Introducing favorite superfoods and their recipes is an occasional feature here at the Kitchen Table. By gradually “making friends” with the most healthy foods from nature and learning how to incorporate them in to your diet you should notice a remarkable improvement in your health.

Most superfoods are simply high in anti-oxidants and thus slow down the natural destructive process of the tissues in our bodies. Eating a diet rich in antioxidants will help to prevent aging as well as a myriad of other chronic complaints and inflammation.

Other superfoods are super because they are rich in certain vitamins, minerals or other nutrients that benefit the body in a significant way.

Everyone is always invited to add their favorite recipes using any superfood in the comments section for all to enjoy!

If you care to submit a recipe to be featured in future articles contact us!

Here are some of my favorite Super Foods:

  • Almonds, almond butter
  • Apples
  • Beets
  • Broccoli
  • Brown rice
  • Cherry
  • Chickpeas
  • Coconut

  • Ginger
  • Kale
  • Kidney beans
  • Oats
  • Papaya
  • Parsley
  • Peaches (organic)
  • Pears
  • Pine nuts
  • Pistachios
  • Pumpkin seeds (raw not cooked)

  • Raisin

  • Sesame butter or seeds (raw)
  • Spirulina
  • Tapioca
  • Walnuts (raw)
  • Watermelon
  • Zuchini

What am I leaving out? What is your favorite “superfood?”

    Hi Dr. Sundene,

    I didn’t see celery mentioned as a Super Food. You should consider adding it.

    I started eating celery with peanut-butter for lunch and after a couple days discovered my blood pressure had dropped about 15%; not to mention a little weight loss.
