These

Superfoods
Can
Prevent

Cancer, Heart
Disease,

Obesity, and
So Much More
Oranges Next time you pass by the fruit section
of the grocery store, make sure to pick up some
oranges. This fruit not only provides the body
with tasty hydration, but is also high in various
nutrients, fiber, and Vitamin C. The secret behind
the power of oranges is in their high levels of
pectin, a soluble fiber that naturally gets rid of the
cholesterol found in your body. And if you
thought bananas were the only fruit with
potassium, think again! Oranges have an
extraordinary amount of potassium, which gets all
that extra sodium out of your system so that your
blood pressure naturally returns to a healthy
level. Best of all, the potassium in oranges
neutralizes proteins that can scar the
development of heart tissue and lead to heart
failure.

Kale The popularity of kale has grown


substantially in recent years, and now it’s difficult
to find a supermarket that doesn’t carry it! This is
great news if you’re looking to stop the onset of
heart disease. Kale has a variety of nutrients that
help regulate your cardiovascular system which
regulate the function of vital organs, including
your heart. You might not believe that kale has
way more omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and
fiber than most other vegetables out there! As
an added bonus, it has low calorie and fat
content, so if you haven’t been adding kale to
your meals already, it’s time to get started!

Garlic Garlic is well-known for its ability to repel


vampires, but did you know that it has
superfood properties that make it a worthy
addition to your diet? Garlic has been proven to
help lower blood pressure and help reduce the
plaque in your arteries that can lead to heart
problems. But wait, there’s more! Garlic can also
help decrease the number of enzymes that
constrict your blood vessels. If you’re not a fan of
the taste or lingering smell of garlic, a great
alternative is to take a garlic supplement in the
form of a pill. Studies show that this method of
ingestion reduces the build-up of plaque in the
arteries by as much as 50%!

Red Wine For those of us who already


enjoy that glass of wine at the end of a
long day, rest easy knowing this habit is
extremely good for your body! In fact, in
moderate amounts (key word, moderate!!!),
experts have found that red wine can help
increase HDL levels and stop the build-up of
cholesterol. Red wine is also rich in
antioxidants that break up impending blood
clots and keep frightening conditions like
coronary heart disease at bay. So next time
you break out that corkscrew, just remind
yourself that it’s all for your heart.

Chocolate We have some good news for all you


chocolate lovers out there! We all know this sweet
treat helps with our mood, but did you know that it
also helps reduce the chance of heart disease and
strokes? A new study from Harvard found that
people who regularly ingested raw cocoa showed
absolutely no signs of hypertension and in fact,
their blood pressure reduced! This is because dark
chocolate has an antioxidant called flavanols, and
eating a small and regular amount can lower blood
pressure and lower the chances of heart-related
diseases. Reminding you that this does not mean
sugary candy bars, but high content cocoa, and
dark chocolate often still contains high levels of
white sugar, which can do the opposite of what we
are trying to achieve here!

