Try Adding These Superfoods To Your Thanksgiving Dinner This Year

ScienceDaily (Nov. 22, 2007) — Tired of spinach, bored with broccoli? Experts say there’s a new generation of superfoods that promise to do double or triple-duty when it comes to preventing illness.


At the top of the list—kiwi. “In a recent study, kiwi was found to be one of the most nutritionally dense fruits out of 27 fruits,” says Stephanie Dean, R.D., dietitian with Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas.
Kiwis are full of antioxidants, vitamin E and lutein. They ward off vision problems, blood clots, and even lower cholesterol—almost as effectively as the second new superfood on the list—barley.
“The USDA found that barley specifically could lower your LDL or ‘bad’ cholesterol by 17.4 percent which is a phenomenal percentage,” adds Dean.

I love kiwi. It's one of my favorites. And it's so cheap too, I think last time I bought them it was 2 for 89cents. I love to eat them with strawberries in the summer.

I always think of my grandmother when I see kiwi. She had never seen one before and I took her to the store one day and they were giving samples. She bought 5 and told every one she saw about this new fruit she found.

I want to like kiwi - I want to eat kiwi, but it's never ripe in the store and it's impossible to pick a "good one". I stopped trying. If you have a secret tip, let me know
