10 Superfoodsfor
Youth & Vitality
Dr. Perricone
In 2004, Dr. Perricone shared the results of his study and
identified 10 superfoods that literally help to defy the aging
process...
Orovo Superfood #1 Acai Fruit
Acai is considered by many to be one of the most nutritious foods in the
world.
Acai fruit has been found to contain more than 10 times the antioxidants
than red grapes and its fatty acids are rich in monounsaturated oleic acid -- similar to olive oil. This acid helps
omega-3 fish oils work more efficiently within the body.
Orovo Superfood #2 Allium Family
The Alluim Family of foods includes onions, scallions, garlic, leeks,
shallots and chives.
Each of these foods contains high levels of flavonoids that stimulate the
liver to produce powerful antioxidants. Because the liver aids the body in eliminating toxins, these superfoods are essential elements in
any Orovo detox program.
Orovo Superfood #3 Barley
Barley’s power comes from its combination of soluble and insoluble
fiber.
The soluble fiber in barley helps the body metabolize carbohydrates,
cholesterol and fats.
The insoluble fiber keeps the body regular, reducing the risk of digestive
tract cancers like colon cancer.
Omega-3 acids have been linked to lower cholesterol, lower blood pressure and a
lower heart attack risk.
Research has shown that in the body, lignan binds to estrogen receptors. This
means flaxseed may eventually play a big role in the prevention of estrogen-driven
breast cancer and other cancers.
Orovo Superfood #4 Flaxseed
The super green foods in Orovo are barley grass, wheat grass and a blue-
green algae known as BGA.
Green foods contain high levels of chlorophyll, the phytochemical that gives them their dark green color.
Studies have shown that these green foods lower cholesterol and blood
pressure as well as prevent cancer and stimulate the immune system.
Orovo Superfood #5 Green Foods
Barley is a staple food in Eastern Europe and Asia, but is often lacking in
traditional American diets.
Orovo considers buckwheat to be one of the most important superfoods due to
its high mineral content, healthy fats, soluble fiber and flavonoids.
Orovo Superfood #6 Buckwheat
These superfoods contain folic acid, potassium, phytochemicals and
essential fatty acids.
Beans release fiber into the body slowly, helping to maintain blood
sugar levels -- especially beneficial when dieting. In addition to their fiber content, beans are good for the heart because they provide high levels of
potassium, which may help reduce the risk of high blood pressure or stroke.
Orovo Superfood #7 Beans & Lentils
Peppers act as fat burners and contain two times the Vitamin C as
oranges or grapefruit.
The healthy compounds in peppers are called capsaicinoids. The spicier the pepper the more capsaicinoids it contains and the higher the health
benefits. These compounds work to keep the heart healthy and fight
against cancer. They also increase metabolism and aide in weight loss.
Orovo Superfood #8 Hot Peppers
Sprouts have concentrated sources of living enzymes and antioxidants that help
fight the aging process.
Sprouts are an ideal source of Vitamins A, C, E, and K4; and minerals such as
calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and iron.
Research has shown that amino acids contained in alfalfa sprouts help fight
pancreatic, colon and leukemia cancers.
Orovo Superfood #9 Sprouts
The live active cultures found in yogurt & kefir help to prevent intestinal and colon
cancer.
Yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, phosphorous, riboflavin-Vitamin B2 and iodine. It also contains optimal levels of
vitamin B12, zinc, potassium, and protein. Probiotics are also key in any
Orovo detox program because they keep the intestines healthy and working
properly.
