Pick Of The Bunch – Superfoods To Keep You Fighting Fit

Did you know that the pomegranate is a superfood? You can get your anti-aging, anti-stress fix easily with a daily helping of PomeGreat PurePlus juice and with PomeGreat we’re giving you the heads up on another four fantastic superfoods every week…

Tea

Can the humble cup of builder's tea really be a superfood? Well yes. Both black and green teas have powerful anti-oxidant qualities and green tea has been linked to lower cholesterol. Plus as little as one cup a day can impact positively on your health. But remember you won’t get any of the benefits if you add three spoonfuls of sugar to your tea and dunk half a packet of biscuits in it!

Brazil nuts

All nuts are packed with fibre, minerals and vitamins but brazil nuts in particular are a great source of selenium that’s known to help push back the onset of  Alzheimir’s disease. A handful of  nuts every day will boost your defences against heart disease.

Salmon

This fish is an excellent source of proteins and minerals and like all oily fish it is rich in omega 3 fats. Having one meat free day a week and eating fish can help you develop a greater resistance to heart disease. Plus omega 3 fats also fight the onset of dementia.

Broccoli

The king of superfoods this veg is rich in antioxidants, vitamins and folic acid which is vital in your body's fight against heart disease. Forget about carrots this green vegetable is the well-kept secret to healthy peepers.
