Will you transform into a superhero if you eat superfoods? That’s not for us to say, but eating foods with a high concentration<\/a> of nutrients will benefit your overall health. Take these superfood energy balls, for instance. Although their color is due to spirulina, the spirulina isn’t the only nutrient-dense ingredient in this recipe. These energy balls contain almonds, pumpkin seeds, dates, desiccated coconut, and almond butter, all of which offer a combination of healthy fats<\/a>, protein, fiber, minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spirulina is a type of algae that grows in fresh or salt water, but we don’t expect you to scavenge the coral reef for it. It is readily available in tablet or powder form and provides many antioxidant compounds that may help protect from various diseases. One review found that spirulina was able to significantly improve markers of total cholesterol and triglycerides in people with metabolic syndrome. Another review of five studies found that taking between one to eight grams of spirulina per day helped reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure in people with high blood pressure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t worry about these energy balls tasting like a freshly caught fish, though. The sweetness from the dates and nuttiness from the almond and pumpkin seeds. The pumpkin seeds also contribute to the signature greenish-blue color of these energy balls. They provide lots of zinc, fiber, unsaturated fats, and protein. You’ll be fueled up with just one or two of these balls of energy!<\/p>\n
