Acai versus Maqui- Is there a definitive Detox Superfruit?

The two important superfruits, Maqui Berry and Acai Berry have gained an almost mythical reputation for the way in which they can help the body in so many different ways. Despite being more significant in the marketplace than the Maqui, the Acai Berry is starting to feel the challenge from its Superfruit

The rainforests of Brazil are where the Acai Berry was identified and it has been utilized by the ancient tribes of the region for many centuries. Similarly the Maqui berry comes from the Patagonian region of Chile and has also been used as a natural supplement for generations by the Mapuche Indians of the region.

The Acai berry is prolific in nutrients such as amino group acids, a comprehensive spectrum of Vitamin B, Vitamins C and E, minerals, omega 3 fatty acids and dietary fibre.. At one point, it was thought to be the superfruit with the highest antioxidant value.

Numerous strategic research has determined that Acai may now be losing some of its previous popularity because it is no longer perceived as the ultimate superfruit. Once the media got hold of Acai and it was pushed in an predatory manner it began to lose its credibleness, this was brought about by shady business practices and the use of inferior quality products.
Despite this negativism, it has been comprehended that there is not sufficient hard work done by credible manufacturing businesses to school the public about the impressive benefits of Acai, all of which is substantiated by medical research. In order to preserve outstanding Acai products in the running race, producers are advised to uphold outstanding manufacturing and to use every possible means of media to emphasize the scientifically supported benefits of the Acai berries.

What then considering the Maqui berry? They have now been scientifically evidenced to have the highest levels of anthocyanins, which are the antioxidants accountable for the potency of the berry. Maqui berries also contain minerals such as iron, calcium and potassium; along with Vitamins A and C, but do not contain the famous omega 3s, instead they have high levels of omega 6.

The Maqui Berry is still relatively unknown in the public domain, after only getting more widely known in 2008. Despite this recent scientific research has evidenced that its claims to be the supreme superfruit can not be taken softly.The Maqui berry has consequently got a promising future and as long as the manufacturers follow an commendable production schedule and stay away from mass media publicity, then it is positive to become a tremendous hit in 2010. With an antioxidant level up to a hundred times more than red wine, then its desire to be the ultimate superfruit is going to necessitate some serious competitors to knock it from the top step!

Maqui Berry Detox

So you know you need to take some sort of supplement. And everyone is always talking about how fabulous their antioxidant is . So how do you know which one is actually worth your money.

Let me share some of what I have learned over the past 15 years of knowing some of the sharpest scientific and medical minds in the country (hopefully I absorbed some wisdom purely by osmosis). I have also managed to raise three children with ZERO visits to the doctor for illness.

Here is a little perspective. Your body produces 4 endogenous (meaning your body makes them) antioxidants. They are the most important antioxidants known. Of these Glutathione is the most important. The other three are: Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Alpha lipoic acid (ALA), and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10).When an antioxidant supplement works it typically produces results by indirectly increasing 1 or these 4 endogenous antioxidants.

So how do you see through all the massive amount of marketing hype on which supplement is best for your body?

First do not accept testimonials exclusively as a measurement of product effectiveness. Dramatic changes in health can be realized by simply drinking more water.

Second do not accept “scientific proof” that focuses on raw ingredients of a product instead of the product itself. Raw ingredients are very sensitive to processing. The finished product may have nothing to do with the cool research. This is what I call “borrowed science.”

Also do not be fooled by high ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) numbers. This is a score thrown around by many marketers. What they don’t tell you is that ORAC test gives false numbers for many berries and the original test only scores for water soluble areas of the cell. Also the process of combining raw ingredients that are good separate can produce a product that actually produces free radical damage.

Here is an example of a product that does everything wrong.

Third look for products that have studies showing that the product works in humans using a double blind study.

Here is an example. http://www.protandim.com/pdf/ProtandimFRBMpaperJan152006.pdf

Protandim shows that it can increase two of your bodies antioxidants SOD by 30% and Catalse by 54% in 120 days and decrease a measurement of aging by 40%. Pretty good stuff.

So how does a product like MAX GXL compare? MAX GXL gets your body to increase its production of Glutathione.

It is important to understand that Glutathione is the most important of your bodies endogenous antioxidants. So an increase in Glutathione is more important that an increase in SOD etc.

In this study http://mxl.myvoffice.com/pdf/en/glutathione_study.pdf

MAX GXL increased Glutathione levels inside the cells by almost 300% in 60 days as well as decreasing your bodies main cause or contributor to any disease associated with aging (inflammation) by 60% as well as increasing 2 important biological hormonal markers of youth and vitality by 40 and 46%. (important note: GXL does not contain glutathione but instead gets your body to produce it)

So the results? Half the time and almost 600 percent better results. Any questions?

Thanksgiving dinner will not be complete without the beloved cranberry sauce.

The peak season for cranberries is in the fall when the fruit takes on its distinctive deep red color.  They are cultivated mainly in Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Washington, and Oregon.

