Why Pro Soarce? How about five of the the most powerful superfoods known to man!
Açaí
Açaí (ah-sigh-EE), known as "The Wine of the Amazon," is a Brazilian Rainforest "super berry" and is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods in the world. Some of the benefits attributed to Açaí include:
- Greater energy and stamina.
- Improved mental focus.
- Better sleep.
- Improved digestion.
- Improved sexual function.
- Boosts your immune system.
The Açaí berry has been hailed as the "Number 1 Superfood in the World" and is harvested from the depths of the rain forests of Brazil by the people who have been using it for thousands of years. Açaí is the only super berry on the market that has everything that you need, naturally from only the berry itself. It packs Vitamin B1, B2, B3, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Phosphorus, Calcium, Potassium, Fiber, Proteins, good fatty acids such as Omega 6 and Omega 9.
As an added benefit Açaí gives you the highest level of antioxidant on the market, with studies showing up to 33 times the antioxidant found in red wine grapes. With Açaí it gives you the energy from your youth and opens up the vitality and increased stamina you had in your 20's. So try the new "Fountain of Youth" from this incredible Amazon berry.
Besides being considered one of the "richest foods in Iron" the Açaí is also rich in fiber which makes it strongly recommended for the elderly and for people with digestive problems. For its microbiological characteristics, Açaí is considered one of the most nutritive foods in the Amazon, and perhaps in the world.
Goji
The Goji berry, a sweet red fruit native to the Himalayan mountain region, serves as both a botanical medicine and a food. It has been used as a medicinal food for thousands of years, and has been studied extensively in modern times to substantiate its health benefits. With over 15% protein, 21 essential minerals, and 18 amino acids, as well as lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP), the Goji berry is a nutrient-dense superfood in a class all its own. Some of the benefits attributed to Goji include:
- Strengthens the immune system.
- Helps protect the liver.
- Builds strong blood and promotes cardiovascular health.
- Supports eye health and improves vision.
- Helps maintain healthy blood pressure and blood sugar.
- Supports normal kidney function.
Perhaps the most important nutrient in Goji berries though is its polysaccharides, most notably the lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP). Studies show that LBP polysaccharides are exceptional sources of the essential cell sugars necessary for proper immune function and intercellular communication. LBP also contains lutien and zeaxanthin, which are beneficial to visual acuity. Goji berries are an abundant source of nutrients that can provide retina protection, and are thus particularly recommended for diabetic patients.
The Goji berry is also widely used to reduce the craving for sugar. It is especially useful for hypoglycemic people and for hyperactive children. In Asia, it has been traditionally regarded as a longevity, strength-building, and sexual potency food of the highest order, widely believed to improve sexual function and enhance fertility.
Mangosteen
The Mangosteen fruit is one of the most praised tropical fruits of Southeast Asia and has been nicknamed the "Queen of Fruits" for its various medicinal uses. Traditionally utilized to control pain, fever and to ward off infections of every kind, to protect against disease, increase energy, and as a natural anti-inflammatory, the Mangosteen fruit has been used and revered for thousands of years.
In addition to being rich in vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, B1, B2, B6, potassium, iron, and calcium, the Mangosteen is beneficial to the body because of a substance found in the fruit called xanthones. Xanthones are biologically active plant phenols structurally similar to flavonoids that possess antioxidant properties to help seek out and destroy roaming free radicals that can wreak havoc on good health.
While most people know about the antioxidant benefits of Vitamins C and E, far fewer are aware of the incredibly potent antioxidant power of xanthones. Xanthones are natural chemical substances that have recently won high praise from numerous scientists and researchers. Xanthones have been studied for their medicinal potential, since they demonstrate a number of pharmaceutical properties, including:
- Supports microbiological balance.
- Maintains immune system health.
- Promotes joint flexibility.
- Provides positive mental support.
According to research reported in professional journals such as the Journal of Pharmacology, these amazing xanthones have a remarkably beneficial effect on cardiovascular health. Xanthones are among the most powerful antioxidants to be found in nature, and what's remarkable is that Mangosteen represents the single greatest known supply of these tremendously beneficial substances.
Green Tea
Most of us are by now familiar with the many reported health benefits of consuming green tea. In fact, few botanicals have been as extensively studied for their cardiovascular and antioxidant/protective benefits. Here’s something that might be news: In laboratory antioxidant tests, green tea has been shown to have one of the highest ORAC values (a measure of antioxidant potency developed by researchers at the US Department of Agriculture) of any natural product.
Yerba Maté
Yerba Maté (mah-TAY) is a South American herb that has won many admirers in wide-ranging parts of the world. In the search for a natural stimulant devoid of side effects and toxicity, Maté currently holds the most hope. While eliminating fatigue, Yerba Maté stimulates mental and physical activity and has a beneficial effect on nerves and muscles.
Yerba Maté's stimulant action lasts longer than that of caffeine and does not have side effects such as insomnia and irritability. Yerba Maté also contains polyphenols and saponins, a group of phytochemicals that act as powerful antioxidants . Saponins are phytochemicals that have been found to specifically stimulate the immune system and aid the body in protecting against disease.
