You Are What You Eat: 2007 Super Food Review

Each week, we'll be offering original recipes and unique ways to use those Super Foods that pack nutritional power. After all, you are what you eat -- make it count!

What a year it's been for Super Foods. We've covered almost all of them, from salmon and turkey to watermelon and pineapple. Name a Super Food and you're likely to find a pretty comprehensive run-down of the item right here on That's Fit. Our archive of Super Food posts is quite overwhelming at this point so in the interest of a years-end review, here's a sampling of the foods we've found that can heal ills, prevent disease, and promote optimum health. And if this isn't enough, click here and you'll land at each and every You Are What You Eat post.
