- To be a "superfood", means that it is able to sustain life. The only real "superfoods" are leafy greens, grasses, algae and spouted seeds.

- Hand juices or masticating juicers are the way to go as they retain the life force in your food.
I left with a lot of great information, much to think about and this...
A subscription to Chatelaine magazine and new protein powder to try. It is all natural and made with New Zealand whey (I will do a review for you in an upcoming post :)
I also scored a free yoga mat for signing up for the magazine:
I'll leave you with my favourite quote of the evening from a great speaker named Michael Bergonzi:

What are you doing this weekend?
Have you ever been to a health show?
Stay Healthy,
