Best Local Superfoods

Why stray into the distance when the good is growing in front of the door? These foods with their high nutrient density come from our latitudes!

Lamb’s lettuce

The dark green leaves of the Fitmacher are rich in blood-forming iron.

Tolfioow tip: Serve roughly chopped lamb’s lettuce mixed with whole-grain spaghetti and garlic oil.

Kohl

There is plenty of hypotensive potassium in the mild-tasting pointed cabbage.

Tolfioow tip: finely shaved strips spice up any pasta sauce.

Broccoli

The tart, nutty slimming vegetable strengthens the bones with calcium and has a detoxifying effect with its mustard glycosides.

Tolfioow tip: healthy and crunchy! Fry the broccoli very briefly in sesame oil.

blackberries

The small bittersweet vitamin bombs contain lots of vitamin C and fiber that promotes digestion.

Tolfioow tip: blackberries mold quickly, so always store in the fridge.

oatmeal

The grain contains the cholesterol-lowering fiber beta-glucan.

Tolfioow tip: Extra tender melted flakes can be stirred into fruit juices or milkshakes in no time.

blueberries

We find plenty of the cell-protecting plant pigment anthocyanin in blueberries.

Tolfioow tip: Freeze the berries, puree with yoghurt and enjoy!

Walnut kernels

In addition to valuable omega-3 fatty acids, the seeds also contain plenty of antioxidant vitamin E.

Tolfioow tip: for an even nuttier aroma, chop the kernels and roast in a coated pan.

Pumpkin seed oil

The fragrant green oil is a top supplier of polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E.

Tolfioow tip: A few drops add sophistication to grilled vegetables and creamy soups.

linseed

The seeds of the flax plant are real powerhouses. They contain plenty of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids.

Tolfioow tip: Use ground flaxseed. The ingredients are better absorbed by the body.

plums

The blue fruits supply our body primarily with nerve-strengthening B vitamins and filling pectins.

Tolfioow tip: Fill the plums with cream cheese.

sea ​​buckthorn

The sour berries provide an extra portion of vitamin C for the immune system. Just 3 tablespoons of sea buckthorn juice cover the daily requirement.

Tolfioow tip: A little juice gives salad dressings a fruity aroma.
