MMW L10 - Super Food

Introduction

Why do we call them Super Foods?

Because they have abnormal natural nutritional values, that are average or above average of the daily dietary requirements. They are easily grown in different climates and need less complicated procession.

A lesson from John the Baptist’s diet

Mark 1:6 “And John was clothed with camel's hair….and he did eat locusts and wild honey.

CH 72 “John separated himself from friends, and from the luxuries of life. The simplicity of his dress, a garment woven of camel’s hair, was a standing rebuke to the extravagance and display of the Jewish priests, and of the people generally. His diet, purely vegetable, of locusts and wild honey, was a rebuke to the indulgence of appetite, and the gluttony that everywhere prevailed.”

Since his diet was purely vegetarian, the locust he ate could only have been the locust tree - Carob, which was commonly found in the arid areas of the Middle East. Both it and the honey are super Foods, full of nutritional values.

Carob (Locust Tree)

Has well-balanced sugars similar to those in honey. Its pH stands at 10.6, which is extremely alkaline. It’s good for bones, teeth, gums, low blood sugar, poor blood circulation, ulcers, dysentery and low blood pressure, goiter, dysentery and diarrhea, sore throat, coughs, stomach and bowel inflammation.

Honey

Honey is composed of mainly three sugars - Fructose, Glucose, and Sucrose in a balanced form, together with some small amounts of vitamins and minerals. The inner super Foods within the honey are: Royal jelly which is reserved for the queen, making her the most beautiful and energetic in the hive. On this diet she’s able to lay thousands of eggs. The pollen is the main food for the worker bees. Both the royal jelly and pollen are very good for energy, digestion, immune and reproductive systems.

1. Sunflower (Helianthus annuus)

This is a super food rich in nutrients: Vit B1 – 2.3mg which is more than the daily requirement.

Protein 22.8g slightly above meat. Vit B1 1.29mg, B2 at 0.25mg, B3 (Niacin 10.3mg), Vit B 60.77mg, Vit. E at 50.3mg – among the highest among Foods. Calcium at 116mg, phosphorus at 705mg, magnesium at 354mg, Iron at 6.77mg, potassium at 689mg, zinc at 5.6mg, and total fats at 50%.

Sunflower is a complete food missing only a few nutrients. It’s good for nerves, heart, reproductive, skin problems and anemia. The high fat content makes it a big source of cold-pressed cooking oil.2. Cashew nuts (Anacardium occidentale)

Protein at 15.3g, Vit B1 0.2mg, Vit B2 0.2, Vit B3 Niacin 5.35 and Folate at 69.2ug. Vit E at 0.57mg, Calcium at 45mg, Phosphorus at 490mg, Magnesium at 260mg, Iron at 6.00mg, potassium at 565mg, zinc at 5.6mg, total fat 46.4g.

It’s also good for nerves, cramps, spasms, and fatigue.

3. Oats (Avena sativa)

Protein a 17mg, VT B1 at 0.7mg, Vit B2 at 0.14, Vit B 3 Niacin at 4.86mg, and Folate at 56ug.

Vit E at 0.7mg. Calcium 54mg, Phosphorus at 523mg, Magnesium at 177mg, Iron at 4.72mg.

It is good for diabetes, gastritis, and colitis. It lowers cholesterol, gives energy, improves mental performance. It’s a good starting porridge for babies, and one of the best breakfast cereal.

4. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa)

The word Alfalfa is derived from an Arab name (“al-fac-facah) meaning “father of foods .” Other names - Lucerne, purple medic, Buffalo herb, feuille This plant continues growing up to 4 years or even longer on good climate and soil. It’s roots get down to over 15m deep, making it a deep mineral hunter. The dosage should be within 5 to 10 grams and only for a short time.

Not recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. Care should be taken when using its sprouts - need thorough washing because it is easily contaminated with E. Coli and Salmonella bacteria. It’s high fiber contents may cause diarrhea, gas and cramps.

Nutritional values: Protein is at, Vit B 1 at 6.33%, Vit B 2 at 9.69 %, Vit B 3 3.01 %, Vit B5 at 11.26 %, Vit B6 at 2.62%, Vit C at 9.11%, Vit K at 25.42 %, Copper at 17.44 %, Iron at 12%, Phosphorus at 10%, Zinc at 8.36%, Magnesium at 6.43%, Manganese at 8.17%. Calcium at 3.2%, Potassium at 1.68%Selenium at1.09%.

