Many people are now familiar with my Brahmananda Balls. They actually evolved out of what my father and I affectionately call The Swamp-water, which is a super-intelligent smoothie. I've been drinking superfoods in a smoothie for the past 19 years or more!! Back in those days I had far less options for ingredients. I use to use spirulina, ginseng, royal jelly (from bees), and bee pollen. Read on to see the list of powerful ingredients that goes into my Swamp Water now.

Which of these ingredients you have on hand and which you use is all entirely over to you. This recipe is simply the gist of how I make this drink. You can mix and match as you like. Include everything here or skip a few. Thes ones I consider most important are at the top of the list. All ingredients are certified organic (free of chemical sprays and fertilisers) and in a raw/living state:

• 800 to 1000 ml (a little less than 1 quart) of pure untreated or filtered water
• 2 tspn - Bee Pollen (take care if you have bee allergies)
• 1 to 2 tbls - Raw cocoa nibs
• 1 - 2 tbls - Raw agave syrup or Raw honey (my preference, because it has far greater intelligence over Agave syrup)
  OR instead of a sweetener, use one ripe organic banana (my preference)
• 1 - 3 tspn - Fresh cold-pressed hemp seed oil
• 1 tspn - Raw extra virgin coconut oil
• 3 tbls - Sprouted sunflower seeds two days of sprouting, so just a tiny stem coming out)
• a handful of soaked and lightly sprouted almonds
• 3 tspn - Raw Gogi berries (Lycium berries). You can soak these overnight in the refridgerator for best results
• 1 - 3 tbls - Hawaiian spirulina powder
• 1 tbls - Raw Maca Root powder
• 1 tbls - Raw Mesquite powder
• 1 tbls - Raw Lacuma powder
• 1/8 tspn - Cayenne pepper powder (enough to give it a little zing, but not too much!)
• 1/2 tspn organic ginger powder
  OR 1/2 to 1 inch (1.5 to 3cm) of fresh, skinned ginger root
• 1/4 tspn - Cardamon powder (optional)
• A few tbls of cold ground (raw) hemp seed powder (a.k.a Hemp protein powder) - enough to get correct consistency

So, that's quite a list of goodies... all of which will in-form your body with a great deal of the intelligent wisdom of nature from many locations. Talk about plugging into the global consciousness of the Earth! The Himalayas, the Peruvian Andes, the Amazon jungle, the deserts of Mexico, the deep ocean waters off of the coast of Hawaii, and more.

Here are some tips and instructions:

1. These are not exact teaspoon (tspn) and tablespoon (tbls) amounts. Meaning that I don't smooth them off to an exact measure. Rather they are heaped, except for the liquids of course.
2. If using Agave syrup--Use only enough to give the right amount of sweetness. I don't suggest making this drink overly sweet. This detracts from the overall experience of all the other subtle and sublime flavours. We are not making a soda drink; rather it's a super vitality drink. You might find you can get away with no agave, or you might like to add a little raw, green, powered stevia leaf as a sweetener. Stevia has, among other benefits, the added advantage of helping the body balance its blood sugar levels!
   Raw honey is, I think, the best sweetener to use because it has a much higher level in intelligence. Although if you have issues with your blood sugar and need a low GI sweetener, then go with Stevia or Agave.
   Better yet... use a ripe organic banana. I usually buy a heap of them, let them rippen to perfection, then skin and freeze them in a ziplok bag ready for use. Add some hot water to the mix if using froozen bananas, otherwise the coldness will make the drink harder to digest.
3. The spices I have listed: I often add one or more of these spices. Perhaps no more than 1/4 to 1/2 (not heaped) teaspoon of whichever ones I am using. The cayenne powder is something I like to add a little of as it gives the drink a little zing, helps digestion, improves blood circulation, and it assists the body in distributing the intelligence and nutrients from the other ingredients throughout the body.
4. Make this drink in a blender or if you want to make a smaller amount use a Tribest Personal Blender. Reduce the amounts above accordingly and to your liking.

It is my preference to have this drink in the morning. I make about a litre of it (about 1 quart). I then don't get hungry until about 2pm.

Watch out! This drink has literally changed the lives of many people I know around the world. I's a powerful concoction, one service of which will give your body more nutrients, natural intelligence, and powerful vitality than the average America is likely to get in a month of eating. This stuff is rocket fuel.

Be sure to add ginger to it. This helps with digesting it and getting the most from it.

P.S. For people concerned about only buying and eating locally produced foods...
I agree with this idea in principle, and I add my own take to that. Check out whatever other articles and audio recordings you can find on this site pertaining to super foods and intelligent nutrition for further insight.
