Yep, you read it right. 3 million of us are suffering from malnutrition. For most of us that means that our bodies are starved of the essential vitamins and nutrients that fuel our ‘engines’ and all our moving parts.

“But how can this be when there is so much food available to us? Surely the problem is that we’re eating TOO MUCH food? After all, aren’t we going through an obesity epidemic?”

This is exactly right – which makes the situation all the more serious. Not only are we MALNOURISHED, but 75 per cent of the population is clinically OBESE… and that’s a double-whammy time bomb just waiting to explode.

We’re literally eating ourselves sick with the WRONG kind of food which is high in additives, salt, sugar and trans-fats – and low in the essential nutrients that are essential for the body to function properly.

And we’ve been doing so for the last 50 years at least – which means that a whole generation has grown up not knowing any better!

We are all bombarded with adverts for so-called healthy food products, but how many of us read what’s on the label or ever think to question the claims?  How many of us actually know whether these products are delivering any nutritional value whatsoever?

For example, every day we’re told that eating cereal products will lower our cholesterol and prevent heart disease – but how many of us realise that these products are crammed with high levels of salt and sugar and contain virtually no nutrients whatsoever?

One fact alone was enough to make me avoid margarine for life and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance). Margarine is just ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC….

Why not try this for yourself: purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area.

Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things: no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something) …

It does not rot or smell differently.. because it has no nutritional value, nothing will grow on it…even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not find a home to grow.

Why? Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?

Are you running on empty – without even knowing it?

Malnourishment costs the NHS £7.3 billion per year and it is now recognized not only as a major problem amongst the sick, elderly and frail, but new Government statistics produced by the Department of Health show that it’s also seriously affecting newborn babies, schoolkids and adults, who believe themselves to be healthy.

The problem stems from the fact that:

• In Britain we spend 90 per cent of our food budget on processed foods.
• We’re eating less home-cooked food and more convenience food.
• We’re eating more takeaways than ever before
• We’re eating later in the day which means we don’t digest our food properly
• We skip meals or grab a sandwich on the run

. . . and that’s just storing up trouble for the future.

The problem is that even if you THINK you’re eating a healthy diet, your body may still be deficient in vital vitamins or minerals that, if allowed to go uncorrected over months, years even decades, can lead to a whole host of degenerative heath problems.

But if you’re in any doubt – any doubt whatsoever – then this might just be the book that helps you re-write the story of the rest of your life . . .

‘Super Foods for a Super Healthy You’ is a brand new 267-page book combining cutting edge research from some of the world’s leading nutritional experts, that will show you:

• How making a few simple, low-cost adjustments to the way you eat can add decades to your life, perform miracles on your health and mean that you can easily live to the ripe old age of 90 – and beyond! – vibrantly and disease free

• How you can wipe away or ease conditions that your doctor’s medicines are currently failing to cure

• How to create a buzzing shield of super-health throughout your body to protect every cell, organ, muscle and bone from disease and ill health

• How to slow the ageing process to a virtual standstill

Treating everything from depression and bone density loss to wrinkles, diabetes and cardiovascular health
Since reading the book that I hope you too will very soon be incorporating into your daily life, I will never look at a ‘humble’ avocado or blueberry in the same way again and each now feature daily and dramatically in my life.

I am now also including foods like pomegranates, ashitaba, pumpkin, shitake mushrooms, watercress and Ume as religiously in my life as if they were a life-enhancing, life-saving elixir!

Because guess what? They are!

Used in the right way (and this is the secret to this book), a carefully planned ‘nutridelicious’ selection of foods and menus can ward off almost any disease out there and keep you healthy and vibrant to a ripe old age. (Interestingly enough, some fruits and vegetables are actually MORE nutritious when they’re very ripe!)

Because it’s not what you’ve read about nutrition that counts but what you actually DO with that information.

Here’s just a few startling facts for you:

• Avocados, for example, are a powerful Super Food renowned for their cholesterol-lowering properties and ability to maintain cardiovascular health. What is more, according to the latest research findings from Dr Steven M. D’Ambrosio and his associates at Ohio State University, in the US, it appears that phytochemicals extracted from the popular Haas avocado are able to destroy oral cancer cells as well as prevent pre-cancerous cells from developing into cancer. So how many should you eat and how can you better include them in your diet? See page 18

• Two tablespoons of Salba seeds contain more fibre than a serving of the constipation remedy Metamucil and delivers 3,050mg of omega-3s – that’s the equivalent of more than five flax oil capsules, or ten fish oil capsules. With its high content of chlorogenic and caffeic acid as well, this recently discovered superfood also aids glucose metabolism and weight control among its huge list of other super health-boosting benefits. Read more on page 106

• Eat your bananas! The fact that bananas are an excellent source of vitamin B6 and vitamin C, dietary fibre, manganese and potassium is just the start of what you need to know about them. Potassium, for example, is necessary for maintaining normal blood pressure and heart function so a banana a day can help to prevent high blood pressure and protect against atherosclerosis. More on this on pages 20, 96 & 216

• In addition, research indicates that the potassium found in bananas may do wonders for our bone strength by counteracting the increased urinary calcium loss caused by a high-salt diet. Bananas have also long been recognized for their antacid effects that protect against stomach ulcers and ulcer damage. PLUS, the Tryptophan found in bananas has the additional benefit of being a natural mood enhancer so can help if you suffer from PMT or depression.

