There have been many new fads introduced in today’s culture
for health benefits, weight loss, and overall glowing beauty.
One that embodies them all is “superfoods”. Superfoods are
foods that have been known to increase health and help support a weight loss
while helping your skin glow. They are common foods that have been researched
and been found to increase an overall well-being.
Blueberries are one of the top superfoods, it is not only a
great antioxidant, but it helps to increase the longevity of the brain’s memory
function. Spinach, another superfood, is rich in Vitamin K that supports heart
and bone function; it also plays a key role in enriching healthy hair and nail
growth.
One of the superfoods that not only is good for your soul, but
also is now found as helping your blood and heart function more effectively is
dark chocolate. Finding chocolate with as much cacao, the root of chocolate, is
the best way to reach the optimum amounts of benefits from this yummy treat.
Beta-carotene and potassium that are known to boost eyes,
bones, skin, and heart health can be found in another superfood, pumpkin.
Salmon is another omega rich superfood that can help prevent Alzheimer’s.
One of the doctor’s that Oprah recommends, Dr. Perricone,
speaks about his top picks for “superfoods”. They include acai, barley, beans,
lentils, buckwheat, green foods, hot peppers, nuts, seeds, sprouts, and kefir.
These were his choices because of their “brain-beauty connection”. All of these
Perricone chosen superfoods help regulate a healthy metabolism, prevent
inflammation, support the digestive system, help fight against cancer, heart
disease, and harmful toxins that can cause diseases and cause organ failure.
When choosing the superfoods that are not only accessible
to you and your wallet, find the ones that personally benefit you and create
your own top superfoods list. Health and beauty all deal with a sense of
balance and the importance of caring about your body and taking the extra step
further to put the best foods, no matter how super, into your system to help
keep you functioning healthy and beautiful.
