Boost Your Health with These 20 Superfoods

10. Flaxseed

Flaxseed has a nutty flavor, and its small size and hard texture make it a good addition to smoothies, salads, or yogurt. Many people opt for flaxseed oil and use it as a marinade or salad dressing.

What makes this seed a superfood is its high omega-3 content. Studies show flaxseed may slow atherosclerosis, decrease blood pressure, lower the risk of heart attack and stroke, reduce blood sugar levels in people with diabetes, and treat a variety of cancers.
