Vital nutrients

Food is our best medicine. To prevent cell degeneration and increase our vitality we choose food nutritious, rich in minerals, vitamins and essential fatty acids:
  • Sprouts (alfalfa, lentils, broccoli...)
  • Dried fruits
  • Seeds (pumpkin, sunflower, sesame...)
  • Avocado
  • Wheat germ
  • Flax oil

This Coenzyme is essential for transformation and contribution of energy to every living cell and increases longevity by slowing the aging process. This is due to its antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals.
There are foods that help us to produce it naturally, like nuts, sprouts or spinach.
We can also opt to take it as a supplement for a period of at least 3 months.
