A Superfood a Day Keeps the Doctor Away!
You’ve likely heard the term “superfood” used around the internet or in chit-chat, but most people don’t know what superfoods are exactly or how superfoods work.
Superfoods are a broad category of food, and there’s no exact defining line as to what makes one food “super” and another just okay. Though there is a generally accepted definition of the term, which in almost all cases refers to any type of food that provides some type of additional benefit to your health and wellbeing. Beyond, you know, just filling you up! Essentially, a type of food that can also perform some of the functions of medication, whether preventative or treatment.
Superfoods can fall into numerous categories, though among the most common are berries, leafy greens, mushrooms, and fish. Though not every berry, leaf, mushroom, or fish can be called a “superfood,” to get the distinction, the food generally needs to contain a high level of naturally occurring specific nutrients such as fiber, antioxidants, minerals, vitamins, and flavonoids.
