About Sun Chlorella

What is Superfood?

A superfood is a phytonutrient-rich whole food that is beneficial to health and well-being. Many food manufacturers have made the superfood claim over the years, but the list of actual authentic superfoods is much shorter than you might think.

While many foods provide vital nutrients, vitamins and minerals, there are a number of important foods whose benefits go far beyond simple nutrition.

These superfoods -- if only for their low cost and ready availability to nutrients ratio -- should form the basis of any healthy lifestyle.

Top Nutritious Superfoods

Acai Berry This berry is thought to have a significant impact on heart health, and on the health of the cardiovascular system.         Apples Apples are loaded with phytochemicals like quercetin, which may help prevent Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.         Blueberries Blueberries are rich in powerful antioxidants called anthocyanins (which are responsible for the blue color). Anthocyanins help to protect against heart disease, cancer, cataracts and glaucoma. Blueberries are also rich in other protective antioxidants as well as vitamin C, manganese and fiber.         Sun Chlorella The mother of all superfoods, Sun Chlorella has a higher concentration of nutrients than any of the other top superfoods and provides  many of their combined benefits into one whole food supplement.         Goji Berries These shriveled red berries that look like red raisins are rich in antioxidants, particularly carotenoids such as beta-carotene and zeaxanthin.         Lentils Because they contain so many disease-fighting phytochemicals, research has shown that lentils may help protect against heart disease, cancer, infections and osteoporosis.         Pomegranates Also rich in antioxidants, one of pomegranates major benefits is to lower cholesterol.         Spirulina Maintains healthy levels of cholesterol and improve the balance of good and bad cholesterol and supports an overall good cardiovascular function.
