THE HEALTHIEST FOODS YOU NEVER HEARD OF

Everbody knows a few foods that are called Superfoods. These foods are full on nutrients and large amounts of phytochemicals. I am will to bet if you think for a minute you can come up with the 2 most popular. Ok time is up. Did you think of Broccoli and Blueberries? Congradulations but you have only scratched the surface.
Here are other foods that can be considered superfoods that are not to well known.
The first on my list is a fatty fish that gets no attention. Any guesses . Wrong its not Salmon.
Trout has large amounts of omega -3 fatty acids. These good fats have been known to be associated to a reduced rick of heart desease,certain forms of Arthritis, and Dementia.
Trout is just as easy to cook as Salmon.
Take a filet
sprinkle with lemon juice
add salsa
wrap in foil
cook in oven at 400 for 15 minutes and enjoy.
Do you know Enoki?
This musroom packs a great nutrtional punch.
This mushroom has long threadlike stalks each with a mini dome at the end.
Enoki contains a powerful protien that greatly enhaces the function of the immune system.
Sprinkle them on your salad or in soups for a somewhat fruity taste.
They are a common site in asian food stores.
Do you Gogi?
Do the Austrailians know something we dont?
Gogi berries are very popular as a snack down under.
They are high in antioxidants and can reduce free radical activity in the blood.
There are 3 grams of fiber in every 1/4 cup.
They can be a great addition to hot or cold cereal.
These are just a few of my suggestions to to you healthy eating.
Remember eating healty can be fun.
