How to Buy Superfoods on a Budget?


How to Buy Superfoods on a Budget


You need to ask question to yourself how often you’re going to eat this superfood? There’ve been times when I have purchased a product and have only used once and NEVER touched it. But other times I bought a product that integrates well with my daily dietary intake and I have bought them regularly, not minding spending the extra dollar to get the value I need. So the real question is how would you integrate this superfood into your life. Take a little bit of time and think about this.

What exactly is it? Before buying super food do you really think what that is or if you’ve tried before. You can go to the local whole food store and before buying a big box of superfood that you’ll probably put on shelf and forget it after taking once or twice, go for some samples and try the product out. Don’t shy away from asking the store if they have samples, sometimes they even have samples for free.

Buy the sizes that suit your lifestyle and not how much you can save on a big box. If something you’ll use several times in a week and you think you can get along with it for a long haul, go for a big pack. If you only intend to use it occasionally, e.g. when cooking something special, always go for a small portion.

Find out stores which provide good deals. Go online and compare various products offered by different companies and also look for free delivery as most companies do that. If something that you really use on a regular basis and can be delivered to your doorstep, will be great. Second thing on superfood website is to look for discount cards.

Please also note that superfoods are not replacement for a daily balanced diet that you get from fresh fruits, veggies and essential proteins.


Superfoods are not essential when you’re on a budget, focus should be on good nutrition and healthy lifestyle. Do not buy everything what everybody suggests especially when you’re online, let your own judgement about your dietary requirements and budget guide you to make intelligent decisions of buying superfoods.

MORINGA
Latest Health Superfood or Just a Fad?

Moringa plants, originally grown in Southeast Asia, are one of those amazing plants where every bit of them is useful; the leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds are edible, and the stem has medicinal purposes. It’s one of those trees that everyone should grow in a backyard or windowsill, because beyond its many uses, the tree grows quickly and is really hardy, not needing much water or any fertilizer. Moringa is most commonly and easily consumed as a powder made from leaves from the Moringa oleifera tree. If you’re looking to purchase the powder, be sure to get pure, ground dried leaves, rather than a supplement that mixes in other things. This powder can then be added to cooking, or used for tea or in shakes. However, as with other supplements , we don’t recommend consuming moringa just for the sake of it, but rather for the specific benefits and needs outlined below. NINE HEALTH BENEFITS AND USES OF MORINGA 1. Nutrition and antioxidants galore Moringa leaves contain p...

What is Matcha?

A hot cup of green tea with perhaps some warmed almond milk or lemon is sure to satisfy your soul and give you a gentle boost of caffeine. But beyond the realm of regular green tea, lies an incredible superfood known as matcha green tea . Perhaps you’ve heard of it, but if not, it’s time you met one of the most potent superfoods that exists, containing more nutrients than you could imagine. Matcha (pronounced MA-cha), has been part of the Japanese culture since the 12th century and is one of the most prized beverages in Japan, even to this day. Matcha green tea differs from regular green tea due to the way the leaves are produced.  All teas originate from the same plant known as Camellia Sinensis, which is a shrub native to China. The shrub produces all types of leaves for tea, including white, green oolong, black, and pu-erh tea. These types of teas differ in their antioxidant content along with their caffeine content and other nutritional properties, depending...

MORINGA
The new superfood that's trending amongst wellness types

The plant is a good source of vitamins C and A, and various minerals. Moringa was 2018's big new superfood, a “miracle tree” indigenous to the foothills of the Himalayas, but widely cultivated throughout India, south-east Asia and east Africa, too. Entirely edible, from root to bark, fast-growing and drought tolerant, with seeds that can purify dirty water, it’s such a valuable resource in many regions that the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has named it crop of the month. It is also, apparently, pretty good news for the rest of us: moringa has been touted by Time magazine as “the next quinoa”, while the Huffington Post reckons it’s “about to be huge, and you should know about it”. But some of the claims made for it – such as the assertion by “nutritionist and beauty expert” Kimberley Snyder that “it has twice the protein of spinach and three times as much iron” – should be treated with a degree of caution. A journal published by ...
