So full of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and more - they’re incredibly potent in comparison to other foods pound for pound.
If superfoods are fairly new to you, here are 7 of our top reasons to fall in love with them!
1. They’re Nutrient Rich!
With mineral-depleted soils and year-old fruit and vegetables in our supermarkets, we need foods that are loaded with nutrients to get everything we need. That’s where superfoods come in! They’re from some of the most remote, untouched locations of the world, and are packed full of goodness in every bite!

Thanks to the overflowing, highly absorbable amount of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other phytochemicals, they help fight and prevent a whole host of chronic diseases! Move over synthetic multi-vitamins!
3. You Only Need A Little To Gain A Lot!
Most superfoods are so incredibly potent that you need only the smallest amounts as part of your daily diet to significantly boost your nutrition! That makes them some of the most cost-effective, potent sources of nutrients you can get, in the most readily absorbed and unprocessed form!

Food Matters Recommended Superfood Greens are known for their ultra-potent antioxidant content and alkalizing properties which combine to help reduce redness, inflammation, puffiness, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, and rough dry skin. Giving you that gorgeous healthy glow from the inside out!
5. They Give You Loads Of Energy!
Want to know our secret for bubbling energy no matter what life throws at us? Despite a healthy lifestyle overall, we supplement with energizing Food Matters Recommended Superfood Greens when we need an extra boost! If it’s not oxygenating greens and algae, or metabolism-boosting seaweeds, it’s one of the most stimulating of all - raw cacao!
6. They Help You Feel Amazing!
When your body is flooded with goodness, you can’t help but notice a difference! Our favorite Food Matters Recommended Superfood Greens for an instant pick me up are those that are green as they’re extremely rich in chlorophyll! Chlorophyll has a very similar molecular structure to human blood, increases hemoglobin when consumed. Higher amounts of hemoglobin in the bloodstream means more oxygen-rich blood, the first and most important element that cells need to thrive!
