Superfoods are dehydrated plant compounds made into powders for us to use, without much loss of those precious nutrients. They are amazing for boosting our immunity, and improving our daily vitamin and mineral intake. These four superfoods explained below, will improve every part of your life for the better. Not only your health, but also productivity levels and managing stress.

Before you start taking the superfoods, it is important to be aware of allergies, as well as making sure you have a well balanced diet. Powdered superfoods can help you create a healthier body, but it cannot replace a healthy diet. These superfoods may increase our energy levels, and fill up our daily vitamin and mineral needs. This is important since the soil our foods is grown on is mostly very depleted. Which decreases the amount of minerals found in the our fresh produce. Due to increasing rates of vitamine and mineral deficiencies we can either opt for a chemical vitamine supplement, or natural superfoods. The choice is yours.

Spirulina
This is one of my personal favorites. It is spirulina. Spirulina is a seaweed that contains most of the vitamins and minerals that we need on a day to day basis. Seaweeds are still high in minerals which can help our energy levels rise. The superfood does really have a taste, but it will make dishes green/blue. Personally I like to make a salad recipe- that uses spirulina in the dressing, from Greg Cipes, which I will link down below.

Moringa powder
the second superfood is moringa powder. Moringa powder has been used for centuries in the Indian culture as an ayurvedic medicine and I understand why. Moringa powder is a big big detox friend of mine, it may help our body fight of herbicides and pesticides. It can help our immune system get stronger, due to the mineral content that white blood cells need to thrive. And lastly, Moringa is wildly used to improve mental health by calming the nervous system so we can combat our anxiety, mood disorders and even depression.

Baobab powder
The third Superfood we will be talking about is baobab powder. It is a tree that mostly grows in Madagascar, made into powder, that has some serious health benefits. One being is it can strengthen our immune system a lot due to the high vitamin C, antioxidants and potassium content. Now this superfood may not just help us fight off sickness. It also contains a lot of fibre paired with it te antioxidants. Giving us a great combination that may heal many gut issues, help indigestion, while having a sweet taste. I have been using it in home made treats like nice creams, raw protein bars. So it can also satisfy your sweet tooth while healing your body!

Matcha
And the last one is matcha, now matcha is the most well known superfood out of the four listed in the article. If we open any social media app we at least see one iced matcha coming across our feed. But what Is so special about it? Matcha can be helpful to clear your mind, sharpen your focus and boost your energy due to the caffeine. But where coffee gives a blood sugar spike that usually lasts around 2-3 hours. Matcha does not spike as fast, which gives a nice energy boost, without the coffee crash after a few hours. Due to the caffeine and theanine, matcha also boosts your metabolism and it is loaded with antioxidants. Which is exactly why we call it a Super food!

Be aware of the quality of the matcha you buy. Not all matcha powders are made the same and this is usually seen in the brightness of the powder. Quality matters when we want to get the most benefits out of this drink.
