Super Foods

   Tue, April 29, 2008 - 9:23 AM
I started taking some super foods last week that I've never had before, and they are having a tremendous impact on my consciousness and how I feel each day.

Last Wednesday I started drinking Island Fire, which is a Noni juice elixir with ginger, turmeric, and some other things. It's SUPER spicy! For most of the past week I would pinch my nose while I drank it, and immediately chase it with a shot of water. I was drinking about 4 oz. per day. By Friday I was sleeping an hour and a half less than usual. I found myself waking up naturally at 730, which is truly delightful, given that I normally would never wake up at that time. I have more energy and clarity, and so I started giving it to Ken, too. The first day that I gave him a shot in the morning on an empty stomach, he said that he had the most productive day that he can remember.

I got introduced to Island Fire by one of the owners of the company that distributes it, Adam of Elements For Life, whom I met at Cafe Gratitude last week after one of the employees said, "Go talk to that guy, he's giving a way free noni shots and has a really cool company that's giving all of it's profits above costs to evolutionary projects." Sweet! That sounds cool...

Now I'm hooked on the stuff. I strarted drinking it on an empty stomach every morning, and I drink more throughout the day. So that was last Wed. Then on Friday, I recognized this guy at the Digital Be-In at Temple, but I couldn't place him. I asked my friend, who's that? "That's Adam." I thought, "Huh. I know him from somewhere." Then I passed him later in the club and said, "Do I know you?" And he said, "You look really familiar." Yadda yadda...We couldn't place each other at that moment.

Then on Saturday, I'm at the New Living Expo teaching my class at the Conscious Dancer space, and who do I run into? Adam, carrying a box of Island Fire. "Now I know where I know you from! You're the noni guy!..."

I told him about what has been occurring for me, and he said, "You should become a wholesaler if you're drinking that much." So he gave me his card, and then gave me a bottle of Island Fire AND a bottle of Gold Rush. I had bought a bottle of Gold Rush before, but didn't drink it all and it oxidized, so it wasn't edible. Gold Rush is a colloidal gold solution of water that is saturated with gold particles. Elements For Life creates this liquid up at their laboratory in Novato. Adam recommended drinking some with the Noni. So I started that on Monday.

THEN last night, I decided to go to Cafe Gratitude after my late class ended in Berkeley. Instead of going to the location in Berkeley, I decided to go all the way to San Francisco, bypassing my house on YBI, and heading into SF, which would mean that I would have to backtrack. I thought it would be quicker for some reason. It was divine intention.

I walk into the restaurant, am saying some hellos, and who's there? Adam. And Chad, the cofounder of Elements For Life, and Smiley, one of their chemists. They were finishing up a business meeting with a guy who makes concentrated marine phytoplankton superfood.

They were just about done with their meeting, so I joined them, and I got to sample the phytoplankton. After 45 minutes I felt high! I bought a bottle of it, and just had some today, along with Gold Rush, and noni.

I'm flying!

super concentrated foods are really great and powerful - i'd like to try them!
although i'd be careful with the metals....i take colloidal silver whenever i'm sick (it's a natural antibiotic) but there is a threshold before it becomes toxic, and it's pretty low. is there any warning about it on the gold rush?

Good call
Thanks 4 the reminder, you are what you eat.
I take the Gold lightly and randomly, defiantly aids in conscious awareness.

plus
In response to the comment above mine,
With the gold there is no threshold stated but there is a daily amount recommended. A teaspoon or two depending on each individuals threshold.
My Dad as a pharmacist had the same response, that it could be toxic. He's only known it to be used to help patients with arthritis.
I think it's fine if you take the small teaspoon daily to help a physical condition, but if you are taking if for the expanding consciousness factor as I have, it should be used occasionally or for short times as an aid.
It's not to be addressed lightly for it is powerful stuff, and thus to be used lightly in yield to it's intensity.

noni taste
No, noni definitely doesn't taste good. i drink it with my nose pinched and chase it with water! now i'm to the point where i can drink it without pinching my nose. the benefits are well worth the pungent flavor.
