10 Superfoods in Shakeology

As I have stated many times here Shakeology is one of the best drinks you can put into your body. Recently Dr Perricone posted an article on the top 10 superfoods, which all by the way are contained in Shakeology.

Of course, there are more than just 10 “superfoods.” In fact, just about every brightly colored fruit and vegetable fits the category of a superfood, as do nuts, beans, seeds and aromatic and brightly colored herbs and spices. The beneficial properties of each one of these superfoods could fill an entire book. The 10 featured here were chosen because of their direct link to the Brain-Beauty Connection. These foods (listed here in alphabetical order) are rich in either the Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), antioxidants or fiber, and as in the case of açaí—all three! In addition, we have included foods that have been proven to lower or help regulate blood sugar levels—an extremely important factor for all of those concerned with slowing the aging process and preventing diabetes, obesity, wrinkles and a host of degenerative diseases.

Health Benefits
Although many of these foods have reported medical benefits, remember at all times that if you have any type of health problem or physical symptom, do not self-diagnose or self-medicate—even if with a food or herb. Trust your medical professional first and foremost in this department. However, the 10 foods included here do have incredible health benefits. Listed below are just some of the reasons to include these foods in your diet—every day:

* Prevent or reduce inflammation
* Help regulate metabolism and burn body fat
* Lower total cholesterol
* Lower blood pressure
* Help protect against heart disease
* Help protect against cancer
* Help protect organs from toxins
* Promote digestive health
