Eating healthfully ― it ain’t easy, what with the daily grind of work, work, and eh…work! While ‘superfood’ has been the belly-busting buzz word of the last decade, having to trek across town to the vegan cafe to source a €4-a-pop portion of something you can’t quite pronounce, is just tiresome. Actually, it’s enough to make us reach for the Just-Eat app; which should have been deleted 10 lbs ago!
Fear not! Because many truly fantastic superfoods are totally affordable and readily available, here, there and everywhere ― except Dominos. Here’s Nitelife’s Top 10 Superfoods to keep you looking HOT!
1. Eggs
Ah, the humble egg ― cheap, versatile and chock full of protein goodness. Whip up a quick omelette, or boil em’ for five minutes for a speedy breakfast. There full of selenium, which will keep your skin baby soft and zit free.
2. Sweet Potato
Okay, it took a while to become accustomed to the taste, but now, I eat them almost everyday. With more Vitamin C than an orange, these bad boys will stave off the dreaded manflu, so you’re not coughing under the mistletoe.
3. Salmon
Hello there, omega-3 fatty acids, haven’t seen you in a while! Salmon is, arguably, the most delicious sea creature of all. For a country surrounded by water we don’t eat half enough fish. Omega 3 can stave off Alzheimer’s, heart attacks, and help out the old cholesterol. You don’t wanna die on the dance floor, do you?
4. Garlic
It keeps away vampires…and potential suitors! So don’t go overboard with this antioxidant filled superfood. Did you know, it was used a performance enhancer back in the good old Grecian days of yore. So, go on, throw some garlic into ya’ and hit the treadmill.
5. Spinach
Popeye ate it, and he managed to pull Olive Oil ― the big ride! Pop into a sambo for lunch, steam a bunch for a healthy side dish at dinner time, or even munch on it as a snack. It’ll keep you’re skin, har and bones healthy ― no, not that bone!
So there you have it. If you want to be party ready all winter long, pick up some of these healthy, handy and, not to mention, affordable superfoods; and you’ll be rocking into 2016. You can thank us later!
