Super-Duper Foods



Some foods are superheroes on their own. They are packed with power nutrients that keep your body healthy and functioning perfectly. Here are three super-antioxidants that you should have at the top your food list.

#1 Blueberries are perhaps the most powerful of all berries in terms of antioxidant content: flavonoids are known to help protect against urinary tract infections and cataract in the eyes. They are also known to protect against heart diseases and high in fibre which enhances the digestion process.

#2 Cranberries are fibre-rich berries that contribute to better digestion, and are also known for preventing urinary tract infections too! Some researchers believe that they possibly reduce the risk of stomach ulcers and help decrease Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) cholesterol levels.

#3 Green Tea Extract
is said to have the highest amount of poly phenols (a bioflavanoid) and a high level of ECGC (an antioxidant), ECGC in green tea extract helps boost your metabolism to stay in shape, protects against digestive problems, and lowers cholesterol.
