Superfoods

Each year, certain foods are always about to ‘have their moment’, sneaking their way into people’s recipes. Whether through celebrity endorsements or just for something new to liven up those meals, it’s good to pay attention to new things to look out for at the grocery store.

In 2022, many people have a renewed focus on health after what has been a challenging few years (understatement!). Many people are trying to knuckle down, exercise more often, take time to relax, and take care of their bodies.

Eating a healthy diet should always be a part of an active, rewarding lifestyle.

Let’s run through 5 superfoods predicted to ‘have their moment’ in 2022.

5 Superfoods To Try This Year

  • Mankai
  • Turmeric
  • Tahini
  • Pomegranate seeds
  • Maringa

1. Mankai

Mankai

Mankai is famous as the world’s smallest veggie. However, despite its tiny size, it’s packed full to the brim with goodness. Mankai has all nine essential amino acids, vitamin B, iron, and over 60 nutrients packed into those little cubes. 

It has a neutral taste and texture, so add it to pasta recipes, your veggie smoothie, or pop it into your soup as an easy way to get those nutrients.

2. Turmeric

Turmeric

Turmeric is a fantastic spice that offers so much more than just flavor. It is great for reducing inflammation, lowering the risk of some chronic diseases, and improving your memory.

It’s a super versatile spice that you can add to plenty of dishes – try sprinkling it on your scrambled eggs in the morning, add it to give a kick to your coffee, or throw it into your stir-fried veggies for dinner.

3. Tahini

Tahini

Any lover of pita chips and hummus will have probably come across tahini. Tahini is one of the main ingredients of hummus made from ground sesame seeds. It’s a great source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids.

To the layperson, that means it works wonders for inflammation and has protective benefits against heart diseases, too. It’s also a healthy source of protein and fiber.

4. Pomegranate Seeds

 Pomegranate Seeds

Pomegranate seeds are chock-full of helpful antioxidants to help protect your cells. They are abundant in fiber, which aids digestion, and it contains vitamin C, vitamin K, and folate.

It can be a bit of a dilemma to understand exactly what to do with these useful little seeds. We recommend adding them to your breakfast bowl of cereal, oatmeal, or yogurt alongside other healthy fruits.

5. Moringa

 Moringa

Many experts predict moringa will replace matcha as an even healthier alternative for your morning tea.

The African leaf is one of the most nutrient-dense plants around, making it a superstar ingredient with tons of vitamins and minerals to help our body.

It usually comes in a powder, so sprinkle that into a smoothie bowl or some tea to get a green-colored treat with plenty of nutrients. Expect to see plenty of moringa-infused desserts this year, too.
