Superfood is a marketing term used to describe foods with supposed health benefits.

The term is not in common use by dietitians and nutrition scientists, many of whom dispute that particular foods have the health benefits often claimed by advocates of particular food.

A steroid is an organic compound with four rings arranged in a specific configuration.

Examples include the dietary lipid cholesterol, the sex hormones estradiol and testosterone and the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone.

Food drying is a method of food preservation in which food is dried (dehydrated or desiccated).

Drying inhibits the growth of bacteria, yeasts, and mold through the removal of water.

Dehydration has been used widely for this purpose since ancient times; the earliest known practice is 12,000 B.C.

by inhabitants of the modern Middle East and Asia regions.

Water is traditionally removed through evaporation (air drying, sun drying, smoking or wind drying), although today electric food dehydrators or freeze-drying can be used to speed the drying process and ensure more consistent results.

A healthy diet is one that helps to maintain or improve overall health.

A healthy diet provides the body with essential nutrition: fluid, adequate essential amino acids from protein, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and adequate calories.

The requirements for a healthy diet can be met from a variety of plant-based and animal-based foods.

A healthy diet supports energy needs and provides for human nutrition without exposure to toxicity or excessive weight gain from consuming excessive amounts.

Where lack of calories is not an issue, a properly balanced diet (in addition to exercise) is also thought to be important for lowering health risks, such as obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cancer.
