The Importance of Green Food for Our Health Articles | Green Food Supplements

By: David Kurniawan

We are what we eat, I'm sure almost everybody has heard this. But do you really understand that our bodies are definitely required clean and healthy food to maintain their finest performance?

I would say clean and healthy food since not all clean food is healthy and vice versa. Not only pesticides and other chemicals have stained our crops, but the over usage of fertilizers and growth inducing hormones results in cancer-proned human bodies to those who consumed this kind of food for a long term period.

On the other hand, animal products are not spared from the reality of the spread of the animal specific diseases. Mad cow disease will bring neurological damage to humans, whereas bird flu disease which recently became an outbreak in some Asian countries will create severe flu symptoms to the infected humans. What about the fish? It is commonly known that some fish from specific seas have been tainted by heavy metals. One of the infamous cases is the Minamata disease caused by eating fish tainted with mercury.

With all these horrible facts, we must start to find ways on how to improve the quality of food we eat. While drastic change in the eating lifestyle is not advised, you may want to start consuming organic fruits and vegetables on a more regular basis than before. The term "organic" means that there is no usage of chemicals (pesticides and fertilizers are chemicals) and growth inducing hormones in the crops and animals.

Unfortunately not everybody has the privilege to eat those healthy foods as regular as they want. This is where the consumption of health food supplements is required to make up for the substances required by our bodies.

One of the recommended health supplements is the one made from organic green food. Why choose green food? Green food, specifically made from green barley, contains the most nutrients compared with others. It is a healthy supplier of amino acids, proteins, vitamins (especially beta carotenes) and minerals.

Take it regularly; you may need to start with smaller amount before taking the normal advised dose. This is to "condition" your body, especially your digestive system, since the green food will help to cleanse the toxic inside.

So start a healthy habit today to improve the quality of your health.
