Longevity Food ~ Super Natural Foods
The Ultimate Super Natural Food Some years back, I read an article about an elderly gentleman and at that time, he was considered to be the oldest living person in America. He claimed he came to America on a slave ship, managed to survive that initial ordeal and (at the time of reading the article) was in good health at the prime age of 130. The obvious question is, what was his secret? It seems, as he stated, omega-3 fatty acids, the bone-building nutrients and more, from these tiny titans. He ate them almost daily. Well, this super seafood does have it all! Unfortunately, too many people in North America have never tasted a "true" sardine. Most of what’s canned and marketed in North America as sardines are really fish that are only similar to sardines, but they are not the real thing. Authentic sardines, called Sardina pilchardus (Walbaum), come from places like the pure, clean waters of Portugal. They’re actually quite mild, delicious, and literally flake off your fork. This is what sardines should taste like, and here is a delicious way you can enjoy them any time and perhaps enhance your own longevity.
