Superfoods are so packed with nutrients that
even small amounts can pack a powerful punch. While there
are no set criteria for determining what is and isn’t a
superfood, experts generally agree that items containing
extra-large doses of vitamins, minerals and micronutrients
qualify for the moniker.
I would have to write a whole new book
to explain the benefits of all the nutrients found in superfoods, but
there are a few main components that stand out and deserve
special mention.
We’ll start with antioxidants: These nutrients are
thought to ward off cancer by fighting free radicals and
helping to keep cells in good condition. Next up is fiber,
which aids in the prevention of diabetes and a wide range of
digestive problems, plus soluble fiber, which helps to
sweep arteries clean and keep your heart healthy. Vitamins and
minerals support your body’s systems in many ways;
without them, your skin, eyes, nerves, and organs would fail.
Finally, phytochemicals, which are minuscule components
that give plants their rich fragrances and delightful
colors also provide
a wide range of health benefits.

Red fruits and veggies are brimming with antioxidants such as anthocyanins and lycopene, helping the body to ward off illnesses such as heart disease and cancer. These vibrant red foods also decrease the risk of macular degeneration and stroke, and they help eliminate the free radicals that contribute to aging.