Most cranberries are processed into products such as juice, sauce, and sweetened dried cranberries.  The berry is also used in baking muffins and scones but, unlike many other berries, is normally considered too tart to be eaten by itself.

Cranberries are a good source of vitamins A and C as well as dietary fiber.  They contain antioxidants that may help reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease and stroke.

Packed in plastic bags cranberries will keep in the refrigerator for up to two months. These berries can also be frozen and they’ll stay fresh for a year.

Classic Cranberry Sauce Made from Scratch

3/4 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 (12-ounce) package of fresh or frozen cranberries

Combine sugar and water in a medium saucepan.  Bring the sugar mixture to a boil and add the fresh or frozen cranberries. Return to a boil. Reduce heat and boil gently for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cool completely at room temperature. Refrigerate until serving time.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1⁄4 cup)

Allowances: 1/2 allowance of fruits and 1 allowance of sugar

I remember the first time I went berry picking. I was about 7 years old at the time and some family friends owned a blueberry farm (well, it wasn’t a farm, probably more accurately it was an acre or so of blueberry bushes at the bottom of their land). I was terribly excited to go blueberry picking and remember running out into the bushes, twirling the wicker basket along my arm. Pulling the plump berries from the bushes and shoving them in my mouth was great fun. However, as the morning wore on and the sun rose in the sky, the appeal of berry picking began to wane. I ended up discarding my basket (with precious few picked berries in it) and chasing some of the other kids up and down the bushes, generally creating a nuisance for the others who were actually harvesting the fruit. Eventually it was time to take a break and we went inside to enjoy fresh blueberry pancakes with ice-cream and maple syrup. To me, these pancakes were the highlight of the day.

More recently, we have made it somewhat of a tradition to visit Gentle Annie Berry Gardens whenever we head to Lorne. If we visit on a fine day during December or January we will head out into the gardens and come home with more berries than anyone could rightly need. When it is too hot, too cold or we are simply too lazy we still visit the berry farm, but instead of rushing to the bushes we make a bee-line for the tearooms.

The Gentle Annie tearoom is a study in all things berry related. Of course, they do offer a range of savoury dishes (pies, quiches etc which we have tried once or twice) but the obvious draw are the fresh berry concoctions. After a somewhat successful lunch at the Olive farm, we decided to stop by Gentle Annie for dessert. Here is our selection of berry related goodness:

Berry smoothie

Rich, milky, berry smoothie with an abundance of seeds and an excellent mauve hue.

Warm berry pie with ice-cream

A warm berry pie, served with ice-cream. The hot-cold combination in a dessert is always a favourite of mine. Soft, warm, oozing berries, encased in a thin, crispy, homemade pie shell (that I sadly can’t eat as it is wheaty).

Strawberry pancake with maple syrup

A simple pancake with fresh strawberry filling – yum!

And the winner of the day – fresh, warm scones with cream and  jam made from the gardens (strawberry and silvanberry respectively):

Assembly:

About to be demolished:

Sated and full of various incarnations of berry, we headed to the farm shop to replenish our stock of jams, preserves and sauces:

They make and sell a variety of jams (including strawberry, strawberry and rhubarb, silvanberry, loganberry and raspberry) as well as dessert sauces and cordials, ice-cream and berry sorbets. The farm shop even sold a berry candy that strongly reminded me of the roll-ups of my childhood (which they claimed were good for you, although even as a child I suspected these were not – turns out I was right).

Heading back to the car, balancing my prizes in my arms, it came close to that feeling of happiness I had after my first day of berry picking.

Jams are $6 (although raspberry is $7)

I realize I’m a bit behind the eight ball considering most of these great little bites came from my friend’s party on the Upper East Side as we watched the New York City Marathon which took place earlier this month, but in honor of today’s Philadelphia Marathon (congrats to all the runners including John Crews and Jutta Merilainen who took home the big honors for the day!) and some other upcoming marathons such as Atlanta on November 26 and the Space Coast Marathon coming up on November 29 to name a few (more information at http://bit.ly/8WaEk3), consider these great little party snacks to keep your non-running crew happy as you cheer on the runners:

Gluten-free pumpkin muffins (a side of sweet cream cheese is perfect!)

Ham and swiss party sandwiches (these are a bit tricky in terms of temperature, so if you want to serve them hot, take them out of the oven after your guests arrive):

Mini cheese grits (mini-muffin style):

Sausage bites (these were my favorite!)

Yogurt berry parfaits with homemade granola:

Presentation is key here too. Huge props to my friend Suzanne for putting together this tasty menu!

A wonderful little weekend trip when staying in and around Sydney  is to take a drive down the South Coast from Sydney. You head out from Sydney towards Wollongong and keep going down from there. This can be a great little one day trip down to Nowra and Jervis Bay or you can keep on going and spend the night in some of the many beautiful towns along the way.

Here is my advice for a nice 3 day trip spending 1 night in Stanwell Tops or Berry and 1 night in Jervis Bay area.

