Want to eat well without breaking the bank? Grab a bag of lentils, a dozen eggs and plenty of broccoli and you’ll be stocking up on foods packed with goodness without shelling out a fortune.
Online healthy retailer Musclefood.com has researched six superfoods brimming with vital vitamins and minerals that can each be bought for pennies.
They compared them to favourite unhealthy treats to prove just how little you need to spend to eat well.
Among the superfoods that won’t put a dent in your wallet are eggs, lentils, avocados and oranges.
Compare them with unhealthy alternatives like crisps, cereals, fizzy drinks and donuts and it becomes clear that they offer great value for money.
Alongside the pricings, the wealth of nutrients each superfood contains has also been listed, so that consumers can find out just how beneficial each of these foods are.
Darren Beale, of Musclefood.com, said: “Most consumers have heard the argument that junk food is popular because eating healthily is expensive.
“But as these foods prove, that is simply not the case. There are plenty of affordable options available that are as nutritional as they are cheap. There are lots more than we’re listed but out examples will give shoppers a good idea of the healthier choices they can make and for how little.
