不知不觉新年一过，就迎来了春风乍暖的二月，立春过后，天气还是变得有些暖和些了。在这万物生长的季节，对于的吃货们来说，如何吃得健康又美味无疑是头等大事。

　　过年在家吃了太多油腻长脂肪了?吃腻了大鱼大肉想不想来换个口味?下面小编就奉上二月7大超级食物排行榜，让你吃在二月健康美味无极限。

　　The new year is now in full-swing, and those hopeful resolutions we made last month are but a fading memory for many of us. They shouldn't be, of course, particularly if those plans for 2012 centered around eating better in an effort to maximize energy and wellness.

　　Fortunately, hot on the heels of January is February, a month full of healthy superfoods -- rich in both nutrients and taste -- that make excellent additions to any healthy eating plan.

　　Here, we compiled a list of seven superfoods you've just got to try this month. Think we forgot any? Let us know.

　　Kiwi

　　猕猴桃

　　Why we love it:

　　The kiwifruit is a good source of fiber, explained Jessica Crandall, a registered dietitian and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. It's also rich in vitamins C and E and potassium. Taste-wise, it's juicy and just the right bit of tangy and can be a great depths-of-winter pick-me-up.

　　How to enjoy:

　　Crandall recommended throwing kiwis into a parfait or slicing 'em up and tossing them into a fruit -- or spinach-based -- salad.

　　Passion fruit

　　百香果

　　Why we love it:

　　In addition to being perfectly suited to the month that includes Valentine's Day -- the holiday of passion -- this somewhat exotic offering has a lot to offer nutritionally. Crandall hailed it as a good source of potassium and folate, and an excellent source of vitamins A and C.

　　How to enjoy:

　　According to Melissa's, a major distributor of specialty produce in the U.S., you can either buy passion fruit that's still smooth on the outside and wait to eat it, or opt for wrinkly skin if you want to eat right away.

　　Fennel

　　茴香

　　Why we love it:

　　As Livestrong points out, fennel's digestive properties are so powerful that many people take it after dinner to help aid digestion and reduce gas. It also has vitamin C, calcium and potassium.

　　How to enjoy:

　　Fennel stalks can be used in wintery salads or cooked into pastas and stews. The seeds can be added to various recipes to provide robust, natural flavoring (fennel has a licorice-like taste).

　　Dark Chocolate

　　黑巧克力

　　Why we love it:

　　(As if we need to give a reason.)

　　If ever there were a month for chocolate, February is it -- and when eaten in moderation, chocolate has loads of benefits, beyond just the obvious appeal it has for your taste buds. As we've previously reported, it is high in antioxidants, may help reduce inflammation and can help boost your mood.

　　How to enjoy it:

　　Just grab a bar and nibble (research has shown that when it comes to health benefits, dark chocolate is best). Or for a special Valentine's Day treat, try melting some down and drizzling it over fresh strawberries. But remember that a little goes a long way -- eating too much chocolate isn't healthy either.

　　Cauliflower

　　菜花

　　Why we love it:

　　According to Crandall, cauliflower is low in calories, fat and sodium, while still being a good source of vitamin C and folate.

　　How to enjoy:

　　If you're feeling a little bit bored with potatoes, Crandall recommended trying cauliflower as an alternative to mashed spuds. She also suggested tossing some into a salad or roasting to help bring out the vegetable's naturally nutty flavor.

　　Tangelo

　　橘柚(橘子与柚子杂交的品种)

　　Why we love them:

　　According to Amy Jamieson-Petonic, a registered dietitian and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Spokesperson, as well as director of coaching at Cleveland Clinic, tangelos are a great source of vitamin C. They've also got hesperitin, "an antioxidant that is being tested for its ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in test tubes," she explained.

　　How to enjoy:

　　The great thing about tangelos is that they're easy to peel and eminentlyportable. Grab a few, throw them in your bag and snack throughout the day.

　　Brussels Sprouts

　　球芽甘蓝

　　Why we love them:

　　Month after (winter) month, the nutritional experts recommend brussels sprouts as one of their top superfood picks. And with good reason ...

　　"They are the second highest in glucosinolates (second only to broccoli) for their ability to protect against cancer," Jamieson-Petonic said.

　　How to enjoy:

　　While roasting brussels sprouts is a classic option, Jamieson-Petonic suggested steaming them with just a little bit of olive oil and sea salt.
