Dear Living Fuel Family,
  
Tart and delicious cranberries are for much more than cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving.  These rich, red berries are a nutritional wonder that yield numerous health benefits in addition to their sheer delight to the taste buds.

Cranberries are a fun and unique berry.  Here are some unique facts about them that may surprise you:

  • Wild CranberriesThe cranberry “plant” is actually a low-lying vine or creeping shrub that grows up to 8 feet long.  Cranberry plants flourish in cool, acidic, sandy blogs in cooler climates
  • Cranberries are also called “bounceberries” as ripe cranberries actually bounce!
  • Wisconsin is the #1 producer of cranberries in the United States
  • Cranberries are low in calories and sugar.  One cup of fresh cranberries contains just 50 calories
  • Cranberries are a good source of Vitamin C, Vitamin A, lutein, folate, potassium, and manganese
  • Beware of many cranberry juices labeled “cranberry juice cocktail”. These drinks are typically loaded with added sugar, and actual cranberries are a minor ingredient.
  • A very small percentage, less than 10%, of cranberries are eaten fresh—the vast majority of cranberries are canned or juiced.
  • Cranberries have long been thought to aid the body in healing urinary tract infections (UTIs), a condition that affects 50% of women sometime in their lives.  In a 2011 study, medical researchers at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska found that doses of 500 to 1,000 mg of cranberry powder per day were associated with the reduction of recurrences of UTIs by 36 and 65 percent.


LivingFuel SuperBerry®Organic freeze-dried powdered cranberries are an foundational ingredient in Living Fuel’s revolutionary LivingFuel SuperBerry® Ultimate and SuperBerry® Original functional whole-meal superfoods.  Our select cranberries are picked at the peak of ripeness and nutrient density, and their nutritional potency is quickly locked-in by proprietary freeze-drying.SuperBerry® Ultimate contains an incredible 14,000mg per serving of our remarkable berry complex of organic wild blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and cranberries (SuperBerry® Original contains 13,750mg per serving).  Like most fruits, berries are largely water, so these amounts are the equivalent of approximately 100g of whole berries per serving.  Compare these amounts to tiny fraction of berries you’ll find hidden in other “berry” products.


Enjoy cranberries along with over sixty other superfoods, vitamins, minerals, herbs, antioxidants, enzymes, prebiotics, and probiotics in a great-tasting whole meal functional superfood blend.  “Living” fuel indeed!

Dear Living Fuel Family,

 With their bright red exterior, covering of dimpled tiny yellow seeds, and lid of tousled green leaves, the wonderful strawberry is a delight to the eye as well as the mouth!  Here are a few interesting facts about this beautiful berry: 

Strawberries  Strawberries are the only fruit with their seeds on the outside.  Each berry can contain over 200 seeds—it takes just one strawberry to start your own strawberry field forever. Because the fruit is fragile and can bruise easily, all strawberries all hand-picked. Strawberries are an excellent source of Vitamin C, potassium, folic acid, lutein, and fiber. A study from the Harvard School of Public Health showed that that women who eat 16 or more strawberries per week are 14% less likely to have elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a key marker of inflammation in the body.

LivingFuel SuperBerry®  Organic freeze-dried powdered strawberries are a key ingredient in Living Fuel’s revolutionary LivingFuel SuperBerry® Ultimate and SuperBerry® Original functional whole-meal superfoods.   Strawberries, along with their berry brethren organic wild blueberries, cranberries, and raspberries, team up in a powerful berry blend.  We select organic berries at the peak of ripeness and nutrient density, then lock-in their nutritional power by our unparalleled proprietary freeze-drying.  When you purchase “fresh” organic berries from your local grocer, they are usually picked as much as two weeks prior, and begin to lose their nutritional potency as they journey to the store shelves. 
  
  SuperBerry® Ultimate contains an astounding 14,000mg per serving of this remarkable berry complex, and SuperBerry® Original contains 13,750mg per serving.  Like most fruits, berries are mostly water, so these amounts are the equivalent of approximately 100g of whole berries.  No other powdered product today comes close to these levels!  Compare these amounts to tiny fraction of berries you’ll find hidden in other “berry” products. 
  
  Enjoy strawberries along with more than 60 other superfoods, vitamins, minerals, herbs, antioxidants, enzymes, prebiotics, and probiotics in a great-tasting whole meal functional superfood blend.  It’s truly “living” fuel!

SuperHealth to you,

Inside LivingFuel: Organic Marshmallow Root

The first thing that comes to mind when you read Marshmallow Root is likely not a flowering plant that’s home to one of nature’s most powerful and efficacious herbs.  However, Marshmallow Root has been used for thousands of years in many cultures as a powerful herbal remedy for a wide range of dis-eases ranging from colds, cough, and sore throat, to diarrhea, indigestion, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), to even eczema and pinkeye.

The marshmallow plant is native to Europe, western Asia and northeast America and is a fleshy, flowering plant that can reach up to 4 feet high.  According to the University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC), the entire plant contains a slippery, slick substance called mulicage, long-believed to be the active ingredient in the herb.  Mulicage is actually comprised of large sugar molecules, a long chain of polysaccharides, most of which is concentrated in the plant’s root.  Marshmallow root is rich in nutrients and is easy to digest, making it an excellent food during times of digestive discomfort.

Organic Marshmallow Root is one of multiple herbs and numerous high-impact ingredients in Living Fuel’s revolutionary whole-meal functional superfoods LivingFuel SuperGreens,  LivingFuel SuperBerry Ultimate and SuperBerry Original.  Each of these foods contain 300 mg per serving of organic marshmallow root.

Enjoy organic marshmallow root, along with over 60 other superfoods, vitamins, minerals, herbs, antioxidants, enzymes, prebiotics, and probiotics in a great-tasting whole meal functional superfood blend.

It’s truly “living” fuel!

While most of the interior United States remains locked in the cold grip of winter, here in central Florida, the famous Plant City strawberry crop is already rolling into local farmer’s markets, a sign of spring around the corner!

Imagine that a new pharmaceutical drug is released to the public amidst a flood of news reports and television advertising.  This pill has been has been clinically and conclusively proven to dramatically reduce the risk of breast cancer by as much as 80%.  Do you think this would be a popular prescription?

It may come as a surprise to know that healthy lifestyle habits and diet have been clinically shown in a significant number of studies to substantially reduce the risk of breast and other cancers that plague our modern society.  A vast majority of the fund-raising activities for the pink ribbon organizations are rooted in good people with noble intentions, however, with over a billion dollars spent on the “cure”, little progress has been made in this fight.

In today’s LivingFuelTV’s HealthAlert, we turn our attention from awareness to prevention.  Join us as we explore key factors that increase women’s risk and those factors that decrease the risk of breast cancer.  This is vital information you are not likely to hear from conventional medicine.
