Superfoods


Add meaning to your daily eating rituals by knowing what vitamins are in the types of foods you eat. There are some foods in particular that have extraordinary nutrients in which we can all benefit from.  It is very important to choose wisely. Conventionally, many eat foods based on instant gratification,  without caring about the long-term effects of what they have eaten. Taste usually comes before health and it is one important factor to think about. Having fun with it! Going to your local farmers market and bringing home local, fresh, and health ingredients is a great way to get in touch to your "healthy side."Some of the fruits and vegetables that are on the top of the list of SUPERFOODS include: spinach, blueberries, bell peppers, apples,. . . . . .
Pics I took at my local farmers market! YUM ;D




For more information I highly recommend reading this article by Darya Pinto, a scientist and health blogger. 
Also check out this book, "The Worlds Healthiest Foods in The World" by George Mateljan. 


I leave you with a quote by the beloved Audrey Hepurn 
‎"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek 
out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the 
hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his/her fingers through it 
once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never
walk alone."
