Health food
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term Health food has been used in the United States since the 1920s to refer to specific foods claimed to be especially beneficial to health. In contrast to a healthy diet, proponents of health foods claim that a specific food has good effects on health. Examples of health foods include alfalfa sprouts, wheat germ and yogurt. Health foods were often fads. Natural foods and organic food are related concepts. Health foods are sold in health food stores. Manuka Honey, made from the pollen of the Manuka plant of New Zealand, is known to have extremely powerful health-giving properties, including anti-bacterial effects and antioxidants. It is recommended for good digestive effects and is helpful for many other problems.
