Superfoods That Are Considered Paleo

The paleo diet has many advantages including being naturally gluten-free and offering a 
low-carb option for people trying to drop weight. If you are on the paleo diet, you may be 
wondering how to give the eating plan a bigger boost to help jump start your workout or 
your weight loss. One of the ways you can do this is with superfoods. Here are a few of 
the superfoods that are considered paleo friendly.

Fermented Cod Liver Oil

Fermented cod liver oil is a superfood that is usually found in a capsule form. You can 
get the benefits from eating fish, but you can get an added boost from these capsules. 
The cod liver oil contains vitamins A, D, EPA, and DHA. This specific superfood is ideal 
for pregnant women as well. A key point to remember with this superfood is to buy the 
capsules in a dark bottle as light will break down the oil and reduce the effectiveness. 

Bone Broth

When you think of the potential that broth can bring to your diet, you may think that any 
broth will do. Well, that can be true for other plans like strict low-carb. However, if you 
are on a paleo diet you will want to stick to a bone broth to get the full benefits for both 
your paleo diet plan and for the superfood benefits. Bone broth gives you a burst of 
gelatin and collagen. It helps with gut issues that you may have during a new eating 
plan change. It will also help with hair and nail growth. Most people on the paleo diet will 
drink bone broth in replacement of a hot beverage, especially during the winter. 

Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is a staple in many diets lately, but it is the easiest to find and use in paleo. 
This is because traditional oils and cooking options are either hard to find, like duck fat, 
or aren't paleo friendly. Coconut oil is easy to use as not only a cooking spray, but also 
as a fat in baking and in fried options of paleo foods. The oil offers the ability to help 
your body get rid of yeasts than can be harmful to your system as well as fungus and 
some bacteria’s. 

Organ Meats

When you think of superfoods, you usually think of vegetables or fruits of some kind. 
You likely don't venture into the world of meats and fish. One meat that is full of 
superfoods is organ meat. This can be any organ meat. Of course, the different animal 
organs will offer different benefits but there are some benefits that are shared 
regardless of the animal. Folic acid, A, B, and iron are among some of the vitamins that 
fill organ meats. Some examples of these meats that are paleo friendly are liver, 
kidneys, and sweetbreads.

The reason these paleo friendly superfoods should be considered above others is 
because of their budget friendly nature and the ability to find them anywhere. They are 
easy to incorporate into your weekly meal plans and easy to prep.
