It seems like some new superfood is being touted every day in this "Golden Age" post-Dr. Oz. From Acai berries to goji berries and prickly pears, it seems like there's no shortage of super rare, expensive and exotic weird-ass fruit out there that is going to magically solve all of your health issues (citation needed).  In reality, there are no magic bullets, and while I do my best to drill that into the heads of just about everyone, and I imagine that the vast majority of my blog readers are already well-aware of this fact by now (if not, then please just accept it and stop wasting your money on quick fixes.
