Super Healthy Gift Ideas for the Holiday Season

Wednesday, November 28, 2007 by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger Editor of NaturalNews.com (See all articles...) Tags: superfoods, healthy gifts, health news

If you're giving gifts to friends, relatives or coworkers this holiday season, be sure to consider the nature of the gift itself: Does it promote health? Was it sustainably created? When it is disposed of or consumed, what kind of impact will it have on the environment? Was it created with honest labor, under rules such as Fair Trade?

This year, we've asked selected superfood companies to put together special Christmas gift packs for NewsTarget readers. They've responded with some exciting gift sets that you can purchase online right now and have shipped to you well in time for the holidays. Please note: NewsTarget earns nothing from these product sales (except for the soap nuts, which are carried by our own store), and we have not been paid to run these promotions. These are offered solely for the benefit of our valued readers!

Here's what's available right now for NewsTarget readers:

The Ultimate, Best Ever Chocolate Lover's Package From David Wolfe's Sunfood Nutrition

Treat yourself this holiday season to the best chocolate ever! Included in this wonderful holiday chocolate package is Sunfood's raw, organic whole cacao beans. All chocolate is made from the cacao bean. The raw cacao bean is one of nature's most fantastic superfoods due to its wide array of unique properties, many of which are destroyed or corrupted by cooking. High in magnesium, Vitamin C and iron, enjoy these whole beans straight out of the bag, in a smoothie or dipped in your favorite sweetener.

For the ultimate chocolate treat, enjoy a Fortina raw chocolate bar or one of two raw Sacred Chocolate hearts included in this package! Sacred Chocolate is infused with love, peace and gratitude. All Sacred Chocolate hearts are made with David Wolfe's 100% certified organic, raw, Sunfood Nutrition brand cacao nibs, beans and butter. Fortina's chocolate bar is seriously decadent, truly raw and snaps in your hands and melts in your mouth. Each bar is dark, rich and fully flavored prepared at low temperatures with the finest raw ingredients from David Wolfe's Sunfood Nutrition.

Good Cause Wellness Holiday Wellness Gift Pack!

Alan Friedman's Good Cause Wellness company is a rock-solid provider of superfood products. He offers astoundingly good customer service and incredibly fast shipping times. He has everything in stock and ready to ship right now (as of this writing), but order quickly if you want some to beat the holiday rush. Here's what Good Cause Wellness has to say about their gift pack:

Our Holiday Wellness Gift Pack is a collection of our most popular, delicious and nutrient-rich products. This collection of healthy products provides a wonderful alternative to the unhealthy foods that are abundant during the holidays. It's also a great sampling of products to get the New Year off to a healthy start.

Each Holiday Wellness Gift Pack contains the following:

• Chia Seeds, 8 oz.
• Organic Goji Berries, 6 oz.
• Incan Berries, 7 oz.
• Aloe Vera Blueberry Drink Mix, 13 servings

These products provide essential nutrients, vital antioxidants and abundant phytonutrients. The lucky person who receives this gift gets a bounty of some of nature's most healthy natural foods like:

Chia Seeds: Rich in Omega Acids
They might be nature's perfect food with a rich supply of essential Omega-3 acids, protein and antioxidants. Easy to add to smoothies, baked goods or hot cereal.

Organic Goji Berries
Our Goji Berries are abundant in vital nutrients that strengthen the immune system, provide antioxidant protection and aid in weight loss programs. Eat by the handful or add to mixes or baked goods.

Incan Berries
Incan Berries have a delicious, sweet taste and are rich in nutrients and vitamins like A, B, C and P. Anyone who tries Incan Berries is hooked on their great taste.

Aloe Vera and Blueberry Drink Mix
Our Aloe Vera and Blueberry Drink Mix provides the nutrient-rich benefits of two superfoods in a simple, delicious drink mix that’s superior to aloe vera juice. Studies show Aloe Vera helps balance blood sugar levels and soothes the digestive tract.

Notes from Mike Adams: This is a really outstanding gift set from Good Cause Wellness. The superfoods it contains are exotic, nutrient rich and are great conversation starters. That's why it makes such a great gift, because people will want to ask you, "What is this cool stuff?" And you get to share with them all the great news about chia seeds, goji berries, aloe vera and Incan berries. This is a gift that the recipient will remember for years! (You can bet nobody else is giving them something so cool. Most food gifts are crap foods, made with processed meats, cheese and junk ingredients. When you give someone this superfood gift set, you'll look like a genius compared to the goofballs who bought a bunch of the same old boring junk food baskets as Christmas gifts. In fact, if you want to make your coworkers look like idiots -- and who doesn't? -- give your boss some superfoods for Christmas!)

Superfoods are especially important around the Christmas season because so many people are eating so much garbage foods that they desperately need a boost in nutrition. That's why I strongly recommend that if you're going to be some food items as gifts, jump in and get these superfood gifts instead. It will make a world of difference in THEIR health and YOUR credibility. You'll literally be giving the gift of health instead of disease! Goji berries, by the way, are considered the "longevity berry" in Chinese medicine.

1,000 Kilos of Soap Nuts Natural Laundry Detergent Just Arrived!

I have great news just in time for the Christmas season: We've just received another 1,000 kilograms of soap nuts (as in, literally just this morning). This is the 100% natural laundry detergent that grows on trees. It replaces all those toxic laundry products that most people use, relying on the natural saponins in the shells of these nuts to clean your laundry.

It's great for personal health, family health and environmental health. There are no boxes to throw away (it comes in a nice cotton bag) and uses minimal packaging (just a thin plastic wrapper to keep the soap nuts dry). One bag handles more than 200 loads of laundry, making this equal in cost to chemical-based laundry detergents (about 15 cents a load).

We are right now shipping a package of five bags (that's 5 gifts!) for the sale price of $129, which is a $20.75 savings over the regular price of $149.75.

The last time we announced these soap nuts, we sold out in a matter of days. In fact, we've already sold 150 kilos of this new shipment, so we only have 850 kilos remaining for the Christmas season. If you want to give these Soap Nuts to someone as an eco-friendly gift, please order them now while we still have some in stock: Click here to order 5 kilograms of Soap Nuts for $129 (Note: NewsTarget does earn money from soap nuts sales. This helps fund our ongoing news and reporting operations.)

We also have 1 kilogram bags available: Click here to order a 1 kilogram bag for $29.95

Obviously, it's a much better deal to order five kilos at a time. Give four away as eco-friendly gifts, and keep one bag for yourself to do laundry with over the holidays...

More Superfood Gift Sets Coming...

We are talking with yet more superfood companies to put together holiday season gift sets for NewsTarget readers. Transition Nutrition is working on one right now that we expect to announce shortly, and we're trying to get the folks over at Better Than Roasted (www.BetterThanRoasted.com) to put together a package, but they're crazy busy and it may not happen in time for Christmas.

We also have a fantastic discount we've negotiated on an exciting new superfoods product that's just hitting the market. We'll be bringing you that announcement soon. (You'll be amazed. We've pushed hard and reached an agreement to be able to announce this at an amazing 65% off retail price exclusively to NewsTarget readers. Watch our site for this upcoming announcement soon!)

We'll be bringing you more great deals as we track them down and make 'em happen.

Remember, NewsTarget earns nothing on these product sales (except for the Soap Nuts product), and we don't solicit fees from these companies to promote their products. This is all for YOU, our readers, to bring you the best healthful gift ideas and product discounts we can find. And why do we do this? Because we want to make NewsTarget valuable to you while maintaining strict journalistic integrity. It's part of our recipe for success that has now led to NewsTarget.com reaching nearly 800,000 unique readers a month (and growing...).
