The typical choices we make in the grocery store have fallen significantly short of providing the nutrients we require in order to live a healthy lifestyle. Processed and chemically laden foods riddle the shelves, and much of the produce section is severely short on nourishment due to growing and harvesting practices.

So what does a person do to ensure they are getting what they need on a daily basis? I’d suggest they consider these eight superfoods that can heal the entire body.
