Recent Health Food Trends
Would you like to try some healthy foods and drinks? Here are sine that have been popular recently.
Chia Seeds
This food is popular now, but it was also a popular food for the Aztecs hundreds of years ago. Chia seeds are high in protein and heart-healthy omega-3 fat. “Chia pets" were a popular gift in America in the 1980s. The sprouted chia seeds looked like “fur" on a pet.
Greek Yogurt
You can see Greek yogurt in more and more supermarkets around the world these days. Greek yogurt is thick yogurt that has been strained, making it rich in protein, Greek yogurt is now more popular than regular yogurt in America and Canada.
Rooibos Tea
Many people who are trying to be healthy drink green tea, but recently rooibos tea is very trendy. Rooibos tea is a red-colored herbal tea that is made from the leaves of the rooibos bush, native to South Africa. Studies have shown rooibos tea to be good for people with high blood pressure or high cholesterol.
Almond Milk
Many people are lactose intolerant – their bodies are allergic to lactose, the sugar found in cow’s milk. A good substitute for cow’s milk is almond milk. Almond milk has less protein and calcium than milk, but one serving contains 50% of the daily recommendation of vitamin E, which is essential for skin health.
