egora Catering-Lexikon

Wellness Food refers to food that promotes health and well-being. The term combines “wellness” – a state of well-being – with “food”. It is characterised by plant-based foundations as well as added vitamins, minerals and micronutrients. Wellness foods are often high in protein yet low in calories, with reduced carbohydrates and fats, little added sugar and a focus on fibre, phytochemicals and low salt content.

Nutrient-rich ingredients

  • Nuts, seeds and chickpeas boost the nutrient content and make for healthy snacks
  • Broccoli provides vitamins and minerals and strengthens the immune system
  • Avocado and soy milk offer unsaturated fatty acids and high-quality protein
  • Probiotic products such as yoghurt and whey support digestion and the immune system
  • Herbs and remedies such as ginseng and apple cider vinegar support the metabolism

Typical dishes include fresh bowls, crisp salads, vegetable lasagne and soups; fruit and herbal teas as well as freshly pressed juices provide an energy boost.
