Category: Lifestyle and Fitness

Email: query-b2aq@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Bustle

Deadline: 11:00 AM EST - 24 July

Query:

Acai, cacao, blueberries, avocados...all of these foods have
been called super foods, which apparently means that they are
somehow nutritious in a more concentrated way than other foods.
How does that work? Is this whole "superfoods" thing a marketing
scam? I have questions.

My actual deadline is 11 am CST on Friday, July 24th. Please
submit your answers here as I will not have time to set up
calls, etcetera. THANK YOU.

Here are my questions: 1. What is your name, pronoun, location,
and job title? Do you have a current academic affiliation? 2.
What is a "superfood?" 3. Do you think this a real phenomenon?
Or do you think this is kind of new age woo? 4. What makes a
food a superfood? 5. Are there any superfoods that you
specifically recommend? What are the benefits? 6. Are there any
that you consider dangerous? What and why? 7. My personal
opinion is that eating food that is fresh and whole is probably
healthy enough. I never really feel the need to look for special
food. Am I wrong? 8. Is there anyone in particular who should
eat superfoods? Like people who work out a lot or people who are
immunocomprpmised? 9. Anything else?

PR people, I love y'al so much and please do not put me on your
mailing list. THANK YOU.

Requirements:

MEDICAL DOCTOR REGISTERED DIETICIAN

I could talk to an LPN if they had a specialization in
nutrition, but I cannot use holistic or naturopathic doctors for
