Note
from Viveca:Just a couple months
ago I didn't eat breakfast, hated oatmeal and was indifferent to benefits of blueberries.
What changed? I got sick and tired of being tired.
Tired in the morning, tired in the afternoon, tired in the
evening ... I had enough! So, I started taking with docs, reading,
researching on the internet ... All of this led me back to the benefits of
nutrition started with breakfast! Then came the blueberries and the flax
and a concoction called The
Blueberry-Oatmeal Energize! Try it yourself & enjoy!

Benefits of Flax:
Richest source

lignans
(potent cancer fighters) known in nature. Emerging
scientific evidence demonstrating health
benefits of omega-3 fats, particularly omega-3s
from fish and flaxseed sources, has been a
popular topic in recent news. Scientific claims

Benefits of
Blueberries:
Blueberries
to their high antioxidant content, noting that
“just one serving of fresh or frozen blueberries provides as
many antioxidants as five servings of carrots,
apples, broccoli or squash.” In fact, USDA
studies rank blueberries number one in
antioxidant activity compared with 40 other
fruits and vegetables. Research led by Dr. James
Joseph at the USDA Human Nutrition Research
Center on Aging at Tufts University that
demonstrates the potential for blueberries to
improve motor skills and reverse the short-term
memory loss that comes with aging. Another
benefit of blueberries is that studies
show blueberries, like cranberries, help
maintain urinary tract health. Components in
blueberries reduce the ability of E. coli, a
bacterium responsible for urinary tract
infections, to adhere to the lining of the
bladder Research that shows ellagic acid, an
antioxidant found in blueberries and other
berries, may block the metabolic pathways that
can promote cancer.
Benefits of Wheat Germ:
Vitamin B6
regulates the production of thyroid hormone and
metabolism; Any deficiency of Vitamin B5
interferes with our capacity to utilize fat.
Vitamin B5 also plays an important role in
energy production and assists adrenal function,
Vitamin B2 is needed for normal thyroid function
and metabolism; Choline is needed for efficient
fat metabolism
