Health, diet and fitness is a very elusive area of scholarship. Elusive, ambivalent, dynamic, and sometimes, dogmatic - but only till the new round of studies are released.Amongst the hype of the contemporary 'health revolution', it seems that something that is good for you one day, is not the next.
One must stay vigilant when approaching new diet trends, especially buzz terms like 'super-foods'.
Today's Daily Quota is a long list of so-called 'super-foods', complete with nutritional benefits and latin terminology.
I doubt that this list is comprehensive (it's missing stuff like kale, seaweed and a variety of nuts), but it is quite informative. Upon my own limited cross-referencing, the nutritional information seems to be accurate, and it even provides some examples of respective products (ofcourse it does).
A lot of this stuff can't be found anywhere, which does kinda suck. However, it's a great bit of information next time you're strolling around Woolworths Newtown.
Some food for thought for your Monday afternoon.
Pun most definitely intended.
