Super Foods and Why They’re Super

I just wrote an article about “super foods”. Many of you have heard about many of these foods; if you are a patient of mine or have attended one of my lectures on nutrition, you have no doubt herd of them. Here are the foods I have deemed “super” in this article:

  • “Lean and Clean” Red Meat (93% lean, top round, or sirloin)
  • Wild-caught Salmon
  • Omega 3 Eggs
  • Low-fat, plain, Greek yogurt
  • Supplemental Protein
  • Spinach
  • Tomatoes
  • Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower)
  • Avocados
  • Mixed Berries
  • Oranges
  • Mixed Beans
  • Quinoa (Ancient grains)
  • Whole Oats (large flake)
  • Mixed Nuts
  • Olive oil
  • Fish oil
  • Flax seeds
  • Green tea

I wanted to write something down and explain why I have considered them as such so I could use this as a handout in my Portland, Oregon nutrition, chiropractic, hypnosis and functional medicine clinic, Optimum Function. I will most likely ad to this list but here’s a link so you can download it and go to the grocery store right now :)
