I love everything on the list, especially curry. Now if it also listed wine, that would be a bonus!

Not crazy about Brussels sprouts, but I do like cabbage.

The "Top 10 superfoods for women" that includes meat and coffee is a joke, in my opinion. What makes meat a super food for women or anyone for that matter? Meat is relatively low in nutrition compared to many other plant foods. Young women may need the iron but iron for older women is a bad idea. You need to be exposed to something far more extensive like the "Top 100 Zone Foods: The Zone Food Science Ranking System". By Doctor Barry Sears.

Each page has a different food with a complete explanation of what the benefits are to be gained from that food. It's a ranking system that works. The foods, like vegetables and fruit, containing the most valuable nutrition come first. It's a great book and very complete.

Hey, they should have included popcorn while they were at it. Popcorn could replace brussels sprouts. Most women would say, "We don't need no stinking brussels sprouts."
