Superfoods are an excellent source of daily nutrients, but deciding which ones to include in your diet can be challenging. To help narrow your decisions, we’re sharing the superfoods that registered dietitians predict consumers will add to their diets in 2025.
These insights come from the annual Today’s Dietitian and Pollock Communications “What’s Trending in Nutrition” survey, which polled 874 registered dietitians this year. The findings suggest that in 2025, consumers will lean toward gut-friendly foods, plant-based eating, and cost-conscious food choices.
Although the term “superfood” isn’t a recognized food category, nutritionists use it to describe natural, nutrient-dense foods. Superfoods offer various nutritional benefits, including vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. They are typically linked to improving gut health, supporting heart health, boosting the immune system, reducing inflammation, preventing disease, and lowering cholesterol.They can be a great addition to an overall balanced diet.
