Scientists have long marveled how some people in certain countries live remarkably long, healthy lives while we, in the west, suffer from high rates of chronic diseases and other health problems.

Computer analysis has enabled researchers to determine which populations are the healthiest and live the longest and analyze what these populations have in common.

The results point to one key factor; diet. The healthiest groups eat certain foods in much higher quantities - these foods have come to be called super foods.

Common problems such as lack of energy, poor skin and hair, and dramatic mood swings as well as serious problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure and certain cancers can also now be traced to poor nutrition.

Scientists have analyzed the super foods that these healthy populations eat and found they contain hundreds of micro-nutrient compounds, vitamins and antioxidants. A growing body of research from laboratory and human studies suggests that these nutrients work best in concert with each other, or synergistically.

Bottom line: Giving your body the right micronutrients in the right combination can make a huge difference to how long you live, how much energy you have, how often you get sick and even whether you get certain types of cancer or heart disease.

The problem of course is that we all live busy complicated lives. In a world of processed food and limited time, it is unrealistic to think we can eat the optimum diet including all of these super foods.

Enter San Diego, CA based www.superfoodsrx.com. This new company has addressed this problem by developing a daily nutritional supplement designed to provide the same mix of super-nutrients that are found in the so called super foods.

Dr. Steven Pratt is the developer of this remarkable nutritional system. A best selling author of nutrition and longevity books, Dr. Pratt also consults for top athletes and is a senior staff member at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California.

Just how remarkable is the supplement. Dr Pratt commented, “The nutrients and antioxidants we use in SuperFoodsRx have been shown to decrease symptoms of fatigue and to increase the effectiveness of dieting by helping to reduce the appetite and boost metabolism. They have also been linked to a lower incidence of cancer, diabetes and heart disease. There are several key micro-nutrients we included that can help to improve your complexion and strengthen hair and nails and the premium omega 3 found in SuperFoodsRx has been proven to reduce stress and mood-swings and improve memory and focus.”

The suspect in a triple homicide at the WoodCliff Estates apartment complex May 6 was captured Wednesday in New York, police said.

Horvil “Trix” Lebrick, 31, was arraigned Wednesday on fugitive charges in New York. He is awaiting extradition to Connecticut.

New York police detectives and police officers surrounded his home in Brooklyn about 7:30 a.m. Wednesday, police said.

He surrendered without incident about three hours later, said East Hartford police spokesman Hugo Benettieri.

Lebrick will be charged with felony murder and home invasion when he gets to Connecticut. He is currently being held in New York.

East Hartford police detectives have traveled to New York and interviewed Lebrick, said Benettieri.

He said police are still investigating the incident at 115 Nutmeg Lane, where Andrew and Andraw Moses, 21-year-old twins from Brooklyn, and Shawnalee Hudson, 26, were gunned down.

Police believe Lebrick went to East Hartford apartment with the twins, perhaps to collect a debt, then fled when his two alleged conspirators were killed. A man who arrived to help Hudson was wounded by gunfire.

In addition to felony murder and home invasion, Lebrick faces charges of first-degree burglary, first-degree assault, attempted first-degree robbery, and conspiracy charges. Bail on the warrant is set at $3 million, police said. The warrant has also been sealed. A judge signed the warrant Friday.

Anyone with information about the triple homicide is asked to call East Hartford police at 860-528-4401, Det. William Turley at 860-291-7605 or Det. Jodi Eberl at 860-291-7545.
