Superfoods
As evidenced by our longest-lived elders, the latest scientific research, and clinical practice in disease prevention and reversal, the Superfoods diet, and accompanying lifestyle, is key to optimal health.
Superfoods are plant-based, nutrient-dense, calorie-sparse, health-empowering foods. So eat from Dr. Todd’s Superfoods Pyramid…use it as your field guide. I have my patients take it with them to the grocery store to use as a shopping guide. And, do take my Eat Yourself Super 21 Day Superfoods Challenge! Your health is never stagnant, it is either getting better or worse based on your habits. The challenge is designed to ingrain the good ones and demonstrate how easy, fun, and delicious it is to eat healthfully via Superfoods!
By eating a diet rich in Superfoods, you will provide yourself with plenty of good carbohydrates, balanced proteins, good fats, bioavailable vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, plant pigments, enzymes, antioxidants, hormone precursors and other phytonutrients and phytochemicals, including biophotons and other essentials we have yet to uncover.
In this day and age, we all fall a bit short here and there. Depleted soils, altered microbiota (both on us and in our environment), as well as toxins and stressors are all around us. Sometimes we need to help ourselves out a little. The top of our Superfoods pyramid features those foods which help us to bridge this gap to optimal health and wellness—Functional Foods. Three very important ones are: Maca, Cat’s Claw, and Matcha.

Dr. Todd
A good laugh is great medicine too !!!!
I tried my wedding dress on yesterday. Not only is it fitting better, but its going to have to be taken in before my big day! I couldn’t be happier!!! Currently overturning my closet and getting rid of ALL clothing thats too big. Putting that lifestyle in the past never felt better!
That is GREAT news! Keep on going as you enjoy your Superfoods Journey.
Many thanks for sharing.
Dr. Todd
Eve I had to do a double take when I saw you stocking the lunch meats. I thought it was a new girl in the meat department! The super foods are doing amazing things for you.I know that you are getting your husband to be on super foods journey too. You both are going to be a stunning couple on your wedding.Keep up the great work!!!!!
Here comes the superfood bride and groom!!! Eve, you radiate sunshine inside and out…we’ll keep going! Let’s try to incorporate some superfoods on your wedding menu.:)
Adele says she said “NO” to ham on Easter for the first time in her life! She was proactive and prepared superfood recipes to eat instead, including quinoa pasta with hot peppers, tomatoes and basil, as well as fruit stew for dessert. She’s just beaming with pride. Way to continue our journey, Adele.
Thank you to everyone!! I am so grateful for everyone’s support and help in informing me on better ways to treat my body. My fiancé has had great success too, not to mention the increase in energy he has gained! His work is very physically demanding so that change has been monumental for him. I notice when he gets home he’s less lazy too
So EXCITED my jeans that didn’t fit for the last 6 mo. are fitting great. on Easter fell of the Superfood wagon and ate Pastry. Boy once I started My body just wanted more sugar. I really felt the addiction kick in. So I’m starting fresh to tell myself no sweets…..
Paula,
Don’t forget to drop the diet coke !!! I’m watching you>>>>>>>> LOL!!!
I completely concur! Yuk! Stay away from it. Joe, do keep your eye out. We are all in it together, eh, Paula?
Dr. Todd
Nice on the jeans! Not so nice on the pastry! Then again, don’t be too hard on yourself, you are doing great! I am sure that you better appreciate the addictive power of refined sugar as well, this will make for less likelihood of it happening again in the future.
Dr. Todd
paula, say “yes” to the beautiful new dress you bought for the family wedding coming soon, and say “no” to the dough! (pastry dough, that is!) do drink your matcha instead of the diet coke…no more scenes with joe having to throw it in the garbage!! (good job joe:)) paula you’re doing great-we are on the journey with you.
I came back to work after a 3 day mini vacation and I’m very excited to hear about some success stories since our 21 Day Challenge kick of this past Thursday at the Mentor Heinen’s. Nice job everyone!
I love slipping superfoods into my family without them knowing and they say this is so good.. thanks to sara for great receipes.
