Free Cookie Recipe below! Stealth health food
Dear Health Conscious Friend: What if I told you that this "ultimate superfood" has been sitting right under our noses for over 500 years... And totally ignored until just recently! It's a grain you never heard of, yet the ancient Aztecs of Mexico prized it more highly than gold. They fed it to their athletes, used it as medicine, even offered it up to their gods and... They believed that this grain
gave them And maybe it did, in a manner of speaking. (As you'll see below!) Yet, when the Spanish Conquistadors looted and ruined the ancient Aztec Empire, this nutritional treasure all but vanished with it. The Spaniards named the grain Salvia Hispanica L and then it was promptly forgotten. Well, so far it's just a colorful Aztec legend, right? But everything suddenly changed when... 500 years later, researchers And when the first results came in, they nearly fell over. They noticed that Salvia Hispanica L came in two colors black and white. The black ones proved unremarkable. But the white ones tested off the charts!
So they bred a strain of purely white grains, tested them again and the results clearly showed they had found a nutritional goldmine. They renamed this super grain Salba. And just for starters, it turns out to be... A rich, dense SUPER-SOURCE of Omega 3s... Plus, each tiny granule, gram for gram, contains more fiber than flaxseed, more protein than soy, more calcium than whole milk, 15 times more magnesium than broccoli and it can be mixed into practically all of your favorite foods! More later about how easy it is to use and cook with. But first, let me explain exactly why this stealth health food truly turns out to be "the food of the gods". You see, Salba is so nutritionally dense that just two tablespoons a day could help you Super charge your heart health... You've probably heard a lot lately about Omega 3 fatty acids. I recommend it to my own patients, and even the American Heart Association agrees that Omega 3s can help:
Maybe you knew all that, but until recently, nobody knew that... Salba is among the richest sources of Omega 3 fatty acids of any whole food in the history of nutrition! In fact, gram for gram, these little granules contain 8 times more Omega 3 fatty acids than the equivalent weight of fresh Atlantic salmon. Mind you, I'm not saying "stop eating salmon." Salmon contains different kinds of Omega 3, including high amounts of DHA and EPA...while Salba's Omega 3s are mainly in the form of alpha linolenic acid. And it's best to have all of these forms. But Salba's heart health benefits don't stop there... Be! cause your heart and arteries also need plenty of magnesium. And many people, my patients included, don't get enough magnesium in their daily diet. Yet, here's where Salba comes to the rescue again. Gram for gram, Salba has 15 times more magnesium than broccoli! Dial down your digestive distresses...
I bet your doctor's told you "Get more fiber in your diet." And I'm here to tell you that he's absolutely correct. The right kind of fiber can help you solve a huge array of digestive distresses, including:
Great, but there's one major catch. Most high fiber supplements taste like sawdust so even my own patients often give up on them. Salba is a good source of fiber Just a little bit each day goes a long, long way and makes your morning cereal, shake or smoothie even more delicious! (As you'll see, you can even bake yummy cookies with it.) Give your bones a big boost... You've heard it a million times: you need calcium to build strong bones. And the very best way to get it is in calcium rich foods. Yet according to The National Dairy Council, only 25% of us are getting the recommended amount of calcium in our diets. Gram for gram, Salba has 6 times more calcium than milk Muscle up! Ever notice how, as we get older, we tend to lose muscle mass and tone? Even if you're exercising, your aging muscles won't stand a chance unless you power them up with plenty of protein every day. And here lies a problem, because many protein sources harbor health risks of their own. Personally, I try not to eat too much red meat...and the jury is still out on how much soy is too much. Yet again, the solution is simple. Salba! Not only does Salba contain more protein than soy it's higher quality protein. You see, the protein in Salba contains all the essential amino acids your body needs. It's efficiently digeste! d and it's not processed with chemicals (like many soy products are . Plus, Salba will help you.... Flush out those nasty free radicals...
I call them "nasty" because free radicals are like little terrorists, threatening your cells. These unstable oxygen molecules are created when your cells burn fuel. Your body is swarming with them and they're one of the biggest culprits in the aging process. Well the good news is that you can "clean out" these free radicals with compounds called antioxidants. And maybe you've heard that blueberries are a rich source of antioxidants. They are. But did you know... Gram for gram, Salba has three times the antioxidant capacity of fresh blueberries! So maybe you're starting to see how... Salba simply blows away other "superfoods"! Why? Well one reason is that Salba is so nutritionally dense. Unlike fruit, berries and vegetables, which are mostly air and water...each grain of Salba is like a "neutron star" of nutritional goodies, packed with millions of miracle molecules. So many that you need just 2 tablespoons a day. PLUS: Salba like other foods that are rich in fiber expands in the stomach. Result? It makes you feel fuller longer. That's fantastic news for dieters. If you've been trying to lose weight, Salba could be your new best friend! And it's so easy to add to your meals... Personally, I like to stir Salba into my morning oatmeal. It just disappears you never know it's there. But that's just the start of all you can do with this superfood. As you'll discover, you can:
And if you grind it in your coffee grinder, it's a fabulous thickener for soups, stews and sauces! You can even use it as a crispy coating for oven fried chicken! It all works like a charm because Salba has a neutral flavor that seamlessly blends in with other ingredients. Plus, you can stock your pantry without worry of Salba spoiling. In its whole seed form, Salba has a 5 year shelf life, without any need for artificial preservatives. Just try the recipe on this page tonight and I bet you too will be hooked...
