Superfoods are all the rage now and rightly so. But have you ever thought about what makes certain foods super? Although there is at present no definitive term it is generally accepted by health professionals that superfoods are those foods that have benefits that go beyond their level of nutrients.
This means that they need to provide extra health benefits such as being anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, or offer our bodies extra disease protection. Im excited because todays Nice Cream recipe that I am sharing with you, is a superfood powerhouse. Ingredients such as turmeric, pineapple and rosehips all possess high amounts of anti-inflammatory agents while pineapple, Camu Camu, and rosehips are extremely high in vitamin C and antioxidants.
Rose-Hip Vital with GOPO even contains 50% more vitamin C than oranges making it an excellent immune system booster too. This nice cream is a fun and delicious way to increase your intake of these exceptional foods, and is so filling that you are going to need someone to share the love with.