The drive itself from Sydney down our Southern Coastline is stunning. Taking the coastal road via Stanwell Tops is a great start and if you are taking it slowly then spend the morning at SYMBIO WILDLIFE GARDENS. Symbio is fantastic as it has Australia’s most loved Native Animals and you can get right up close and personal with them, cuddling a Koala and feeding a Kangaroo. You can then squeeze in an afternoon of Hang gliding from Stanwell Tops down to the beach at Stanwell Park below, or simply grab an ice cream and watch others give it a go.

SYMBIO ANIMAL PARK: http://www.symbiozoo.com.au/

HANG GLIDING:http://www.hangglideoz.com.au/

Next stop is Kiama. First driving past the gorgeous Bombo beach and through some terrific countryside and catching a glimpse of Australia’s diverse natural environments. Kiama has some great little restaurants and cafes by the sea where you can relax and watch the Pelicans soar in. A visit to the Terrace shops for cute gifts and some old fashioned lollies is a must. Before you head on, take a drive up to the blow hole and Lighthouse on the point- this is always a great thrill for tourists and something that is never boring.

KIAMA: http://www.kiama.com.au/pages/welcome/

Back in the car and its back to the views of the countryside and winding coastal roads with the ever changing scenery to the right at all times. This drive can be done all in one day or take your time and enjoy the little towns along the way. Berry is the perfect place to put up your feet and rest for the night. Whether it’s camping near the 7 mile beach, keeping it cosy in a little B& B or pulling up to a caravan park, you will find all sorts of accommodation here. Great antique shops, boutique fashion stores and homely food will keep you busy when wandering around this lovely little town. The opal store and Chocolate Factory are two of the best attractions, so make sure you’ve got some cash on you.

BERRY: http://www.southcoast.com.au/berry/

The drive then continues down quite straight towards Nowra from here. You will reach the Shoalhaven area and pass many fruit picking spots and vineyards (depending on the season) as well as little beach suburbs. I would suggest renting a house for a night in Collalla Bay, a little further then Nowra or continuing closer to Jervis Bay, Huskisson or Vincentia. Huskisson offers wonderful fishing spots and great whale and dolphin watching cruises. Jervis Bay Caravan Park puts you right out there in the middle of nature with Kangaroos bounding up to your cabin door and always stopping by for a pet. Nearby is also the Valhalla Horse Riding Centre which will take guests through the bush on 1-3 hour guided tours. A brilliant way to see Australia’s Natural beauty.

Valhalla Horse Riding: http://www.valhallahorseriding.com.au

Stop by Nowra’s Information Centre or Visit the Website to get all the hot tips on the Shoalhaven area: http://us.sydney.com/town/Nowra/Shoalhaven_Visitor_Information_Centre_Nowra/info.aspx

So whether it’s a one day trip or a three day trip, there are plenty of options of great things to do and see all along this beautiful coastal path. You can zip straight back after your weekend in 3 hours or again take it slowly with lots of nice stops along the way.

Please see here for a map of the route:

The berries on our tree have turned from green to orange to red.  They’ll stay this way until about February or March when the robins come back and strip the tree bare in a matter of hours.

Have you heard your first Christmas song of the year yet?

I heard one being played on the radio in the last week, so surely that means its time to get festive!!

And I was thinking, what colour nail polish would go nicely with the dress I’m going to wear to my Christmas party?!? Well, you may ask what my dress looks like, and it’s going to be the same answer again. A trusty LBD.

This year, mine is a gorgeous one from New Look, complete with small studs, to add that bit of Grunge Glam I’ve been obsessing over. It’s a bargain at a beautiful £30, and you can re-use it to all the other parties you’ll be seen at too, and make it look different each time.

I have many different ways of wearing this gorgeous dress, but here is my favourite:

- The LBD, of course!

- Black patent heels, about 2 – 3 inches.

- A cute feather bolero.

- Opaque tights

- Silver jewellery

Hmm, and the makeup is also very exciting!!

- Berry coloured nails will stand out from your sexy black dress, get them shaped nicely too!

- A subtle brown smokey eye and some berry gloss on your lips.

Have a Berry Merry Christmas Guys!

Maqui berry has started to increase in popularity since Rachel Ray referred it on one of her shows. She did not elaborate on the berry, but search volume increased by almost 400% that day. Over the course of the last several months the Maqui berry has become the topic of discussion for a lot of people in the health food industry, because of it’s immense gains in the ongoing battle to loose weight, but it hasn’t been catapulted into the mainstream spotlight like the acai berry, at least not yet.

You are probably wondering just what in the world the maqui berry is. At the top of the ORAC scale, you will find maqui berry.

I am deeply unhappy about the state/fate of my BB

Come back to life dammit.

I found a poem by Wendell Berry about “having peace” that I really like,

The Peace of Wild Things – Wendell Berry
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

Feeling horribly handicapped without my bb.

Charge, BB, Charge!