• Studies have shown that ashitaba (a green leafy vegetable from Japan with a rapid growth time) “can help improve overall health as well as help treat a number of medical complaints. These include weakened immunity, bacterial or viral infections, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, joint or muscular pain, and Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. It also promotes detoxification of the blood, liver and kidneys.” Pages 58 to 61

• The humble apple is perhaps the greatest Super Food of them all. A compound it contains called procyanidin B-2 has been found to play a key role in inhibiting age-related problems, preventing wrinkles and promoting hair growth. French researchers have found that a flavanoid called phloridzin, which is found only in apples, may protect post-menopausal women from osteoporosis and may also increase bone density. Numerous studies have also shown that eating apples can help prevent many different kinds of cancer, asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure and weight gain!

Packed full of amazing information like this, you have to get hold of a copy of this book to start transforming your diet and your health TODAY.

85% of cancers entirely avoidable

How many of us do not live in fear of illness, decline and early death, wincing at the thought of cancer or heart attacks or coping with Alzheimers?

Then surely adding a banana to our breakfast, an avocado to our Tuesday lunch and a portion of kale and oily fish once a week is a ‘no brainer’ in order to avoid all three.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has revealed that 85 per cent of adult cancers are entirely avoidable and, of these, around half are related to nutritional deficiencies in the Western diet. A recent government report showed how nearly 70,000 premature deaths could be prevented each year by simply improving the UK’s diet.

Another study carried out by Brigham Young University professor Steven Aldana, published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, March, 2005, found that a combination of 30 minutes of cardio exercise a day along with a switch to a healthier diet dropped the participants’ health risks for diabetes, cancer, and heart disease dramatically in just 6 weeks.

And that’s just generally eating well. In this exciting new 267-page book, Super Foods for a Super Healthy You, you will discover how adding the power of individual and specific foods to your diet can also have a dramatic effect on specific elements of your life and your health.

• Worried about the effects that stress may be having on your health? Then try a daily intake of celery which can have a powerful effect on reducing stress hormones. In addition, it acts as a useful diuretic (helping to rid your body of excess fluid), as well as helping to reduce the inflammation associated with conditions like arthritis. Pages 4, 9, 62, 68

• Tart cherries have been found to be beneficial for helping to alleviate gout and other forms of arthritis, including both osteo- and rheumatoid arthritis. What’s more, the latest exciting research findings from the US suggest that adding tart cherries to the diet may lower cholesterol, lead to less fat storage and improve antioxidant defences. Pages 27 to 30

• Discover how a new Super Food from the Amazon provides over 30 times the amount of anthocyanins (potent antioxidants) as red wine and all the beneficial fatty acids of olive oil in one delicious, all-natural package. It also helps fight heart disease, cancer, prostate enlargement and more.

• Suffering depression? A recent review of 11 different studies involving over 15,000 patients conducted by researchers at the University of New York and Hull York Medical Center found a significant link between low folate levels and this life-destroying condition..

• KEEP SAFE FROM SUPERBUGS. While the superbug MRSA remains unresponsive to antibiotics and other forms of topical treatment, Manuka honey has been found to be effective against this and other deadly infections.

• Eating oily fish as little as once a week could lower your risk of Alzheimer’s by a staggering 60 per cent. Fish oils have also been found to lower blood pressure, prevent blood platelets from clumping and dramatically lower blood fat levels (Am. J. Clin. Nutr. 65:1645(S)-54(S), 1997; Am. J. Clin. Nutr. 72: 389-94, 2000). Fish oils and flaxseed oil have also been linked with a significantly lower incidence of breast cancer among many other benefits.

• If you are type 1 diabetic then adding pumpkin to your diet could help regulate your blood sugar levels, promote the regeneration of damaged pancreatic cells and boost levels of insulin-producing beta cells and insulin in the blood.

This is not just eating better…

This is a “Power Eating” regime that will both transform your health AND make your cuisine so much more exciting and energising
There is no crime in eating for pleasure. But this is something our society knows how to do only too well.

Right now, if you want to look amazing, feel amazing and live to a glorious old age, then you also need to learn exactly what to eat EACH AND EVERY DAY to create a super-healthy, super-energised, Super You. As religiously as if your life depended on it…

Sure, you’ve probably read already that foods like blueberries, mackerel, oats and pomegranates are great Super Foods for your health. But what this new book does goes far beyond that – to a level of ‘Power Eating’ that will supercharge every inch of your health.

