Are you trying to begin 2020 with a healthy and super start?! Well we have you covered with our selection of superfoods that will give your new year a healthy kick start!
It’s safe to say that most of us want a healthy start to the year, especially following the silly season! Don’t worry, we’re fairly confident you’re not alone in making more health-conscious and nutritious decisions and we’re here to help.
It’s generally advised to start small and one way you can do that is by adding some nutritious superfoods to your diet. So, here are our top picks for giving your 2020 a healthy kick start!
Diatomaceous Earth or Fossil Shell Flour
Pronounced ‘dia-tom-ay-shus’ Diatomaceous Earth or Fossil Shell Flour is the fossilised remains of microscopic organisms that are mostly made of silica, an essential mineral if you want strong bones and healthy skin, hair and nails. Now, you might be wondering what the difference between Diatomaceous Earth and Fossil Shell Flour is. While they are both forms of Diatomaceous Earth (DE for short), DE packaged under the Fossil Shell Flower label is sourced from an extremely pure freshwater deposit, guaranteeing its high quality and purity.
Although the health benefits of Food grade Diatomaceous Earth are still being discovered and explored, it has been known to help with the following:

Micronised VolcaMin or Zeolites
If you’re looking for a detox to kick off the new year, this is it! Micronised VolcaMin is a rich source of zeolites, which in terms of detoxification, is a game changer. Zeolites are a volcanic mineral, one of the few negatively charged minerals found in nature and are unique in structure, oddly enough, they resemble honeycomb.
With each chamber negatively charged, positively charged toxins like lead and mercury are attracted to its unique structure. Zeolites work like a magnet, travelling through the body attracting and trapping toxins, and since we don’t store zeolites, they exit the body once bound to a toxin or two. Our VolcaMin Zeolite is available in both a powder and capsules.
Fulvic acid or FHC
It’s often called ‘nature’s miracle molecule’ and considered the ultimate ‘nutrient booster’ and for good reason! Fulvic acid or FHC (Fulvic Humic Concentrate) is a collective of vitamins and nutrients that help improve gut health, including trace elements, electrolytes, probiotics, prebiotics, fatty acids and silica.
The benefits of fulvic can include:

Moringa Oleifera

Moringa’s benefits can include:
