Healthy Super Foods You Should Try

Super food is probably a term you have heard before. It is used to describe foods that have vitamins and nutrients that in a higher concentration or number compared to other foods. Below are some of the top super foods and why they are referred to as super foods. Some of them you probably have not heard of and some of them you probably have.

The number one super food that most people have already heard of is the acai berry. This fruit offers a super high concentration of antioxidants. It also has some protein and healthy doses of dietary fiber and omega fatty acids. It is a very nutritious food and one of the most popular health supplements in the world. If you live outside the United States, you can visit the Acai Berry Australia or Acai Berry UK pages for specific information.

The second super food I want to talk about is pistachio nuts. These little nuts are called the skinny nut and are really good for you. They have high amounts of fiber, antioxidants, and protein. The pistachio nut is called the skinny nut because it is low in calories – a serving of about 50 nuts has only 160 calories. They are a great snack by themselves or they can be added to salads, muffins, cereal, and lots of other snacks and meals.

I want to close by talking about two more super foods. One is a fruit often compared to the acai berry and the other is a common nut you probably have heard of before.

The first is the pomegranate. It is full of antioxidants and has a very exotic flavor. The high level of antioxidants, second only to the acai berry, is why this fruit has become popular.

The next super food is the walnut. There is a good chance you know about walnuts and have even used them cooking, but you may not know about the health benefits. They are an excellent source of antioxidants, vitamins, fiber, and plant based protein. There is also a concentration of omega 3 fatty acids that is higher than other nuts.

So where can you get these super foods? When yo uare looking for acai berries, the best thing to do is look for a supplement you can buy because they spoil quickly and aren’t usually shipped very far from the Amazon. Pomegranates are now becoming fairly common and available in many grocery stores. Walnuts are available in almost any grocery store. Pistachios are less common than walnuts, but you can usually find them at your local grocery store.

Whether you are looking for a healthy snack or an antioxidant boost, these fruits and nuts are a great addition to your diet.
