When I read The Lost Ways Series, I thought I had discovered all of the long-lasting foods that people need to make and stockpile for the next crisis.
But as it turns out, I was only half-right.
Sure, I had learned about the importance of preserving and storing essential grains, beans, and dried meats, but what about superfoods?!
Superfoods that are not only highly beneficial for our health but have also withstood the test of time?
It was through my exploration into the world of superfoods as a Naturopathic Doctor that I discovered a whole new hidden power – the power of LOST superfoods.
The new edition, called "The Lost Superfoods", is a powerful resource I am glad to my natural health book collection.
Only my education as a Naturopathic Doctor and Master Herbalist prepared me more than this book has.
Want to learn more about what I found inside and to hear more about my review of The Lost Superfoods Book?

What is a Lost Superfood?
Lost superfoods, as the name suggests, are ancient food sources that have been largely forgotten or overlooked in modern times. These incredible edibles possess exceptional nutritional value and unique medicinal properties. The best part is, they often require minimal effort to grow or forage, making them a valuable asset in any survival situation, or when seeking optimal health and vitality.
Lost Superfood #1: The Moringa Tree
One of the most astonishing Lost superfoods I came across is the Moringa oleifera tree. Native to the sub-Himalayan regions, this tree is widely celebrated for its remarkable nutritional profile. Often referred to as the "miracle tree" or "tree of life," the Moringa tree leaves contain:
vitamins A, C, and E,
the minerals calcium, potassium, and iron.
antioxidant rich
anti-inflammatory
What's truly incredible about Moringa is its resilience. Even in harsh climates and drought conditions, this tree continues to thrive and provide sustenance. By incorporating Moringa leaves or powder into our diets, we can tap into this hidden power, and nourish our bodies with sustainable nutrition that lasts for years.
Lost Superfood #2: Salvia Hispanica
Another remarkable lost superfood that shouldn't be forgotten is Salvia Hispanica. Commonly known as "chia seeds" in the USA, these tiny black seeds might appear deceivingly unimportant. However, they pack a mighty punch when it comes to their health benefits.
Originating from Mexico, chia seeds were once a staple in ancient Mayan and Aztec diets. These civilizations recognized their incredible endurance qualities, as chia seeds could be stored for years without losing their nutritional value:
impressive omega-3 fatty acid content which are crucial for brain health
reducing inflammation
support heart health
excellent source of fiber
beneficial for digestion and promotes feelings of fullness
Including chia seeds in your long-term food storage ensures that you have a rich, nutritious source of sustenance that can last for a significant period.
Lost Superfood #3: Camu Camu
Lastly, let's not forget about the hidden power of the camu camu fruit. Originating from the Amazon rainforest in South America, this vibrant orange fruit is revered for:
more vitamin C than any other known food source on the planet
builds the immune system
provides a strong collagen growth
provides overall vitality.
By harnessing the power of camu camu, we can safeguard our health during times of crisis and reap the benefits of its immune-boosting properties.
While The Lost Ways Series introduced me to the importance of preserving essential foods, their new book "The Lost Superfoods" showcases the hidden power that lies within lost superfoods.
From the miracle tree Moringa, to the mighty chia seeds, and the vitamin C-packed camu camu fruit, these ancient superfoods offer not only sustenance but also vitality that can withstand the test of time.
By unlocking the world of lost superfoods, we open ourselves to a wealth of health and wellness even in the face of uncertainty. So, let's delve deeper into these forgotten treasures and discover the untapped potential they possess for our well-being.

In Conclusion--My Final Thoughts in Review of The Lost Superfoods Book:
We seem to be in perilous times.
With the world seemingly at war with itself, we can't rely on anyone else but ourselves to protect our family.
We can prepare by buying food and arming ourselves, but what good is it if we don't have the energy to cook or fight?
Or we are too sick to fight because our immune system is run down?
This book should be in everyone's preparedness plans!
