Improving your health begins with what you eat.
That means if you’re serious about improving your
overall health, you need to take a good, hard look
at your current diet and what you may be doing to
sabotage your efforts.
We all know that sugar and processed foods are
two of the worst things we can eat. Sugar spikes
blood pressure levels, leaves us only temporarily
satisfied and encourages over-eating while processed
foods are loaded with harmful chemicals that do nothing
but wreak havoc on our bodies.
So let’s flip things around and today, we’ll focus
on the top 5 healthiest foods on earth.
These foods are all loaded with incredibly important
nutrients and vitamins: the two components of a
healthy, long-term life.
Without nutrients and vitamins working hand-in-hand
to power our systems and protect us against illnesses,
we’re at the mercy of every disease known to man.
So let’s fill up our plates with these power-foods
that will help us sustain a long and happy life:
1: Spinach
Load up your plate with spinach and you’ll immediately
be rewarded with all of the nutritional benefits possible
including Vitamin K, Vitamin A and essential folate.
2: Walnuts
These nuts carry a higher level of antioxidants than
any other so you’ll want to include them as snacks
whenever possible. Plus they are rich in omega 3 oils
and other healthy fats.
3: Black Beans
Believe it or not, these beans are filled with super
healthy nutrients but they’ll also keep you feeling
feel for longer which will help you curb that appetite.
4: Avocado
Few foods beat out avocado when it comes to being
absolutely loaded with healthy monounsaturated fats
as well as loads of folate.
5: Lentils
This superhero legume is high in protein and fiber
and they’re also heart-healthy.
So there you have it: some of the healthiest foods
on the planet. How many can you incorporate into your
diet today?
