Nature’s most powerful sources of nutrients
Dictionaries define “superfoods” as being nutrient-rich and considered to be especially beneficial for health and well-being. That’s a good start, but there’s much more to superfoods than that.
Soaring Free Superfoods, define superfoods as organic or wildcrafted, raw, plant-based whole foods that have been recognised since ancient times as being able to heal and nourish the body.
Superfoods often come from the world’s most energetic places, such as the Amazon rainforest, the Andes mountains, the foothills of the Himalayas and the African savannah. Every biome produces superfoods that have been traditionally used by indigenous peoples.
Western science is now proving what these ancient cultures have always known: that the exceptional nutrient density of these foods is far beyond that of conventional foods. With the incredible healing abilities of these nutrients, superfoods bridge the gap between food and herbal medicine.