That is the beauty of superfoods. Health empowering and delicious! Just a few tricks here and there. Yes, thanks to Sara, for orchestrating this 21 day challenge group. She is doing an amazing job. We will keep on going!
Dr. Todd
I am so proud of the associates who have been making positive changes to their life. I had many great success stories at the meeting yesterday. Most of the gang has included greens in their diets, chia seeds, and overall healful awareness. There were a few people who lost up to 4 pounds! In only 7 days! Keep moving forward and more importantly, have fun!
I TRIED TO MAKE MY OWN HUMMUS NOT AS GOOD AS JOE’S I HOPE HE GIVES OUT HIS RECIPE!!!
Wow! I Have stayed away from white sugar for one week and thought I would have a starbucks with my kids. I could not even drink it it was super sweet!
Nice Cathy. I know, Joe’s hummus was soooo good. So the staying away form white sugar thing is working? Very nice. Very excited about the meeting tomorrow.
Great to see the awareness around superfoods and healthy eating in our store. I have noticed that the girls up fron that are on the journey are also sharing what they have learned with other associates and customers.
Cathy, nice job on staying away from white sugar. Isn’t it amazing when you get away from sugar for a week then try to have it how overpowering it is.
We need to get more people on the blog to share what they have learned and help to support one another.
One last thing i am on the Matcha kick, Sara has me hooked. I do feel more balanced during the day especially at night.
Thanks again, Nick
Nick!
You are awesome! Thanks for checking in. Do enjoy the Matcha!
Dr. Todd
Sorry I missed the meeting today I got to try jeannies risotto though that was awesome! Hope people catch our excitement
My kids think this is temporary little do they know. I am enjoying it all!
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Cathy you crack me up…Yes Jeannie’s risotto was great, wasn’t it? We missed you too:)
I started the SUPER FOODS JOURNEY three weeks ago and now I look at food in a different way. Before I started this journey I was a poor eater. I hated vegetables and ate a litte bit of fruit. Now I incorporate foods from the SUPERFOODS PYRAMID as part of every meal. My wife Kathy has joined me in this lifestyle change. We have tryed several recipes from EAT YOURSELF SUPER and enjoyed them all. Since the start I’ve lost four pounds. We have cut out meat,dairy,white flour, sugars and processed foods. For us this is a lifestyle change, a better way of life not a diet. I would like to thank Dr. Todd for his book, time, and all his knowledge he shares with us. Also Iwould like to thank Nick for sharing his views and pointing me in the right direction on how to get started. Thank you to all the girls up front for your suport throughout this amazing journey. Sara I cant thank you enough for getting this started all your hard work and being there for all of us you did a great job THANK YOU
Hi Joe! Many thanks to you for joining the journey! We will keep on going.
Be well,
Dr. Todd
Hi Joe! What an amazing comment; thank you so much:) You have done such an amazing job and I have really enjoyed listening and talking with you over the last few weeks. And yes, this is a lifestyle diet (not a fad diet) and you won’t stop after the 21 days are up, I know it. I’m really looking forward to our last meeting tomorrow and I can’t wait to hear what everyone has to say, and even more so, what they bring to eat! We better come hungry…
wow!!!! i can’t stop thinking about Sara’s wonderful show today. Sara you are very talented! i truly enjoy spending this past 3 week with all of you on this journey. now to continue is going to be fun! i hope we become contagious.
Thnx Cathy…First time I ever played in my work clothes:)
i hope dr. todd posts it soon i want my family to hear you thank you dr. for bringing the guitar to our store not to saras house
I bought Dr. Todd’s book along with his three supplements to take on the 21-day challenge. My problem is, I’m not very creative, and I would love some guidelines or suggestions on what to have for breakfast, etc. Some sample daily menues would be great!! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
come to Heinen’s we sell Alvarado street bread you can toast it put almond butter with some honey and chia seeds on it. it’s really tasty. oats with walnuts and honey use almond milk to help it not be too thick. there is a recipe in the book for a smoothie that’s also filling and easy. good luck it is a lot of good food. if you are in mentor Ohio come see the wellness consultant she is great for ideas.
