Elements for Life Seminar with David Wolfe

It was all about Superfoods, like Goji berries, Inca berries, Maca powder, Aloe Vera, and of course Cacao.I have read of two of David Wolfe’s books, Naked Chocolate and Eating for Beauty.

I enjoyed both of them a lot, so I was really interested in seeing the man behind it all, and learning something new.

It was a very rewarding experience. David is a very passionate and charismatic speaker. You can tell that he really knows his stuff.

We got to taste the samples of some of their products, like the goji berries, inca berries, the colloidal gold, the island fire (a really spicy health tonic!), marine phytoplankton (one drop of which gives you a bolt of raw energy), and raw cacao nibs. I also purchased a couple of heart shaped chocolate bars. They are gone by now, and it only occurred to me to take a picture after I pigged out on them! So, sorry.

The products are not cheap, I must admit. For example, the marine phytoplankton is around $60. But since you only need a drop of it, and it is extremely good for you, I guess it’s a wise health investment. And another thing I noticed as well, was that all the products were of a very good quality, actually much better than the ones from competitor brands available at Whoolefoods. The cacao nibs tasted crunchy, very tasty, and not acidic at all compared to the GoHunza brand cacao beans I purchased in the past. Those ones I couldn’t really eat without sweetener, but I went crazy on cacao nibs from Elements for Life! May be I got a bad batch from GoHunza, or may be it has to do with the quality of cacao beans in the first place. By the way, David Wolfe mentioned that he had 2 cacao farms of his own in Hawaii. I thought it was amazing.

Goji and Inca berries also tasted very fresh and not as dry as they normally are from other brands. So take notice.

I got a good tip about goji berries: drop a few of them in your tea, let it steep, and enjoy. I have tried it, it tastes good. Apparently, it is an old Chinese technique.

We learned that it is possible to plant goji and inca berries in a pot right here in New York, which I am planning to do.

And thanks again to my good friend and a Superhero, Donna Yee from Elements for Life www.togreathealth.net for the invite!
