Know the Key Superfoods

One of the biggest ways you can support your immunity is to eat a healthy diet. Superfoods, which are so-called as they are believed to be nutritionally dense, contain a variety of nutrients such as vitamins, fibre and antioxidants that can benefit your overall health.

For those who don't eat meat, adding a daily serving of iron-rich legumes will help to tick this nutrient box, as will opting for wholegrain bread and cereals and eating iron-rich vegetables such as spinach alongside a source of vitamin C. Fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C include capsicum, tomato and sweet potato. Zinc, too, is important and can be found in meat, shellfish, nuts and seeds including pumpkin seeds or pepitas. For many, superfoods are completely harmless. However, you should not just rely on superfoods alone and you should look to include a varied diet. If you have any allergies or you are prone to allergic reactions, you should consider what may trigger your allergies.
