Here’s a great excuse to gorge on your mixed berry pie, chia seed pudding, spirulina shake, and turmeric ginger tea! Well, kind of. Yep, they're all certified superfoods.
And here are some of the most amazing photos to make you reach for that second serving of your favorite superfood for a healthier and fitter you.
- Chia. Ch-ch-ch-chia! Yep, this little seed is the same as those adorable little ceramic animal planters of the 90s! But don’t worry, the nutritious part is not the clay pot. Chia seeds are actually loaded with the most essential fatty acids of any known plant. Plus, one serving of the stuff is loaded with magnesium, iron, calcium, and potassium.
- Baobab. One of the reasons baobab has been dubbed a superfruit is due to its concentration of certain minerals, including iron. This mineral is a key component in hemoglobin, which transports oxygenated blood throughout our body. This can prevent anemia and provide us with a major energy boost, so baobab fruit in any form can be enjoyed for a quick pick me up!
