WHAT ARE SUPERFOODS?
Superfoods are foods, mostly plant
based, that are thought to be
nutritionally dense.
Some of the nutrients that certain
superfoods contain include all
important antioxidants which are free
radical scavengers, thought to ward off
cancer, prevent diabetes, assist with
digestive problems, contain healthy
fats, and prevent heart disease. The
deep, rich colours present in berries
come from phytochemicals which
have numerous health benefits.
Maqui
Maqui berries are a dietary staple of
the long-living Mapuche Indians of
Chile. Brimming with age-avenging
antioxidants, this deep purple super fruit
may be found as freeze-dried power,
processed to retain all the health-giving
properties of its natural form.
Dandelion greens
These bitter leafy greens may just become
your preferred salad greens.
The benefit is due to the bitter taste.
It switches on our digestive juices,
which helps to detoxify the liver.
Dandelion greens are also an excellent
source of vitamins A, C and K, and a
good source of fibre, calcium, manganese,
iron and B vitamins.
Sprouted foods
When a food is sprouted, it becomes alive
and its nutrients multiply. Sprouted foods
are high in B vitamins, high in minerals
like potassium, iron and calcium and the
protein is far more bioavailable.
