Morphology

superfood = food (semi-transparent) = super + food + super

The prefix 'super-' is clear in meaning as 'above' or 'beyond', but the specific health-related connotation is not a direct derivation.

Etymology

Superfood combines super- and food because super- means 'above' or 'very good', the same 'super' you see in superhero. So a superfood is a food people call especially strong or 'extra healthy', and the name is often used in marketing to show a food is better for your health.
