Superfoods
==========

Small delights, big benefits

 

**Superfoods are often hailed as nutrient powerhouses that can boost health and promote a sense of wellbeing.**

Thanks to their exceptionally high levels of nutrients and wellbeing-boosting properties, superfoods are considered particularly beneficial to health and can help support the immune system. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other essential nutrients. They are at their best when eaten raw, as this preserves their valuable nutrients.

**Local superfoods**
--------------------

Local superfoods are often just as nutrient-rich as their exotic counterparts – and here in Niedersachsen, we have them right on our doorstep. Asparagus and kale, for example, have long been recognised as leaders among superfoods. Locally grown fruits and vegetables from your region often taste better and fresher—and, thanks to shorter transportation distances, contribute to a more responsible use of resources. If you value traceable origins, look for certified organic products.
