From kale to açaí berries, there have been a number of superfoods many of us have added to our diets in recent seasons.

Watermelon Seeds
Instead of spitting out those little black seeds, save them for a tasty and beneficial snack later. Watermelon seeds are high in magnesium, iron and the healthy fats which can also find in avocados and almonds. Try flavouring them with natural, fragrant spices like cumin and cayenne pepper, for a flavourful treat which also satisfies your taste buds. If you want to combine the seeds into a meal, they can also be sprinkled over soups and salads as a garnish.

Chaga Mushrooms
This bitter and pungent mushroom is said to be the best medicinal mushroom out there. Full of antioxidants, the chaga mushroom is a immune-boosting superfood. The most popular way to consume the mushroom is by drinking it in the form of tea. Blend it into a fine powder, dissolve with hot water and let it steep for approximately 5 minutes, before sipping your hot drink.

Raw Cocoa Nibs
For many of us with a sweet tooth, chocolate is the most difficult food to give up when trying to eat healthier. However, raw cocoa nibs are a great alternative when you want that chocolately indulgence, without the calories or additional sugar. They are a solid source of iron, fibre and magnesium, which make them the perfect replacement for desserts or even simply as an afternoon snack.
