In other words, there is no such thing as Superfoods.<\/p><p>The term was coined for marketing purposes to influence food trends and to sell specific products (nutritious foods believed to have positive health effects), and <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/healthy-diet\/nutritional-supplements\/\">nutritional supplements<\/a>.<\/p><p>However.<\/p><p>Although no food can provide all the nutrients our bodies need &#8211; we know some foods are healthier than others. For example, lettuce is healthier than French fries, salmon fillet is healthier than burgers, and yoghurt sauces are healthier than butter or flour sauces.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>Over the years, studies have shown that healthy eating habits can reduce the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and some types of cancers.<\/p><p>And.<\/p><p>Dietary patterns such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/diets\/mediterranean-diet\/\">Mediterranean diet<\/a> have shown significant health benefits and reduced risks of chronic diseases.<\/p><p>This article is about what qualifies a food as a superfood, what the most common superfoods are and what they do for our health and well-being.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h2>What are Superfoods?<\/h2><p>The term &#8220;superfood&#8221; has no precise origin, and its usage has changed noticeably over the years. In the early 21st century, it gained considerable popularity as a marketing term for foods with excellent nutritional value and health benefits.<\/p><p>One of the first mentions of the term &#8216;superfoods&#8217; was in the book &#8216;SuperFoods&#8217; by Dr. Steven G. Pratt and Kathy Matthews in 2004, which published a list of foods that were considered at the time to be highly nutritious and beneficial to health.<\/p><p>Although this book helped to popularise the term, it should be noted that the concept of nutritious and health-promoting foods has been around for centuries.<\/p><p>Over the years, the meaning of &#8220;Superfood&#8221; has expanded considerably and has become a common term in the marketing of various weight loss products, diet products and nutritional supplements.<\/p><p>Here are 5 common definitions of superfoods based on how the term is commonly used:<\/p><ul><li>Foods that are extremely rich in nutrients (high in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants).<\/li><li>Foods that are particularly beneficial to health, for example &#8211; reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes.<\/li><li>Food with high <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/healthy-diet\/antioxidants\/\">antioxidant content<\/a>, which helps fight oxidative stress and inflammatory processes in the body.<\/li><li>Natural and raw or minimally processed foods (not <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/healthy-diet\/healthy-and-unhealthy-food\/\">highly refined<\/a> or saturated with various additives such as preservatives, flavour enhancers, emulsifiers, etc.).<\/li><li>Foods that provide maximum nutrients with minimum calories.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>As you can see, there are options.<\/p><p>In other words, almost any food, unless highly processed, can be called a superfood. \ud83d\ude0a And in some cases, it is also used to refer to ultra-processed products, such as many nutritional supplements.<\/p><p>Therefore.<\/p><p>Rely less on advertising, but read the ingredients and try to evaluate them critically.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h2>What makes a food a superfood?<\/h2><p>The closest definition to superfoods for me is &#8211; foods that provide maximum nutrients with minimum calories and are particularly beneficial to health.<\/p><p>In other words, not every healthy food is a superfood. Only products that:<\/p><ol><li>Are rich in nutrients but low in calories.<\/li><li>Provide outstanding health benefits.<\/li><\/ol><p>And.<\/p><ol start=\"3\"><li>These health benefits go far beyond what we would expect based on the nutritional profile of these products alone.<\/li><\/ol><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>To ensure this, superfoods need to be rich in:<\/p><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/healthy-diet\/antioxidants\/\">Antioxidants<\/a> &#8211; natural compounds that protect the body&#8217;s cells from damage and can reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer and other diseases.<\/li><li>Minerals (calcium, potassium, iron, etc.) which play an important role in various physiological processes in the body, including enzyme function, hormone regulation and general health maintenance.<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/healthy-diet\/what-vitamins-and-why-do-we-need\/\">Vitamins<\/a> &#8211; organic compounds that play an essential role in various functions of the body, including metabolism, the maintenance of the immune system and overall health.

But instead of iceberg lettuce and other light green lettuces, it is better to choose dark leafy vegetables that are rich in vitamins A, C and E, high in vitamin K, which is good for bone health, and folate (vitamin B9), which promotes heart health.<\/p><p>For example, one cup of kale provides 550 micrograms (mcg) of vitamin K, more than 680 per cent of a person&#8217;s daily requirement.

However, more research is needed to say this for sure.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>4 Legumes<\/h3><p>Legumes are a food group consisting of beans (including soya), lentils, peas, peanuts and alfalfa.<\/p><p>Legumes deserve to be a superfood because they are rich in plant-based proteins essential for cell renewal (which is why legumes can serve as meat substitutes for vegetarians).<\/p><p>Legumes are also a rich source of B vitamins, various minerals and fibre.<\/p><p>Studies have shown that legumes are very healthy, for example &#8211; they <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25061763\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">can improve the control of type 2 diabetes and reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels<\/a>.<\/p><p>Regular consumption of legumes can also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4608274\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contribute to maintaining a healthy weight<\/a> as they improve\/ prolong satiety.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>5 Nuts and seeds<\/h3><p>Nuts and seeds are rich in fibre, plant-based proteins and healthy fats.<\/p><p>They also contain various plant compounds with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can protect against oxidative stress.<\/p><p>Studies have shown that <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/29528772\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">eating nuts and seeds can protect against heart diseases<\/a>.<\/p><p>The following can be considered as superfoods:<\/p><ul><li>Nuts &#8211; almonds, pecans, pistachios, walnuts, cashews, Brazil nuts, macadamia nuts.<\/li><li>Peanuts &#8211; technically a legume, but usually considered a nut.<\/li><li>Seeds &#8211; sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, linseeds, hemp seeds, Milk Thistle Seeds.<\/li><\/ul><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><p>Interestingly, although nuts and seeds are calorie-dense, <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/14574348\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">some kinds of nuts contribute to weight loss when included in a balanced diet<\/a>.<\/p><pre>\u00a0<\/pre><h3>6 Kefir and yoghurt<\/h3><p>Kefir and natural yoghurt without additives contain protein, calcium, B vitamins, potassium and <a href=\"https:\/\/dietsabc.com\/en\/healthy-diet\/what-are-probiotics\/\">probiotics<\/a>.<\/p><p>Kefir contains more probiotic strains than yoghurt, making it better for digestive and gut health.<\/p><p>Although kefir is traditionally made from cow&#8217;s milk, lactose-intolerant people usually do not have problems with it because the bacteria (probiotics) ferment the lactose.<\/p><p>Kefir and yoghurt have been linked to cancer prevention and boosting the immune system. The probiotics they contain can help lower blood pressure and cholesterol, improve digestion and have a beneficial anti-inflammatory effect.<\/p><p>But.<\/p><p>Choose fermented dairy products without added sugar and other additives, for example &#8211; plain yoghurt or Greek yoghurt.
