You Do Not Need Superfoods

“Superfood” is a marketing word, not a scientific food group. A powder or berry may contain nutrients, but it cannot make an otherwise poor diet healthy.

Spend where it counts

Choose foods you will eat regularly: oats, beans, vegetables, fruit, nuts, yogurt, fish, tofu, or other suitable staples. Frozen and canned options count too. A varied pattern is more useful than an expensive ingredient bought for one headline.

Be wary of cure claims

If a product promises to fix inflammation, balance hormones, or prevent disease on its own, ask for the actual human evidence. WHO guidance emphasizes the total pattern of adequacy, balance, moderation, and diversity, not a short list of miracle ingredients.
