12/14/2018 // Cassie B. // Views

Eating the wrong foods can make us sick, but choosing the right ones can heal us and help prevent disease. However, many people struggle to eat enough of the right foods each day to get all of the nutrients they need. If you want to get more mileage out of your meals, superfoods are the way to go. In fact, you can mix the following 11 superfoods together in a blender to give your body a nutrient boost and optimize your health.

1.    Turmeric

Let’s start with one of the most powerful superfoods you can find: turmeric. The curcumin in it is so good at fighting inflammation that it’s being hailed for its potential to stave off depression, diabetes, arthritis, and even cancer.

2.    Spirulina

This plant protein source gives your body the iron and calcium it needs to keep your systems running smoothly, and it will also give you some strength and energy to get you through your day.

3.    Moringa

This complete plant offers all of the essential amino acids your body needs to maintain its cells, whether it needs to grow new ones or repair cells that have been damaged. Also known as horseradish tree, its natural leaf powder fights inflammation and free radicals, protects the liver and heart, and supports brain health.

4.    Wheatgrass

It’s said that wheatgrass is so nutrient-dense that a mere shot of it can take the place of a plate full of vegetables. With over 100 unique nutrients and vitamins, it’s the perfect addition to your superfood drink.

5.    Chlorella

Considered one of the world’s most potent superfoods, this protein-filled green algae can help your body flush out heavy metals, and it also provides your brain with the healthy fats it needs to stay sharp. It contains an impressive and very thorough nutrient profile that includes chlorophyll, antioxidants, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals.

6.    Matcha

This green tea powder has even more antioxidants than regular green tea. It is particularly rich in EGCG, a catechin that can prevent tumors and cancer. It can also provide focus and relaxation while regulating your appetite, reducing stress, and evening out hormone levels.

7.    Beets

You might be surprised to see beets on the list, but raw beet juice gives you a nice dose of manganese and folate. It can also help improve vascular dysfunction and overall circulation.

8.    Lemon

This citrus fruit can help to alkalize your body and improve pH. It’s a great source of vitamin C, which reduces your risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease.

9.    Mint

Mint does more than add a refreshing note to your superfood drink; it also helps with digestion. It has a surprising amount of antioxidants, and it’s also an anti-inflammatory.

10.    Indian ginseng (Ashwagandha)

Indian ginseng, also known as ashwagandha, can help your body deal with all manner of stress, whether it’s the type of life stress that causes depression and anxiety or stress stemming from environmental toxins.

11.    Coconut water

Use coconut water as a base for your superfood drink to give your body some much-needed potassium. Full of electrolytes, minerals, and vitamins, it will keep your body hydrated and happy.

Why not stock up on these superfoods and start experimenting to find a ratio that suits your tastes? You can also add it to a blender with some ice and fruit (or frozen fruit) to create a superfood smoothie that will give your body what it needs to stand up to the stresses and toxins of everyday life.