Sardines Sardines might not be on the


top of most people’s favorite foods list,
but the nutrients and heart-healthy fats
found in this cold fish make it a
superfood, unlike others. Sardines are a
fish especially loaded with omega-3 fatty
acids, a fat that reduces dangerous
triglyceride levels, increases the healthy
HDL cholesterol, and overall helps to
stop heart disease in its tracks. Look out
for the next sardine run closest to you!
Lentils (Mongo) Lentils are a great superfood
already part of many diets around the world.
Besides being a great way to add some flavor
to salads or other dishes, lentils have tons of
great health benefits. This powerful legume
reduces the risk of strokes and heart disease.
Lentils have high amounts of proteins,
potassium, and magnesium, and this
combination has been shown to help regulate
blood pressure, decrease high levels of
cholesterol, and eliminate dangerous plaque
build-up in blood vessels.
Almonds Who knew that such a tasty nut
could boost your IQ? Almonds are a
popular snack choice, but did you know
their unique mix of nutrients has been
shown to increase intelligence and
memory? As if that wasn’t reason enough
to grab a handful, they also lower the risk
of heart disease and diabetes. The reason
is that almonds have a high level of plant
sterols, which help prevent your body
from absorbing bad LDL cholesterol that
can lead to cardiovascular disease.
Pomegranates Pomegranates are a great
addition to salads, smoothies, and shakes. If
their great taste wasn’t convincing enough to
add it to your pantry, this fantastic superfood
harbors an excellent mix of antioxidants that
help protect the accumulation of plaque on
the walls of your arteries. If warding off heart
disease isn’t reason enough, scientists have
found that the fruit helps prevent the onset of
Alzheimer’s disease, strokes, cancer, diabetes,
and also helps keep your skin, joints, and liver
healthy and in working order! Oh, and
pomegranates also help your teeth look great.
Blueberries Have you ever found yourself
craving… blueberries? This superfood is
part of the family of berries that can help
regulate blood pressure, lower
cholesterol, and reduce plaque build-up
in arteries. Each berry is jam-packed with
essential nutrients and antioxidants that
are so powerful that they can allegedly
help stop some types of cancer right in
their tracks! Last but not least, they help
lower the risk of heart disease. Now
that’s what we call a superfruit!
Beets These purple vegetables are unique in
their color and in the high levels of vitamins,
minerals, and antioxidants. Unlike other
vegetables, they contain B-vitamin folate
and betaine. Studies have shown that this
colorful addition to salads helps to bring
down homocysteine levels in the blood,
which reduces the chances of developing
heart disease. Moreover, beets have been
found to mysteriously strengthen various
organs and eliminate the chances of
contracting certain forms of cancer.
Salmon Salmon has always been a
restaurant staple for its fantastic taste,
but did you know this type of fish has
enough omega-3 fatty acids to stop the
onset of heart disease? The combination
of nutrients and good fats found in the
fish can help reduce triglyceride levels,
open up closed off blood vessels, and
stop the occurrence of blood clots.
Salmon sushi is a fantastically delicious
and healthy meal, if not a pricey one.
Turmeric Turmeric is the best ingredient to
enhance the flavor of any kind of curry. This
spice has been a part of medical treatments in
the East for centuries, but only recently has it
entered the diets of those living in other parts
of the world. Recently, scientists have isolated
the active compound that makes turmeric a
superfood. Curcumin, specifically found in
turmeric, has been found to block cardiac
hypertrophy, also known as heart
enlargement. Turmeric also helps to fight
against obesity, high blood pressure and
lowers the chances of developing heart
disease.

Chia Seeds Chia seeds taste great in a


pudding or as an addition to any kind of
smoothie. These tiny seeds are among the
world’s best superfoods. They’re loaded
with protein, antioxidants, fiber, and
omega-3 fatty acids. Better yet, they’re
super low in calories! Their combination of
nutrients and antioxidants work hard to
help lower your cholesterol, lower the risk
of a plethora of diseases, and keep your
heart healthy and strong — no pills
necessary!

Apples We’ve all heard the saying, “An


apple a day keeps the doctor away.” That
old adage isn’t far from the truth! Apples
are a commonly overlooked superfood
that has incredible amounts of vitamins,
minerals, and antioxidants. That apple a
day helps to lower blood pressure and
reduces the chances of developing heart
disease. The best news is that, since there
are so many varieties of apples, you’re
bound to find one that you like! Or, if you
get bored, you can always switch it up for
a new tasty flavor.

Avocados Avocados are a tasty addition to


your meal or snack, any time of day!
They are probably the one kind of
superfood we could never live without.
In addition to being amazingly delicious
and versatile, avocados have tons of
antioxidants, potassium, and
monounsaturated fats. This combination
promotes the health of your heart and
also reduces the chances of developing
heart disease. Why not whip up some
guacamole with some lemon juice, chili
flakes, and salt.

Eggplant These fantastic purple vegetables


are great grilled or baked, as well as in a 
cold vegetable dish. They have high
amounts of vitamins, antioxidants,
minerals, and flavonoids! These purple
vegetables are your cardiovascular
system’s best friend because they can help
increase circulation, lower cholesterol
levels, prevent blood clots, and also
reduce the risk of heart disease. Your brain
might also enjoy your next eggplant dish,
too! They help prevent cell membrane
damage and ward off cancers in brain
tissue.

Broccoli Broccoli might be one of the most


dreaded dinner vegetables for children
and teens, but these little green trees are
an excellent source of nutrition for your
heart. So as an adult, we hope you’ve
overcome your dislike for this green giant
because it’s an excellent addition to stir-
fries, pasta, and sometimes even salads!
Broccoli is known to assist in lowering
cholesterol and help keep your blood
vessels healthy and strong. This superfood
is rich in sulforaphane, which helps with
problems related to blood sugar issues.

Carrots Carrots are a great crunchy snack by


themselves or paired with ranch, hummus, or
other delicious dips. They are also a food that
keeps your heart in tip-top shape, and in fact,
can help you see better at night! This orange
superfood has high levels of carotenoids and
this antioxidant fights against the free radicals
that can lead to heart disease. Carrots also have
an abundance of Vitamin A, Vitamin K, and
Vitamin C, and a ton of other nutrients as well.
This combination of vitamins and nutrients have
been studied and seen to help fight against the
onset of cancer, promote healthy bone growth, and
help maintain a healthy nervous system.

