In many western countries, if you are looking to eat hyper nutritious food on the regular, it’s going to cost you. In Japan, you can buy affordable nutrient-dense superfoods at any convenience store.  I am talking about natto!

This slimy and stinky food is an affordable way to get in a healthy snack. A single container of natto will run you anywhere from 30 to 50 yen. This small dose of natto will give you around 80 calories, 7 grams of protein, and tons of victims and minerals.

All that is cool, but what really makes natto a superfood is the abundance of probiotics. A diverse gut microbiome is critical for digestion, energy levels, mood, and overall health. Natto is probiotic-packed and for those already eating clean, it can take your health to the next level! For those looking to start their health journey now, adding natto to your diet is a fantastic start!
