Navitas Naturals Sprouted Omega SuperSeed Blend, 8-Ounce

Navitas Naturals Sprouted Omega SuperSeed Blend, 8-OunceI have been doing this for 5 years. It is a good blend. Tried it once, only I make my own mix.

It came fresh and blended well. In my mixer. Things like this take time, to work in you. Check the website navitasnaturals. For more recipes, and videos.

Some of these items have been talked about on The DOCTORS. DR. OZ his website has a 3 day juicing and smoothie plan.

I really hope this helps you. In your search for better health. Even if you use just some of these items. It is well worth trying them.

Here is what I do, Use 3 to 4 servings of each, drink it in 3 days or less. Add water, Hemp milk or Almond milk. About 1/2 full.

1/2 cup Hemp protein power

1 cup Hemp seed nut

1 Tlbs. Chia seed powder (this will gel if you let it sit)

1 Tlbs. Acai

1 Tlbs. Lucuma

2 Tlbs. Gelatinized Maca

2 Tlbs. Dulse flakes

1 tsp. Camu Camu

1/3 cup Cacao (strong tasting, you will know if you use too much)

1 to 2 cups Frozen Blueberries or cherries, mango.

Navitas Coconut Palm Sugar (or YACON to taste)

Also I add some goldenseal root. Not every day.

(Today, goldenseal is marketed as a tonic to aid digestion, sooth upset stomach, and as an antibacterial agent. It is considered a natural antibiotic and is most often combined with echinacea in preparations designed to strengthen the immune system. However, only one study found that goldenseal might help boost white blood cells (a measure of the infection fighting ability of the immune system), and it wasn't well designed.

Start with the bleander half full of water. Mix the Hemp nut, Dulse flakes and frozen fruit first; on high, till it makes a "milk".

Then the rest of each item, you want in it. If it gets too thick. Add some more water.

You can add yogurt, take the seaweed flakes out if you like. it will taste good if you work on it.

I use this everyday... great additive to my smoothies! Tasty and so good for you. Nothing else like it on the market!

This is a fantastic super boost to your daily smoothie. I sought this out as a replacement to a Navitas Naturals product sold at Williams Sonoma for twice the cost of this blend with Prime. Everyone should stick this in their smoothie for an added umph of nutrition.

Cream Of Wheat Instant Maple & Brown Sugar, 10-Count Boxes (Pack of 12)

Cream Of Wheat Instant Maple & Brown Sugar, 10-Count BoxesGREAT -for flavor. Love the instant maple packets. Plain Cream of Wheat is too plain, and I have to add sugar and dried fruit (blueberries, raisins, something!). Which also means buying and storing expensive dried fruits, sugars, etc. Maple flavored Cream of Wheat is great as-is, with no additions. I'm a serious fan at this point.

GREAT -for prep. I live in a cabin (no power, water, or heat) about 1/3 or more of the year. Boil-and-serve foods are important so I can conserve fuel use. Also important are a fast prep and clean-up because I have to do it outside. Yes, I do mean outside in the cold, rain, wind, sleet, snow, etc. -because that's where my stove is. Cream of Wheat really fits the bill: Fast prep, fills me up for hours, gives me a warm stomach even on freezing days, and has really easy clean-up.

PANNED -for price. I give the amazon product listing a LOW RATING -1 star on this. My local grocery's standard price for a case is $39.86. Amazon wants $60 for the same thing. That's an outrageous difference -a 50% markup from the local store. My advice: Call your local grocery and ask for the case price. You'll save big bucks.

I love Cream of Wheat Instant Maple Sugar. In fact, I loved it so much I bought a whole case of it. It fills me up and "sticks to my ribs" so I don't get hungry and snack during the day. The flavor of Maple and Brown Sugar is delicious. I don't like my food too sweet and so this is perfect for me. I received it quickly at a far better price than I would have to pay at a grocery store.

As long as the price is reasonable, buying Cream of Wheat in bulk is a good way to get your daily fiber for several months.

Amazing Grass Organic Green SuperFood Whole Food Energy Bar, 12-Count Bars

Amazing Grass Organic Green SuperFood Whole Food Energy Bar, 12-Count BarsThis product (original flavor) does not have a sweet taste. I enjoy the green nutty taste. I like this product because it is GF, dairy free, and especially corn free. The company told me this is corn free. Because the bar is not heavy in protein, I do not get a sleepy feeling after eating this product. Everyone's body is different, but this product does not make me feel sluggish. Also, Amazon's pricing makes eating healthy affordable. Thank you Amazon!

Update July 2011. Amazon must have changed the vendor. The price now is more expensive and does not offer you a subscriber discount.

Update May 2013: Now back on subscribe and save...yeah!

