Why "Superfoods" Are Marketing, Not Science

from My Weird Prompts

The global superfoods market is worth over $200 billion, yet the term has no regulatory definition anywhere. In this episode, we dig into the antioxidant paradox — why megadosing on antioxidant supplements actually increased mortality in large-scale trials — and explore the science of phytochemicals as signaling molecules rather than magic bullets. We also break down the marketing behind spirulina and wheatgrass, and why dietary diversity beats intensity every time. Episode #237669 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/237669
