They are also known for being packed with antioxidants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">There is currently no legal criteria or definition that defines a food as a superfood, but selected fruit, veggies, nuts, spices and even teas have been upgraded to superfood status. So how do you know if a food is a superfood, and which ones should your little ones be consuming?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">What are superfoods?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Superfoods are plant-based foods that have a very high nutritional density. This means that the food can provide the body with a lot of nutrients, without consisting of a lot of calories. One of the most important nutrients superfoods have to offer, is antioxidants. Antioxidants occur naturally in certain foods, and they are essential in neutralising free radicals (these are by-products of energy production and they are known for causing various health problems). Free radicals have been linked to cancer, heart disease, arthritis and various other conditions. Antioxidant molecules can decrease, and in some cases even reverse, the effect of free radicals on the body. Studies have shown that superfoods high in antioxidants also have the ability to decrease inflammation in the body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Superfoods are in no way magical, nor do they guarantee a body free from disease or health conditions, but when incorporated into a healthy diet, they can help strengthen the body\u2019s immune system and improve its functionality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8347\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk-249x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"249\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk-249x400.jpg 249w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk-768x1235.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk-637x1024.jpg 637w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk-696x1120.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk-1068x1718.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk-261x420.jpg 261w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/05\/Happy-Family-Supersmart-organic-bananas-magos-spinach-coconut-milk.jpg 1336w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 249px) 100vw, 249px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">What types of foods are superfoods?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Superfoods are usually plant-based: either fruits or vegetables. Some of the most common superfoods include:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Berries<\/span><\/strong><b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Berries have high levels of flavonoids\u00a0(plant chemicals found naturally in fruit and veg), which aid a healthy heart. The berries most commonly believed to be superfoods are blueberries, goji berries and acai berries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Mango<\/span><\/strong><b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Mangoes contain more than 20 different vitamins and minerals. Just one serving provides you with 100% of your daily required vitamin C intake!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Green leafy vegetables<\/span><\/strong><b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Think spinach, kale and broccoli. They are rich in vitamins A, C, E, and K, and many B vitamins. Leafy greens\u00a0also contain\u00a0an abundance of carotenoids, iron,\u00a0magnesium,\u00a0potassium, and\u00a0calcium.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Beets<\/span><\/strong><b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt;font-family: 'Verdana','sans-serif'\">Beets are very dense with nutrients, including potassium, magnesium, folate and vitamin C.
