There are ordinary fruits, and then there are super fruits! The word super fruit is a name that is given to a group of fruits that are considered to be especially good for health and well-being. Super fruits are packed with vitamins and minerals, fibre, antioxidants and other nutrients that can help you look better, live longer and even prevent diseases.

Experts estimate that you should be eating five to nine portions of fruit or vegetables a day with most of them being super fruits. A super fruit does not need to be an exotic fruit either. For example, bananas and apples are positively packed with all of the essential vitamins and minerals your brain and body needs and can help you tackle many health issues from digestion problems and stomach disorders to gout and eye disorders.

You can usually pick up a super fruit in many good supermarkets but if you have trouble finding one in particular then you can always usually find what you need from a specialist retailer.
