superfood

Hey,

I read something from Andreas Moritz about Superfoods, which, as always, sounds really logical to me.

Always I am getting excited about something I finally get in contact with the exact contrary opinion, which is very exhausting to deal with. At the end I never know what to do and whom to follow.

Could you please say something to it?

"I have personally tried and tested many such superfoods on myself and seen the results or lack of them in others. I used one of the best sources of Spirulina for 3 years, before I began my first Liver Cleanses years ago, but couldn't tell whether this made any difference, except that I developed more gigestive problems. I found that some of the grasses (I checked out barely and wheat grass) had an initial postive effect of cleansing, but later on made old symptoms more stronger.

Much of the cleansing action of these products rests on the strong presence of antibodies that are meant to defend the wheat against destruction by insects and microbes. Since these antibodies are toxic also to us, they may trigger a strong immune response that tries to removes them again, along with other undesirable, noxious waste matter. This accounts for much of the positive effects of these products. If taken for a longer period of time, though, the immune system becomes tired, and old symptoms return, sometimes even more pronounced than before. If you take such a product, I would advice you to muscle test it perhaps once every week. If it passes the test, you may continue for another week. But if your muscle tests weak to begin with or at any time, I would not use the product.

I would not let myself fooled by the list of wonderful ingredients. They may be there, or have been prior to production, but this doesn't mean they will end up in your cells. Many of these products have gone through machine processing, which robs them of their life force (Chi). When the nutrients enter the blood and the connective tissue surrounding the cells, they may not be able to enter the cells. The cells don't absorb nutrients that have lost the life force.

So as you can derive from this, I am not enthusiastic about these superfoods, although I recognize that a number of people have been helped by them, or the placebo effect they envoke. Their cleansing properties can be of great value. Everything in nature is useful for something, if it is not overly processed or altered. The ultimate judge is you. Your bodytype plays a major role, too. What helps one type, may not be useful for another, and vice versa."

thanks