I brought these at a local health food store since they were the only ones that weren't peanut butter or chocolate flavored, or didn't have several lines of "extra" ingredients in them. These are on the savory side of the flavor spectrum, if you like the sweeter granola/energy/fiber bars, these will be on the bland side. The best way to describe the taste is that they taste like they look green. I found these were much more filling that traditional granola bars with less calories, fat, and additives. However, they are on the pricey side. I keep these handy in my car and purse to prevent hungry trips to fast food restaurants when time is short.

I purchased these energy bars because I like the Amazing Green Energy drink made by the same company. The bars taste very good and give me a good "raw" energy during my 40 mile bike rides. I would recommend them to anyone that is interested in a not too sweet, raw, energy boots during physical activities, or just for a quick snack between meals to keep your hunger at bay.

I have never eaten the nutrition bars (no matter what brand) and wanted to give them a try. I use the Amazing Grass dried wheatgrass powder in my smoothies in the morning and decided to try the bars. They have a very dense texture, and I needed a lot of water in order to eat a fourth or half of a bar. I purchased the 12-count package and ended up giving away most of the bars. I just found them to be too difficult to eat.

Most of the "Energy" bars found in supermarkets are so full of refined sugars and processed ingredients that they're hard to digest and actually slow you down. These are full of raw, high-net-gain ingredients, so the body can digest them easily and get that energy you need and/or really curb hunger between meals. I buy them via Amazon because I get a better price than at most health food stores and because they're somewhat hard to find. I definitely recommend them and try to keep some around for quick snacks on the go.

Nature's Path Organic Flax Plus Raisin Bran Cereal, 14-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)

Nature's Path Organic Flax Plus Raisin Bran Cereal, 14-Ounce BoxesIf you've never had flax seed oil before, you may notice a slightly "off" flavor to Nature's Path's version of raisin bran. I think even flax newbies will habituate to this taste, especially because of the familiar taste of the multi-grain flakes and the raisins (see other reviews). As one who sometimes puts a tablespoon of flax seed oil on top of oatmeal, the flax seed flavor was a welcome change from the usual cold cereal offerings.

THis cereal is pretty darn good for you> Obviously, you're gonna want to consult a doctor or nutritionist, and I am neither. From a lay person's pont of view, however, the 11 grams of fiber("11 WHOPPING grams," I should say--that's way more than oatmeal, and more than bran flakes or any other hot or cold cereal I've seen) 600 grams of Omegas and no saturated fat all sound very good for you. If offers 20% of the Daily Value of iron (see nutritional information below), without any added iron! Very rare. Perhaps it has to do with all those organic grains (and raisins): Organic whole wheat flour, organic wheat bran, organic oat bran, organic barley malt extract. (See below for a complete list of ingredients.)

Nature's Path is making some of the most interesting cereals around, with healthy organic ingredients not often found in other products (e.g., pomegranites, pumpkin seeds). You can get a good idea of the breadth and depth of their products by visitng their website at naturespath.com

Nutritional Information without milk (per serving, or 3/4 cup, about 55 grams; 7 servings per container). 180 calories, 10 from from; 2.5 grams(g) of total fat, no saturated or trans fat, 600 mg of Omega 3 and also of Omega 6, no cholesterol, 280 mg sodium (12% of the daily value for a person on a 2,000 calorie diet), Total Carbohydrate, 41g (14%0, Dietary Fiber, 11g (28%), Sugar, 16 g, 4% Daily Value of of Calcium, 20% of Iron.

Ingredients. Organic whole wheat flour, organic wheat bran, organic raisins, organic evaporated cane juice, organic flax seeds, organic oat bran, organic barley malt extract, rice extract, sea salt, tocopherols (natural vitamin E) added to enhance freshness. May contain traces of peanuts, tree nuts, or soy.

Bought this from Amazon Warehouse Deals, 4 boxes for $9 and change. Nowhere in the description did it say that the boxes I would receive would expire within 2 months of purchase (purchased Sept 2012, box expiration (or is it sell by?) says Nov 2012). Either way this is utterly disappointing and misleading. The organic Kashi I purchased at the grocery store in Sept 2012 does not expire until May 2013. Normally Amazon does a great job but this felt really underhanded.

This is very good cereal. It is healthier than most raisin cereals. I like it being organic too. The flax is also a plus. In the end, it is just slightly less desirable than the NP Pumpkin raisin cereal. But you will like this cereal.

Oh, man do we love this cereal! My family tried the Natures Path Organic Flax Plus and loved it so much that I bought a case from Amazon and while I was at it, decided to try it with raisins. Oh my goodness! Crazy Good! I'm going to have to up the deliveries of this. Everyone loves it, and we use the Flax Plus on occation on it's own, but usually in parfaits now. TRY THIS CEREAL!!

Great cereal @ a great price. Taste good even though it is good for you. Not like other cereals that claim to have raisins and really only have a small handful in the entire box.
