Top 5: Superfoods To Live By

Essential Superfoods For Every Man

The term “superfood” is touted as some sort of scientific concept, when in reality it is mostly used out of context. It is typically used to describe some sort of food with a high nutrient or chemical content that promotes health benefits, with very few negative properties such as saturated fat or artificial ingredients. Keep in mind there is no legal definition of a superfood -- which leads to all sorts of outrageous marketing claims. Typically these duperfoods are expensive, hard to obtain and provide marginal benefits unless consumed in excessive amounts.

The real superfoods are out there. They do exist. And for us blokes, they can be easily introduced into our diets without the stigma of eating “like a hippie," parting with tons of cash, or spending hours trawling through your local organic produce store. These five foods are easy to find, cheap to buy and contain a fantastic nutritional profile in terms of macronutrients (carbohydrates, protein and fat) vitamins, minerals and other assorted health benefits.
