5 Budget-friendly Superfoods

Nov 2nd 2019

It’s a common misconception that eating a clean healthy diet is expensive and less than budget-friendly for the majority. Superfoods often get roped into the “expensive” category, alongside organic. And to be fair, some superfoods do come at a higher price point due to sourcing, purity, and exceptional quality. However, there are plenty of superfoods more budget-friendly than you might think. In fact, some superfoods can stretch your dollar quite far when consumed in proper proportions. The thing to remember about superfoods is that they pack quite a nutritious punch, and a little bit goes a long way. They are nutritionally robust with increased bioavailability and the nutrients are readily absorbed and used by your body. You don’t need to consume them in high amounts to reap the benefits.

We understand it can be challenging to select which superfoods to spend your hard-earned dollars on, especially if you’re on a tight budget. But we’re glad you’re doing your research, and we’d like to offer our top five budget-friendly superfoods.

Flaxseed

At only $5.99 a bag, whether you go with milled or whole Flaxseeds your budget, belly, heart, and brain will thank you. A 1-pound bag contains 64 servings, giving you more than two months' worth of your daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids and dietary fiber. Did you know flaxseed is one of the healthiest foods and is a daily-must according to Michael Greger M.D. FACLM, for longevity? Affordable and quite impressive.

Cacao & Mushrooms

One of our newest products and is a straight-up delight.  Cacao & Mushrooms includes a cognition complex that’s for anyone who needs to stay on top of their game with a sharp mind and laser-like focus. It’s crafted to give you the edge you need for optimal cognitive performance, and it'll run you a $1.42 per serving.

Golden Milk Super Blend

Golden Milk Super Blend is one of our favorite go-to superfood blends. It's warming, it's delicious, it's got a unique blend of spices and superfoods, and you can make your own golden milk lattes for a fraction of the price. Our 6 oz pouch has approximately 56 servings. That's $0.26 per servings and will last you a month and a half.

Spirulina & Chlorella Tablets

This 50/50 blend of Spirulina and Chlorella is a full dose of your micro and macronutrients and offers some powerful cleansing and alkalizing properties. A 4oz bag is $22.99 and contains 37 servings but that’s at the max dose of up to 12 tablets; which is great, but if you are on a budget you could easily make that bag last longer over several months by taking between 2 and 4 tablets per day.

Supergreens

Initially, the cost of our Supergreens powder might give you sticker shock, but this whole-foods blend will run you $1.36 per serving of 19 green superfoods. This whole-food blend of 19 organic superfoods includes dark leafy greens, veggies, herbs, algae, and sea vegetables all in one easy-to-use powder.
