What Are Superfoods?


Listen Later

In today's episode, we're talking about superfoods.

Do you eat foundational foods that are loaded with nourishment on a consistent basis? If yes, then go about adding in what I would call “super supportive” foods to your routine.

Some of the extra foods I would include are:

Broccoli sprouts

Blueberries

Raspberries

Blackberries

Brazil nuts

Purple potatoes or red potatoes

Sweet potatoes

Beets

When looking for a food that is loaded with that extra bit of phytochemical, disease-proofing power you want to take a look at the flesh.

If the flesh is red, orange, blue, or purple all the way through, you are getting a food loaded with phytochemicals.

I would also put avocados and olives into the super supportive food category as they are hyperdigestable, loaded with life sustaining fats.

Olives in particular are a great source of Vitamin E which many are lacking. They also when added to many high vegetable meals, greatly increase the satisfaction and satiety factor of the meal.

Finally I want to remind you of the benefits of garlic. Garlic has antimicrobial properties, overall immune enhancing and balancing properties. I mean garlic is a super supportive food.

Finally, eat your egg yolks. So many of us are deficient in iodine because we are not eating seaweed or using iodized salts.
