Health food

/hɛlθ fuːd/noun
ELI5 mode

Health food refers to any food or beverage marketed or perceived as beneficial for physical well-being, typically emphasizing natural, nutrient-dense ingredients like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. In today's wellness-driven world, it often intersects with trends in organic farming and dietary supplements, though its health claims aren't always backed by rigorous science. This category plays a key role in preventive health but can sometimes blur the line between fact and marketing hype.
