What are super green foods and why do I need them?
Super green foods are derived from young cereal grasses such as wheat, barley, rye, oats and alfalfa, as well as spirulina, chlorella, kelp, dulse and other sea vegetables. Perhaps the most nutrient-dense foods on earth, these grasses are richer in nutrients than spinach, broccoli, eggs and chicken in virtually all categories including protein, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese, vitamin C, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folic acid, vitamin B12, carotenoids, and vitamin E.
Super green foods are the only foods in the vegetable kingdom that enable animals to continually maintain their weight, strength, and optimal health even if consumed alone. They abound in unidentified growth factors, powerful antioxidants, immune boosters, and many other health-enhancing nutrients.
What are the effects of not eating enough vegetables?
Surprisingly, malnutrition can occur even if your body is only deficient in a single vitamin. Malnutrition means you're not getting enough nutrients as a result of an inadequate or unbalanced diet, or because of digestive or absorption difficulties. Symptoms of malnutrition include lack of energy, irritability, a weakened immune system leading to frequent colds or allergies, and mineral depletion that can trigger a variety of health concerns including anemia.
