FROM THE LAND: Organic wheat, barley and alfalfa grasses
It’s a trio of pure cereal grasses, each with its own nutritional talents. They provide a multinutritional boost. And they’re more than qualified. Organically grown in rich volcanic soil – and because they’re farm-grown, not tray-grown, they can lay down deep roots and absorb more nutrients. Alfalfa grass in particular. It lays down the deepest roots of any plant or vegetable and deeper roots mean even more nutrients.
Parsley
The Europeans have included parsley in their world-famous Commission E monographs…. That something to be said. It contains so many ingredients that have so many healthful effects on our system – too many to describe – we’ll just focus on a few: Besides containing carotene, vitamins B1, B2, C and K, it is a potent anti-oxidant and helps detox.
Spinach
Spinach is an extremely rich source of antioxidants and a rich source of vitamin A, C, E, K,iron, folic acid, magnesium and nitrates. It is thought to play a role in regulating blood sugar levels and early research suggests that compounds in spinach may slow ageing of the nervous system!
FROM THE OCEAN: 7 organic or wild-harvested sea vegetables
Sea vegetables provide 10 to 20 times more vitamins and minerals than land vegetables. That’s good news. Particularly when it comes to iodine, a vital mineral for the healthy functioning of glands like the pituitary, adrenals and thyroid.
You say sea vegetables. I say seaweeds. Let’s call the whole thing off. But only after we’ve noted that no family of foods offers more protection against radiation and environmental toxins than these sea greens.

Organic rockweed
Organic dulse
Organic bladderwrack
Organic sea lettuce
Organic laver
Wild-harvested nori
FROM FRESH WATER: Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Spirulina platensis algae
Chlorella is a nutritious little microalga. It’s made of 60% easily assimilated protein and other lovely stuff like nucleic acids, essential fatty acids and the antioxidant beta-carotene. Plus it’s nature’s richest source of the antioxidant chlorophyll.
Chlorella helps clear out bad stuff. It’s already considered a heavy hitter in heavy-metal detox. Plus this antioxidant-rich alga has immune-strengthening, infection-fighting properties that help clear viruses, bacteria and other micro-baddies.
FACT: Chlorella contains two to three times more chlorophyll than any other food. CHLOR-ella!
Spirulina, is a microscopic, filamentous blue – green microalga that has a long history of use as food, extending as far back as 400 years ago. The food interest in Spirulina is focused mainly on its rich content of 1) protein; 60-70% protein by weight, 2) vitamins; especially vitamin B12 and beta-carotene, 3) essential minerals; especially iron and 4) essential fatty acids; it is one of the few sources of dietary gamma linoleic acid. Spirulina also contains all eight essential and nine non-essential amino acids and numerous phytochemicals which have a host of potential health benefits.
