We are constantly being bombarded by a myriad of options, recommendations and prescriptions. But, there are some foods that eclipse all others in a major way. These are the Superfoods.

Packed with nutrients, vitamins and amazing antioxidants, these super-healthy food items are making waves in the world of fitness and health-conscious lifestyle.

A green Power Ranger duo, The Spinach and Kale Thanks to popeye, a lot of us are already aware of the super healthy (If not supernatural) benefits of spinach. But, the beneficial properties of the other dark, leafy greens are not adequately known. Take kale. It’s a nutritional powerhouse. With sky-high fiber levels and zero-fat, Kale acts as an effective detoxifier, fighting all the bad guys bullying around in your system. So, be it the bluish green kale or the bright green spinach, it’s wise to accommodate more greens in your dinner tables. A hulk of nutrients, The Whole Grains For starters, whole grains are a whole lot healthier than the refined alternatives. But, that’s definitely not everything. Containing a lot of fiber, a whole grain meal makes you feel fuller longer, thus helping you with weight management. Whole grains can help you keep your blood pressure and blood sugar under check, while effectively reducing your cholesterol levels too! Isn’t that a wholesome solution to the lifestyle diseases of 21st century? Impressed with the extraordinary benefits of these superfoods? We still haven’t covered plenty of others like Sweet Potatoes, Salmon and Almonds which deserve the ‘super’ status. Think of Avengers, The Justice league or The X-men. Superfoods belong right there, along with other superhero leagues that strive to save humanity from trouble. Except, they are not fictional.
