More About Superfoods…
The term ‘superfood’ refers to specific foods (or supplements) that are considered beneficial for their nutritionally-dense and nourishing properties. They can also help to promote overall health by promoting a strong immune system, boosting heart health and lowering cholesterol.
It can be difficult to get enough of all the nutrients we need in our diet alone which is why flat hair, dull skin and weak nails are common complaints. The good news is that our range of hair, skin and nail supplements can help to combat this. Natural supplements are available individually or as an easy-to-take all-in-one tablet.
What are superfoods?
The term ‘superfood’ generally refers to a group of foods that have high nutritional density. These foods are generally rich in beneficial compounds such as:
- Minerals
- Vitamins
- Antioxidants
- Healthy fats
- Fibre
The majority of superfoods are fruit and veg, but some other foods that make the cut include salmon, kefir and yoghurt.
Which superfood powder is best?
When it comes to choosing the right superfood powder or supplement, first consider exactly which aspect of your health you want to improve or assist. If you’re looking to improve digestion, for example, you may want to consider a powder high in fibre.
Or if you’re looking to increase energy and concentration throughout the day, you may need something that can provide extra protein or omega-3.
What are antioxidants?
Mostly found in plant foods, antioxidants are compounds that can help to protect your cells by neutralising or lessening free radicals. Free radicals have the potential to cause cell damage and can play a role in cancer, heart disease and autoimmune disorders.
Antioxidants can be found in a number of fruits and vegetables, such as blueberries, artichokes, and kale. Antioxidant vitamins include vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc and selenium.
Which fruit and veg are superfoods?
There are plenty of foods deserving of superfood status, packed with vitamins, minerals, healthy fats and fibre. Some of the most nutrient-dense foods include:
- Avocados - packed full of healthy fats, fibre and magnesium
- Berries - low in calories whilst being high in fibre and antioxidants
- Salmon - full of healthy fats and omega-3 fatty acids
- Garlic - antiviral and antibacterial properties
