Brain / Body Nutrients
29 May 2012At the same time, we have been watching people’s minds slip down the slippery slope towards memory loss, depression, negativity, Alzheimer’s, and dementia. This is occurring among the younger population in ever growing numbers. By the time the average individual is in their forties, they are complaining about melancholia and “senior moments”. One does not have to wait to middle age to observe the brain drain that is occurring; there are millions of children world-wide who are now marked with new diseases such as attention deficit disorder. Of course, they are given chemical prescriptions that suppress the symptoms and create an on-going need for psychiatric medicine.
During all of this degenerative activity there have been positive findings in the fields of brain research, nutrition, and biochemistry. Over the last 20 years we have been sitting impotent and at best, offering partial answers to replacing harmful substances with health-building food/supplements. A body of evidence began to surface on the effects that fatty acids and certain berries have on brain function. Our dilemma was that when consuming the wrong fats and oils they reduce oxygen levels in the blood stream which help to precipitate disease. On the matter of berries, their high sugar content did not lend themselves to those participating in the Hippocrates Living food Program since all forms of sugar feed every type of disease. Approximately 3 years ago we discovered companies were harvesting and extracting the seeds from berries and hemp for its high protein. We were elated to find that the phyto-chemical effects from the berry seeds were far greater than that of the berry itself. Our minds ignited and we formulated a health building protein powder that provides the two most important foods necessary today. First, we created a powder that can be used in drinks or on salad that is made of 40% hemp, 25% flax, 25% cranberry, 10% black raspberry and natural plant, Stevia for sweetness. This will provide the fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, proteins and phyto-nutrients all of which enhance Brain Power and Bodily Strength by creating additional neurons (brain cells) and building further muscle. The Hippocrates blend is unique in the entire world and will offer a beneficial option for those who are lacking in either area.
Oil, which continues to be controversial, is consistently being consumed by most health seekers. Although this should be done at minimum levels, there were no good choices that dealt with the cerebral area as well as the rest of the anatomy. We created a blend which is 30% hemp, 40% flax, 20% cranberry and 10% raspberry. When using this oil it should be placed in a manual pressurized oil sprayer such as the Misto, from Italy, which is inexpensive and available at kitchen shops globally.
v Black Raspberry – All essential amino acids, 85% essential fatty acids, 31% Omega 3, 55% Omega 6, Phyto-sterols, Stigmasterol, Campesterol, Beta-Sitosterol. All phyto-nutrients which assist the brain.
v Stevia – An herbal extract from a unique form of complex carbohydrates that assist pancreatic blood sugar levels and actually, gram for gram is 100 times sweeter than white sugar.
The berry seeds contain ellagic acid which research has shown to be anti-carcinogenetic, anti-mutagenic, and anti-bacterial. Additionally they add healthy fiber.
Both the Brain/Body Powder and the Brain/Body Oil are available at the Hippocrates Shop and will enhance your overall health by consuming these food/supplements daily.
