Confessions Of The World’s Top Superfood Hunter #168
Darin Olien is probably the only kid who did a grapefruit cleanse during middle school in Small Town, Minnesota – and those three days set the course for the rest of his life. It was the first time that Darin realized how the things he put into his body either healed him or hurt him.
And Darin needed a lot of healing. Born prematurely and only three-and-a-half pounds, Darin grew up feeling weak and fragile. Later, a football injury broke his body again. But every time Darin perceived weakness, he saw that as an opportunity to make a shift and do something about it.
So Darin started eating superfoods, picked up some dumbbells, and stumbled upon a simple recipe for transformation: make a choice and follow it with action.
Today, Darin is bringing his hard-won wisdom to the rest of the world as an exotic superfood expert, supplement formulator, and environmental activist who travels the planet to discover new and underutilized medicinal plants – and I can’t get enough of his latest discovery.
Darin found the exotic baru nut, or Barukas, in Brazil. These little guys are packed full of healing goodness: anti-aging antioxidants, good fats for brain fuel, plenty of fiber, muscle-building protein, and incredible amounts of disease-fighting micronutrients that your body craves. On top of that, they taste delicious, somewhere between an almond, cashew, and peanut.
So if you want the benefits of the healthiest superfoods on the planet plus a flavor better than almost any other legume, it’s time to hop on the Barukas train.
