Health Talk: Lowering Cancer Risks

Living Food Farm’s Barley Grass Powder can help reduce the risk of getting cancer. Why do we say that? Our Barley Grass Powder comes from our carefully nurtured soil which is very high in nutrients and minerals. The soil has been well kept without chemical since 1979. As a result from careful attention and proper farming, our barley grass has high levels in sugar content.

One of the most important mineral in plants is flavonoids. Researchers, Asami DK, Hong YJ, Barrett DM, Mitchell AE (February 26, 2003) explains that flavonoids in plants protect themselves from insects, bacterial and fungal infection. The same flavonoids in plants help prevent cancer, heart disease and any age-related neurological dysfunctions. Living Food Farm’s barley grass has high levels of flavonoids, made possible from our mineral filled soil. Most farmers, organic or not, use some kind of spray (chemical or organic) to protect their plants. In Living Food Farm garden, we do not use any kind of protection spray and the grasses do not have problems with insects, bacterial, and fungals.

According to American Cancer Society, they predicted that 295,280 men and 275,000 women will die from cancer in 2005. One of 2 men is at risk of getting cancer while women are 1 of 3. Getting prostate cancer is a highest risk for men while breast cancer is for women.

Is there any way for you to lower your chance of getting cancer? Yes there is! If you are taking Barley Grass Powder, Celtic Sea Salt, and Wolfberries faithfully as well as reducing your sugar in your diet, then you will lower your risk of getting cancer. Researchers have proven that eating raw vegetables will help reducing the risk. Our Barley Grass Powder is number one vegetable you can take daily because it is:

1) Grown chemical-free.
2) Highest in sugar content (see Tour).
3) Highest in vitamins and minerals compared to any other vegetables.
4) It is grown from high quality soil, nurtured over 27 years now!

Note:
There are many methods that can lower the risk of getting cancer. There are researches proving that chemotherapy is not the only help for cancer prevention. What you eat is very important, too!

Health Talk: Miscellaneous News

A product change: No more Barley Grass Powder with Garlic and Strong Celtic Sea Salt

No more Barley Grass Powder with Garlic AND Strong Celtic Sea Salt. This flavor is not one of the options anymore. We are not selling this flavor any longer because of low demand from the members.

We now have 5 Flavors of Barley Grass Powder, they are...

1) Barley Grass Powder (regular)
2) Barley Grass Powder w/ Alfalfa
3) Barley Grass Powder w/ Stevia (herb sweetened)
4) Barley Grass Powder w/ Strong Celtic Sea Salt
5) Barley Grass Powder w/ Garlic

Goji Juice: Does it taste differently?

It should and it’s good news! The company who prepares the Goji Juice bottles has reduced the amount of pear juice to make the Goji Juice taste stronger. Its color is more reddish now after this change. Living Food Farm supports this change because it is better to have more Goji Juice now instead of adding other fruits juice which weakens the value of vitamins in Goji juice.

Future of Sun-dried Chinese wolfberries and Goji

Juice Living Food Farm will continue to keep a close eye on sugar contents of Goji Juice and Chinese wolfberries with our trustworthy refractometer, it measures the sugar content levels. So far, “excellent!” levels are showing!

Learn more about sugar contents at: http://www.livingfoodfarm.com/tour/sugarcontent/InDepth.shtml. If either of these berries turns out to be poor, we will be sure to inform you immediately.

Chinese Wolfberries, the cool ways to “eat” it instead of just chewing it.

Idea #1
- Mix 1 cup wolfberries with ½ cup of water, and soak it (in a sealed container) overnight in the refrigerator
- Spin them in blender to make it smooth, and mix it with your favorite juice. Take 2 tablespoons per day. Store it in a container in refrigerator.

Idea #2
- Add raw honey or maple to 1 cup of wolfberries and ½ cup of water, and soak it (in a sealed container) overnight. Enjoy the soft and delicious berries for your breakfast! Take 2 tablespoons per day. Store them in a container in the refrigerator.

If you catch a cold:
Take one tablespoon of soft wolfberries every 2 hours until cold goes away
Mucus will be coughed out which is good news. Wolfberries are getting rid of it.

Goji Juice, different ways to “drink” it.

If you want to enjoy the taste of Goji juice even more, you can always add 1 to 3 ounces of orange or apple juice with about one ounce of Goji Juice. You can buy "Florida's Natural, Premium, Squeezed From Fresh Oranges, Not From Concentrate" at grocery or health stores.

Barley Grass Granola Mix: What is it?

It is almost like Pancake Mix or Cake Mix that you buy at the grocery store but Granola Mix is much healthier. It contains sprouted flour, barley grass, stevia and cinnamon. The ingredients you will need to add to the granola mix are:

6 cups quick rolled oats
Distilled water
Olive oil, butter or coconut oil
Raw honey
Vanilla extract

Directions on how to make it will be enclosed after you order…

You will need a dehydrator machine to dry the granola after you mix the ingredients. It has lower temperament as compared to oven. More important, it will not destroy the vitamins and minerals in the granola. Check out this website: http://www.livingfoodfarm.com/info/granolamixrecipe.shtml. It explains really clear on how to make the granola! We sell the cheapest one you can ever find!

This dehydrator machine, it has many other uses. You can dry many fruits and even some meat with it. Strawberries, apples and strips of thin sliced meat are some of examples.

After you make the Green Barley Granola yourself, will it be worth it? YES!

You can bring the granola anywhere you go. It tastes great with yogurt or as a cereal with milk. At work, Granola will be easy to eat as a meaningful snack, instead of those tempting candies or chips. Very soon, we will start selling the granola ‘samples’ so you can taste how good our Green Barley Granola can be.

Lastly, we encourage you to share with us your ideas what you usually eat with your granola, wolfberries and drink your Goji Juice so we can share your ideas with the Members. Send us an email via webmail: http://www.livingfoodfarm.com/contact/index.shtml
