Lately, I’ve been seeing the term “superfood” everywhere from goji berries to kale, even seaweed. It got me wondering: do these foods actually live up to the hype, or is it just a smart way to make us pay more for the same nutrients we could get elsewhere? I mean, isn’t it a bit like calling every shiny rock “precious” when, really, most of them are just… rocks?
I’m curious what others think. Have you noticed any real differences when adding so-called superfoods to your diet, or do you stick with more affordable, everyday options that get the job done? Would love to hear your take especially if you’ve got a philosophy on how we label things in the health world.
Totally get the hype, but honestly, a balanced diet beats any single “superfood”! I love kale smoothies, but they’re not magic just tasty and nutritious. Marketing loves flashy labels, but real health is about variety!
Ugh, reducing kale to a “superfood” is so mainstream. Real nutrition is about biodynamic, small-batch produce you’ve probably never heard of. Variety is basic try foraging for nuance.
