The most nutritious superfoods in the world
First, let's clarify what we mean by the word superfoods..... Simply put, these foods have health benefits beyond those of more common foods. Pretty simple, huh? However, there are some differences of opinions from the information available online. Let’s clear this up by comparing apples to apples and oranges to oranges. Ok, we won’t literally look into the nutritional properties of apples and oranges because, as good as they are, they don’t quite make the grade for the kinds of foods we will be discussing. You will, however, learn about natural foods that are much more nutritious. These foods are more beneficial and less common than tomatoes and carrots – both of which I have seen described as “superfoods” online. Now, these two foods are obviously good for you, but they don’t quite deserve that title. The following is a list of some of the most impressive ones in the world…… Acai – truly one of the greatest. Harvested from the jungles of the Amazon. Noni– an ancient natural medicinal food with a rich history in Hawaiian and Asian cultures Goji – also known as Wolfberry, the Himalayan Goji Berry has benefited Chinese cultures for thousands of years because of its extensive nutritional benefits. Mangosteen – believed to have originated in the western part of the Malay Archipeligo, Mangosteen contains the powerful Xanthone compound. Seabuckthorn – grown primarily in China, Seabuckthorn is best known as nature’s multi-vitamin. Obviously, that was not meant to be a catch-all list. Those are just a few of the pound-for-pound best contenders in the world of natural foods. New! - We have compiled all of the Superfoods info in one place.
