Navitas Naturals  These berries are thought to be one of the one
These berries are thought to be one of the one of the healthiest natural foods. There are many "stories" about the amazing benefits of these berries, many of which may be true, but a few verifiable facts about them (in dried form) follow:

1) High protein (about 12%), and are a complete protein. This is good for anybody, but particularly noteworthy to vegans, who choose not to get their protein from meats.

2) Decent fiber content (about 10%)

3) 18 (!!) amino acids

4) Like most sweet fruits, high in carbs and calories. 100 grams give you about 350-380 calories; roughly 3/4 from carbs and 1/4 from fat.

5) 6 vitamins, 8 amino acids, 11+ minerals (more in trace amounts)

6) Carotenoids, unsaturated fatty acids (this is a good thing), phytosterols (help lower cholesterol), and other healthy (or theoretically healthy but not particularly well researched) phytochemicals.

Enough with the technical jargon. These berries are great in cereal, smoothies (once hydrated), and tea. For tea, try this:

Put water, a small number of berries (6-15ish) and a teabag in your cup, microwave for about a minute per teacup (time varies), drop a small amount in your favorite tea along with the teabag and let the berries and tea steep for about 3 minutes.

This adds a subtle character to green tea (plus an unusual, tasty snack to do with a few of the sips). The flavor seems to blend well with chai and jasmine too. This may work differently for those who use creamer.

I recommend that you try a bag, keeping in mind that you may need to soak the berries in water/tea/whatever in order to make them soft, and see what you think.Read more

MAQUI has lots of tiny seeds, I find it best it a thicker drink like a smoothie. This one tasted good.
Make sure if you blend it, you run it a while to cut the seeds up. I found it helps me with glucose levels.

Some of these items have been talked about on The DOCTORS. DR. OZ his website has a 3 day juicing and smoothie plan.
Check the website navitasnaturals. For more recipes, videos from there head chef.
I really hope this helps you. In your search for better health. Even if you use just some of these items. It is well worth trying them.
I use it in this shake, Use 3 to 4 servings of each, drink it in 3 days or less.
Add water, Hemp milk or Almond milk. About 1/2 full.
1/2 cup Hemp protein power
1 cup Hemp seed nut
1 Tlbs. Chia seed powder (optional)
1 Tlbs. Acai
1 Tlbs. Lucuma
2 Tlbs. Gelatinized Maca
2 Tlbs. Dulse flakes
1 tsp. Camu Camu
1/3 cup Cacao (strong tasting, you will know if you use too much)
1 to 2 cups Frozen Blueberries or cherries, mango.
Navitas Coconut Palm Sugar (or YACON to taste)
Also I add some goldenseal root. Not every day.
(Today, goldenseal is marketed as a tonic to aid digestion, sooth upset stomach, and as an antibacterial agent. It is considered a natural antibiotic and is most often combined with echinacea in preparations designed to strengthen the immune system. However, only one study found that goldenseal might help boost white blood cells (a measure of the infection fighting ability of the immune system), and it wasn't well designed.

Start with the bleander half full of water. Mix the Hemp nut, Dulse flakes and frozen fruit first; on high, till it makes a "milk".
Then the rest of each item, you want in it
If it gets too thick. Add some more water.
You can add yogurt, take the seaweed flakes out if you like. it will taste good if you work on it.
