Super food is all that gives you Prana! This means better health and more energy…LONGTERM! It is the opposite of everything that steals energy and depletes you. Even supposedly healthy food can be unhealthy if you are intolerant.

To start with it’s important to say that we don’t even consider the 75% of the “food” sold in ordinary supermarkets that is stuffed with chemicals, or refined beyond unrecognizable, where everything changed except for the name; like some oils, milk or wheat. Apart from that stuff, what is healthy for you, only your body knows, so feel – it can be anything! More about this in next blog.
Studies of what we call food have given us a pretty good picture of how healthy certain food is counting some nutrients. The contents of minerals and vitamins are pretty clear but there are so many other nutrients that we have no idea about, and much less the interaction in between them. At Olive Retreat we focus on the studies that use whole foods and it’s clear that some stick out from other foods relative the cost and the amount of nutrients.

Here is our list of the most common Super Foods (organically grown, of course!) that you can find in most well sorted shops. Have as much as you can of these good friends;
– Clean filtered water; spice it with any fruits and spices that comes to your mind. I love chili water at noon! Filter away as much of the chlorine and other bad stuff in our water.
– Herbs & spices; the harder the spices are like roots and stems the longer they need to be cooked so put it in the pan the first thing with the oil. Leaves and other herbs are better fresh so don’t cook them or as little as possible.
– Vegetables; feel which ones work for you, not all fit everyone but most of us our bodies thrive on raw, green leafy vegetables which provide chlorophyl, micronutrients, fiber and water. Do like our cousins the big apes and eat a lot! Other proven good friends are the cruciferous and the leek (Allium) families.
– Seeds and nuts are compact with both macro and micro nutrient, easy to preserve and to carry around always there to serve. Much cheaper and hugely better protein source than animals. Soak and sprout them and get more nutrients, but after you have to keep them in the fridge as you woke them up.

O•live Retreat demystifies health and in the process it stands clear that health is far from drugs or injections made from petrochemicals.
First we make sure you know yourself, your body and what that means. Then we continue on your healthy path to get to know your body and yourself to do a good cleanse on all levels, Body·Mind·Soul. With over 15 years in this business and, as Conde Nast Travel and some others put it "top-ranked" health retreat, we base our work our own O• method, derived from a multitude of methods, both old and new. You'll get healthier in all areas of life as we don't think one can leave health at home while going to work, we can't say we are healthy if we destroy our bodies over the weekend or vice versa. One is either healthy or not, and what that means can only be defined by each and one and if that is to indulge in the unhealthy stuff it's because it's really worth it for the only judge - you.
The key training for professionals (individuals and groups) is focused on enhanced productivity through self-inspiration and self-care. As a high equity manager in the finance sector put it - it's all about staying highly inspired. We couldn't agree more and we know how that biochemistry looks like.
Independent studies find that 96% of our guests become more healthy and stay healthy after 6 months, 82% stay healthy after a year. This is a better rate than anyone other treatment or training, as far as we know. Our teachings are based on modern science, and ancient evidence based techniques, and a lot of personal experience with trial and error, in the field of being a healthy human. and healing.
We start all training with a health assessment and by asking what healthy means to each one? How you define it is what counts, but one thing is similar for all no matter what you learnt - a natural, anti-inflammatory lifestyle is everything we need (without drugs) but many things our society finds "normal" cause inflammation and therefore diseases.

For those who are healthy and ready to take their own health out to the world, do more for others and the Earth or have a story to tell we offer Kindfullness projects, support, editing, writing, marketing, translation and publishing.(www.hardonkarma.com)
