If you want to be a superhero, you need to eat superfoods. Life is so busy these days!

Why are they called superfoods?

You didn’t hear it from us (or maybe you did!), but a long time ago, in the 20th century, bananas were advertised as superfoods. Physicians endorsed bananas as a means to combat a number of ailments, including celiac disease and diabetes [  2  ].

Now, in the 21st century, a superfood is known as an amazing source of nutrients that promotes health and prevents sickness. Yes!

SUPERFOOD: SUPER-YOU

We get it, you want to achieve, you want to have an amazing life, you want to spend time with the people you love. Times are busy and it’s a good idea to eat superfoods that energize you and recharge you. Avoid emotional eating, eat healthy, and get some zzzzz’s. Remember: even Superman and Wonderwoman need rest.

A super you? Yes! You read that right! When you eat the right foods, you’ll be able to ride your bicycle, travel, do more work around the house (who wants to do that, but someone has to do it!), take care of your pets, and spend time in nature. All those wonderful things life offers need a currency: health. With health, you can have it all.
