The term "super food" is thrown around quite a lot lately and it might start to get confusing if you're online often reading conflicting stories on the internet. My definition of a super food is a food that provides you with a plethora of vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants, often unique to the specific food that you're eating, without also providing you with a large amount of negative aspects / side effects. I've talked in the past about the importance of including a variety of colours in your diet, each colour associated with a fruit or vegetable provides you with similar nutrients and vitamins while also including antioxidants that each individual fruit or veg provides. I wanted to share with you guys a list of some of the super foods I regularly consume, what's great about them, and how easy it is to include them regularly in your diet. :D
I've done several posts on a variety of other fruits and veggies and their super food potential so definitely take a look through some of my older posts for some super food inspiration. These are simply the ones that I engage with regularly and the reasons why they are so fantastic.
When thinking "super food", look for vibrancy in your fruits and veg. Anything that is vibrant in colour and rich, likely contains a plethora of antioxidants and body benefits. Eating a variety of fruits and veggies everyday is the best way to keep your body healthy and flourishing. Switch things up and keep your palette surprised and your body nourished! What kinds of fruits and veggies do you guys eat often? What are their benefits? HAPPY VEG