Rather than just give you a list of foods you should eat, it provides a permanent and solid ‘food Bible’ in your home at all times that enables you to eat exactly what you need for your specific conditions and genetic or lifestyle weaknesses on Monday lunch, Wednesday breakfast and Friday’s mid-morning snack!

It also provides you with a huge selection of recipes and lifestyle suggestions that ensure you actually apply the vital information on a daily, ongoing and permanent basis. With all the practical and moral support you need to really stick to it.

ONE FRUIT that helps protect you from cancer, heart disease, age-related brain damage and much more
On page 26 of Super Foods for a Super Healthy You, for example, you’ll discover a recipe for healthy blueberry muffins that’s easy to cook, amazing for your health and will fill your whole house with the life-enhancing smell of baking.

Why blueberries? Because, as the book says…  “With a one-in-three chance of developing cancer in your lifetime, a one-in-two chance of suffering from coronary heart disease and a high probability you will suffer some form of age-related brain damage, you are naturally committed to taking an active role in your own health. And there is a simple fruit that can help you fight, not one, but all three of these modern scourges – and tackle other problems such as cystitis, poor memory and poor liver function too!”

You’ll also discover why the other ingredients in these muffins could be so vital to your health and daily levels of vitality.

You probably know dozens of great recipes for tasty food -

But how about dozens of tasty recipes
that could SAVE YOUR LIFE?
One of my favourite aspects of this book is the long list of ’15 Minute Recipes’ it has for when you’re in a hurry.

This means that being in a rush is no longer an excuse to eat junk snacks!

I also love the fact that there’s a section of both winter and summer recipes and also recipes for entertaining.  Because it’s only with this level of very specific nutritional support that you can fill your diet with all the Power Eating punch your Super Health needs.

Imagine, for example, that you’re about to set out for the supermarket or food shop. Simply turn to the ’15 Minute Recipes’ section and choose a couple of recipes and write down the ingredients before you go and you’ll automatically be doing wonders for your health.

Imagine how good you’ll feel – and what an instant improvement you’ll have brought about to your health – after eating just these five dishes:

• Grilled salmon fillets with a herb yoghurt sauce. Aside from the ENORMOUS list of health benefits from oily fish given above, this delicious healthy dish also gives your digestive and immune systems a big boost with the yoghurt and parsley dressing.

• Mushroom and miso soup. Believed to be responsible for the far lower incidence of breast cancer in Japan, the intense nutrient kick in Miso is also a great immune system booster, bone strengthener and is a great energy and vitality food. The right type of mushrooms have been shown to boost heart health, lower the risk of cancer, promote immune function, ward off viruses, bacteria, and fungus, reduce inflammation, combat allergies and help balance blood sugar levels!

• Quick and delicious banana and cinnamon smoothie. Apart from the amazing benefits of bananas that I ranted about above, the cinnamon in this simple and delicious treat has been found to be shockingly effective in treating diabetes. (Oh, and there’s also the live yoghurt and honey from your list of Super Foods too!)

• Fresh fennel and walnut salad. Fennel itself has a huge list of beneficial properties… it helps alleviate inflammation, relieves pain, fights infection, enhances memory and promotes weight loss! Walnuts can improve artery function and heart health and may be more important than olive oil!

• Cod in tomato and basil sauce. Not only are you getting your life-preserving quota of fish with this dish but you’re also getting another double whammy of tomatoes and basil. In the extensive study carried out by The Catalan Institute of Oncology in Spain, a high intake of tomatoes was associated with the greatest reduction in the risk of death from cancer to name but one. The beta-carotene found in basil may help to lessen the progression of a wide range of conditions including asthma, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Stop digging yourself a grave with your knife and fork
With so many cookery shows gracing our TV screens and supermarkets competing to entertain our taste buds, it’s no wonder that most of us choose the meals we eat primarily for pleasure.

Despite the fact that we KNOW that the right nutrition-rich diet can help protect us from most of the deadliest, debilitating and depressing illnesses, we persist on making decisions about every meal we eat based on the ease of preparing or procuring it and how good it will taste.

We are, quite literally, digging ourselves an early grave with our knives and forks. But this life-changing book, ‘Super Foods for a Super Healthy You’, can help you change that forever.

This book will help ensure you incorporate the pomegranates you need to reduce inflammation, fight tumour formation, boost heart health, and protect your vision. It will help ensure you eat enough cell-preserving vitamins, age-defying minerals and mind-preserving fats. And it will ensure you eat the foods that could save you from the shock and heartache of developing cancer.

The day the disease strikes will be a day too late to start…
A large percentage of the people who suffer from heart problems, cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and other conditions could have remained in perfect health if only they’d eaten a better diet.

But it’s not just about preventing or curing illness. It’s about feeling GREAT as well.

By simply following the advice and extensive recipe ideas given in this book, you can very quickly go from feeling sluggish and tired to buzzing with energy and vitality.

When you get hold of your own 267-page copy of ‘Super Foods for a Super Healthy You’, be sure to read about the incredible Asian plum called Ume.
