What are Superfoods?
Superfood is a term that is often misused nowadays. It should be used only for foods that are rich in a wide variety of nutrients, and so is considered to be ‘especially healthy’. Several of our supplements are widely-accepted superfoods, completely natural and high-quality.
What Superfoods do we have?
Chlorella
Chlorella, Chlorella Vulgaris, is a single-celled, freshwater alga that originates from the Chlorellaceae family. In recent years, similar to spirulina, chlorella has exploded in popularity as a nutritional supplement, due to its rich and diverse nutritional profile.
Consisting of approximately 50-60% of protein, the algae superfood also offers sources of key vitamins and minerals, chlorophyll, and carotenoids (e.g. lutein). By grinding the superfood algae into a potent powder, the nutritional density of just a single teaspoon can provide you with your daily needs of many of these micronutrients.
Spirulina
Spirulina is an amazing, aquatic superfood. The planktonic, blue-green alga provides nutrients and oxygen for aquatic life. It has been a part of the human diet since being discovered by the Aztecs centuries ago. Because of the unique and expansive nutritional profile, the World Health Or...
Our spirulina is organic and 100% natural without any added ingredients. The algae superfood is delicately ground into a very fine powder, in a way that best protects the following nutrients:
Acerola
Acerola, or Malpighia emarginata, is a delicious cherry-like berry that is cultivated from the deep shrubs of South America, The Caribbean, and Mexico. Because of these tropical origins, it is sometimes referred to as the ‘Barbados Cherry’.
Like all of our products, our acerola powder is 100% organic and contains no additional ingredients. In addition, it is freeze-dried at very low temperatures of 40-50° to keep the full body of nutrients intact. The refreshing powder also provides several essential nutrients including vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, calcium, and iron from the natural cherry-like berry.
Camu Camu
Camu Camu fruit is a popular superfood with a rich nutrient profile and high antioxidant potential. These powerful berries bloom in the heart of the Peruvian rainforest on the river bush, Myrciaria dubia. The berries taste acidic when eaten in the whole form, so we have condensed them into a fine, nutritionally dense powder. When making the powder, we use freeze-drying methods, in place of dehydration to ensure that the nutritional quality of the berries remains intact.
But don't take our word for it, read below to see some reasons why the exotic fruit from the Amazon is so fantastic!
- Vitamin C
- Magnesium
- Potassium

Camu Camu
Our organic bee pollen is newly emerging, nutrient-dense nectar packed with B-vitamins, antioxidants, essential and fatty acids. It has become increasingly popular in the health community, providing an expansive and colorful nutritional profile with over 200 active compounds. At PLENT, we only use the most delicate cultivation methods, to best preserve the wide variety of enzymes and nutrients.
In Germany, Bee Pollen has been officially recognized as a medicinal food product by the Board of Health. Our polyfloral pollen is sourced from a range of different flower species, collected by foraging bees. Once attained, the bees combine this pollen with nectar or salivary solution. It is then transported, transferred to, and stored within the honeycombs of the beehive, and sealed by a layer of wax and honey. This is referred to as ‘bee bread’, and once sealed begins to ferment, to best preserve the nutritional profile. The bees really know what they’re doing huh?