Alfalfa is good for both human and animal food. A help in diabetes, high cholesterol, arthritis, urinary track infection, menstrual problems, muscle function, etc.

5. Moringa (Moringa oleifera)

Other names - Miracle tree, Drumstick tree, Horse radish. Is one of the super Foods we have selected. It is at: 7 times the Vit C in oranges, 10 times the Vit A in carrots, 9 times the protein in yogurt, 15 times the Potassium in bananas, 25 times the Iron in Spinach. Since it is easily grown in many climates, it is an excellent tool against malnutrition and many other health problems.

Nutritional chart: 27.1 g protein, Calcium in the powder is at 4000mg, Iron at 28mg, Zinc at 30mg – which is exactly the daily requirement of it. Vit B 1 at 2.64mg, Vit B 2 at 20.5mg, Vit C 220mg in fresh leaves, Vit E 448mg in fresh leaves, and 113 in the powder. Calcium is 440mg in fresh leaves and 2003mg in powder, and Magnesium is 42mg in fresh leaves and 368mg in powder.

 Potassium at 1324mg, Iron at 28.2mg, Sulphur at, etc.

6. Barley (Hordeum vulgare) Barley grain nutritional value is almost the same as in Oats. How we are not dealing with the grain here, but the nutrients of the Barley grass which are extremely high. The most valuable ingredient in Barley green grass is chlorophyll which is at 0% of the solid content of the green grass juice. Chlorophyll is the plasma of green leaves, similar to the human blood hemoglobin. Hemoglobin and Chlorophyll are very similar, only differ in the bonding atoms.

The bonding atom in Chlorophyll is magnesium, whereas in human Hemoglobin is Iron.

 When a human being drinks the chlorophyll, the body changes it into human blood in a matter of few hours, by just replacing the Magnesium with Iron!

 Chlorophyll is also rich in oxygen ions (ozone), making it an excellent deodorant, also kills the anaerobic odor-producing bacteria, reducing bad breath and bad body odors. Chlorophyll also protects from radiation from X-rays, television, computer and phone screens, transmitters, microwave ovens, etc.

The nutritional value of Barley green juice is very abnormal: Protein at 45g (more than twice meat), Potassium at 8880mg (skim milk powder at 1335mg/ peanut - 680mg / Spinach at 490). Calcium at 1108mg (skim milk powder is at 1200mg, milk at 100mg, fish at 170mg).

Magnesium at 225mg (peanut 181mg, skim milk 111mg). Iron at 15mg (Spinach at 3, Fish at 1, wheat grain at 1.5mg, peanut at 1.6). Phosphorus at 594mg (skim milk 980mg, peanut 380mg, fish at 320mg, Barley grain at 140mg, milk at 90mg). Carotene for Vit A is at 52000mg (Spinach at 8000mg, banana 200, lettuce at 200). Vit B1 1.29mg. Vit B2 at 2.75mg. Vit B12 at 8080mg (if not the highest in plants). Vit C at 329 ( orange at 53mg, Pawpaw at 61.8mg, lemon at 53, guava at 184mg). Vit 7 is at 51mg ( Sunflower at 50mg).

The best time to harvest the young Barley grass is at 10 days after germination when the shoot is making the first stem joint of the first additional leaves. But according to Dr. Yoshihide Hagiwara of Japan, the highest nutritional value peak is reached at the time the seed or embryo

joint occurs at about 21 days after germination. Therefore, this is the best time to harvest the young Barley grass.

Conclusion

This study has enlightened us to make excellent food formulas to combat malnutrition and thus a good number of resultant health problems. For example: If you combine the juices of Barley green grass + Alfalfa + Moringa, you are on your way to a better destination. You may continue to improve on it by trying to add Sunflower seeds, peanuts, and perhaps some skim milk powder.

 That would be an extra-large superfood! In the past, a brother had a sick child, and there was no further help from the hospital. The child had a serious nerve problem where his name was loose and was becoming disabled. I didn’t have a better remedy. I just advised the use of plenty of Sunflower seed power in porridge. The child was restored.

 We can also notice that becoming a well-informed vegetarian is not the beginning of a rough road trip. Check the high nutritional value in these super Foods that can easily replace meat and fish, if keeping and eating them as raw as possible.

 It is now each one of us ‘s homework to experiment on the natural things that God has given us. Let us remember His words: Psalms 104:14, 16 “He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth…The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted.”
