Greens, wheat grass, barley, and some product simply named Superfoods. Do any products similar to these live up to their hype?

Why Fiddlehead Ferns Are the New Superfood You Have to Try This Spring

...like a mix of asparagus, spinach and broccoli...

They're definitely not "new", but I've never tried 'em! And I'd very much like to, they sound delish!

I've read that they have to be very young to be eaten. The adult fiddleheads are inedible. I don't think they're toxic, just bitter or something.

Matcha, fresh ginger, tumeric- those are pretty super

I started drinking Matcha green tea for breakfast in place of coffee last week and not long after started getting sore breasts, nightsweats, hot flushes, all the symptoms of menopause (I am in surgical menopause already so very familiar with this lol). I felt awful. So I quit drinking it and switched to echinacea and other non caffeine herbal teas and I feel better. Now why on earth would Matcha tea cause all that? I swear my body...
