Natural raw organic foods are on the rise in the U.S. According to Super Market News, recent information released at the Canaccord Genuity Global Growth Conference indicates a growing and prosperous healthy food industry in the United States.

Whole Foods Market, which recently announced plans to triple its number of natural food store locations, boasted a 36 percent gross margin over the last two quarters.

General Mills announced that 68 percent of its retail products have been made healthier this year, touting reduced sodium and more whole grains, and Annie’s, an organic snack food line, released plans for two new products set to launch in early 2013. Natural food producer Wholesome Goodness also recently announced plans to sell products in Rite Aid stores nationwide.

While recent business performance seems to indicate a positive outlook for the healthy food industry, here are the top 10 superfoods recommended for those interested in natural, health or raw food options:
1. Walnuts
2. Blueberries
3. Avocados
4. Broccoli
5. Spinach
6. Whole grains
7. Yogurt
8. Salmon
9. Dark chocolate
10. Flaxseed

Thank you for posting this informative blog.  The part about the superfoods is excellent.  It's important, especially with walnuts, that they're not the loaded with salts or sugars.  Otherwise the good that's there will be wiped out by the excess salt and sugar.

Joan,  for healthy snacks I like to take crisp vegetables and dip in in Hummus. Since Hummus  is Chick Peas the combination is so good for you,

Wayne and Jean, I think almonds are also a super food. I keep a bag in the fridge and grab a handful when I get hungry instead of the candy bag.
