How to Eat Superfoods

Superfoods, certain foods said to contain essential nutrients and health benefits in large percentages, are good for you and taste good too. Superfoods include blueberries, garlic, tomatoes, oats, mangoes, eggs, honey and more. Cod liver oil is also considered a superfood, even though it's technically a supplement. Eat superfoods as part of your daily diet to improve health. Here's how to enjoy superfoods.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Read about the different superfoods to learn the benefits of each. There are several different superfoods lists but they all overlap, sharing many of the same items. Look for a list on WebMD and Wild Oats (see Resources below).

2. Make a list of the superfoods you like and post it on your refridgerator or near your desk as a reminder. Bring the superfoods list with you to the grocery store and stock up on the best.

3. Try to incorpoarte at least one of the superfoods into each meal or snack. Have a handful of blueberries at breakfast, eat egg salad at lunch, and drizzle extra virgin first cold press olive oil over your dinner salad.

4. Have a contest with your family members to see who can create the most superfoods-dense menu. Include several of your favorite superfoods in each dish to be competititve.

5. Make superfoods snacks to take to work or school and have on hand for between meals. Dried apricots, whole oatmeal granola and a banana all qualify.

6. When eating out, choose dishes with one or more superfoods--such as a garden salad with broccoli and spinach.
