Help Improve Athletic Performance With Watercress

Nature's Most Nutrient-Dense Food

The optimal diet for an athlete includes watercress, says B&W Quality Growers. This healthy, flavorful, leafy green is loaded with essential nutrients and can protect athletes from damage caused by vigorous exercise.

Watercress is the most nutrient-dense food on the planet and is the only food to get a perfect score from ANDI and the CDC index rankings. Watercress contains antioxidants and amino acids. Antioxidants are the body's defense against damage caused by free radicals. Amino acids are the essential elements of protein, assisting in digestion, tissue growth, and hormone and neurotransmitter production, creating an energy source, promoting healthy skin, hair, and nails, bolstering our immune system, and helping to maintain regular digestion. These incredible benefits make amino acids an essential part of an athletic routine.

Free radicals are decidedly unstable compounds that the body naturally produces during rest, exercise, predominantly strenuous activity, and when the body converts food into energy. Individuals can also be exposed to free radicals through sunlight, x-rays, car exhaust, cigarette smoke, air pollution, and industrial chemicals. Free radicals are necessary for life and muscle functioning and are thought to promote adaptations to exercise.

However, an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants can cause oxidative stress, contributing to cell damage. Oxidative stress delays muscle recovery, contributes to muscle damage, and is linked to numerous diseases. Eating an antioxidant-rich leafy green diet packed with watercress can promote recovery from exercise, decrease the likelihood of muscle damage, and lower the risk of several chronic diseases.

Watercress may be remarkably beneficial as it's packed with abundant nutrients. Studies have shown that athletes who consume watercress two hours before exhaustive exercise develop lower levels of DNA damage and lipid peroxidation, which can lead to cell damage, compared to those who did not eat watercress before a workout. Researchers also found that eating a serving of watercress daily for two months decreased DNA damage and lipid peroxidation. This means athletes benefit from strenuous exercise with less potential for tissue damage.

Get juiced up on that leafy green goodness daily by adding watercress to salads, smoothies, sandwiches, wraps, omelets, pizza, and more.

Author Christian Anderson Releases New Book ‘When Revival Turns to Revolution’

In his new book When Revival Turns to Revolution, author and evangelist Christian Anderson gives the reader insight into what has brought society and the Christian Church to their current state of moral decay and what it will take to biblically restore them.

Anderson describes how the revolutionary changes in the culture of the 1960s and 1970s brought about a revival of secularism that befalls society today, negatively impacting everything from the schools to the government to the churches. 

Whereas revivals have come and gone throughout the history of the Church, Anderson postulates that hope is coming in the form of the largest Christian revival that has ever occurred, and we've already begun seeing the beginnings of it on college campuses. 

When referring to past revivals, he writes, "What if I told you these occurrences sparked by radical individual followers of Christ were never meant to be one-off events? What would it mean if we could see a perpetual moving of God's Spirit and witness the whole world fill with the knowledge of the goodness of God?" According to Anderson, this will only transpire when revival brings about a spiritual revolution.

Using 2 Chronicles 7:14 as the foundation, he skillfully walks readers through the four steps necessary to reach revolution that are reflected in this scripture: repentance — learning to know God; revival — leaning on God; restoration — loving like God; and revolution — leading with God. He asserts that these biblical pillars, reflected on the four points of the cross, hold the keys to the fulfillment of every Christian believer's call — the Great Commission. Anderson writes, "Revival is great, but only if it marches toward the redeeming of mankind. If it can be contained in a building, it is missing something."

Christian Anderson is a graduate of Lee University with a degree in pastoral ministry. His experience in spiritual outpourings makes him an anointed teacher and preacher. He has participated in starting churches and catalyzing people for the work of revitalizing many ministries. 

The eBook of When Revival Turns to Revolution is being offered through Amazon at a special introductory price of $0.99 on July 31 and Aug. 1. Click here to order today.
