Defining Superfoods

Superfood.

The word evokes a myriad of blissful emotions for those who are in the know, a dabble of confusion for those who are not, and a false sense of understanding for th
ose who have acquired their education on the subject from Reader's Digest.

Let's consult Apple's widget dictionary, s
hall we:

Superfood; (noun) a natural food regarded as especially beneficial because of it's nutrient profile or it's health-protecting qualities

H
ey, not too shabby!

So, what else? Lots of foods these days are considered natural, so what do the happy folk here at Superfood City believe?

Since the topic of Superfoods will be covered from as many angles as possible, and in more depth than ever before, we would like to be as open as a flower in the spring. To have an ultra clear cut definition may exclude us from receiving valuable information and unique takes on the subject. Regardless, we must face the fact that the term Superfood is harshly abused in modern health vocabulary, and on this website you will not find old paradigms being rehashed and regurgitated the likes of which you may encounter from the USDA, or anyone abiding by the iron (or should we say mercury/aluminum) rule of the pyramid.

Superfood City's mission is to illuminate (without the use of pyramids) the fantastic wonders of all of this planet's Superfoods and Superfoodists, and to bring forth new, fascinating, and important information regarding your personal health and the health of your planet.