Chicken Chicken is the first superfood listed


that isn’t a fruit or vegetable, and that’s for a
very good reason! This amazingly lean meat
has less saturated fat and cholesterol than
any other red meat. Because of its health
benefits compared to red meat, meat-eaters
often choose baked, stir-fried, or grilled
chicken over that cholesterol-dense burger
option for dinner. Most people love chicken
(that are not vegetarians and vegans) and
you are probably eating a lot of the meat
already.
Chickpeas (garbanzo) Chickpeas are much
more than the tasty main ingredient of
everyone’s favorite side dish: hummus.
While small and seemingly innocuous, these
little peas are packed with nutrition for your
heart. Each one of these little legumes is
loaded with potassium, fiber, Vitamin B-6,
and Vitamin C. More than any other legume
out there, chickpeas use this special
combination of nutrients to help reduce
your chances of developing heart disease.
We love hummus, too!
Coffee We have some fantastic news for the
coffee drinkers of the world! A new study has
shown that coffee actually helps your heart (in
addition to being a great start to your day).
Moderate (keyword there again) coffee intake
helps reduce the risk of heart failure, coronary
heart disease, and even stroke! Hold on, I’m
getting my French press. Make sure to always
get organic coffee beans and make sure to get
a strong strain, and the recommendation is no
more than two cups a day, and of course,
without sugar, creamer, and all the added
unhealthy coffee mixers.
Cranberries Cranberries might be tart on
their own, but they’re a staple juice in
households around the world, and also a
staple Thanksgiving dessert for Americans.
These berries are high in antioxidants, and
just like blueberries, they help reduce the
chances of developing heart disease. Regular
cranberry intake also reduces the chances of
contracting a urinary tract infection and
lowers the chances of developing stomach
ulcers and cancer. While this might be an
acquired taste, we suggest that you struggle
through it!
Figs Figs are one of the most underrated
fruits at the grocery store! Raisins, dates,
and figs all contain the essential vitamins
and minerals necessary to maintain a
healthy heart. This versatile fruit can be
eaten raw, cooked, dried, or even in the
form of a jam. Figs are high in fiber and
calcium, and these two work together to
help keep your heart healthy and
astoundingly even assist in reversing the
effects of heart disease.

Flax Seeds Flax seeds are essential to any


diet that doesn’t include fish or nuts. This
is because flax seeds are very high in
Omega-3 fatty acids which help maintain
a healthy heart. Flax seeds can be
sprinkled onto smoothies or salads. One
tablespoon of these seeds has more
estrogen, antioxidants, and other
nutrients than many other seeds! Flax
seeds are an essential component in any
type of muesli and you will benefit from
sprinkling the seeds in.

Red Hot Chili Peppers Excuse the comparison,


but besides making for a fantastic rock
band, this terrifyingly spicy vegetable is, in
fact, great for your heart! The tiny terrors
contain capsaicin, and this neuropeptide
helps lower cholesterol levels and maintain
healthy blood pressure. While they are a
great addition to your diet for heart health,
it might not be a good idea to ingest them
whole, sort of like this guy! Too much chili
can be bad for your insides!

Ginger If you’re a sushi-lover, we have great


news for you! This wonderfully-smelling
spice has been linked to the maintenance
of a healthy heart. You might be surprised
to learn that a small daily intake of ginger
can lower the risk of developing coronary
heart disease and even hypertension. It’s
no wonder that this superfood has been a
vital part of recipes for centuries.
Whenever you feel a cold coming on, make
a hot toddy out of lemon slices, grated
ginger, and honey.

Grapefruit Grapefruit is an exotic fruit in


both appearance and taste. The reason for
this is because the pink fruit is loaded with
nutrition. This delicious fruit has high levels
of potassium, lycopene, choline, and vitamin
C; now that’s not a combination you see
every day! Grapefruit helps keep your heart
healthy and is also included in the highly
recommended DASH diet. It also helps lower
blood pressure. While you may not be able
to handle the often intensely bitter taste of
grapefruit, this is an essential acquired
taste.

Green Tea Green tea recently became


popularized in the West thanks to lattes
and other tasty drinks. This herbal drink
is a superhero when it comes to the
number of antioxidants it contains. Just
one cup of green tea can help stimulate
the reduction of plaque in arteries, lower
bad cholesterol levels, and also improve
heart regularity and overall health. This
Asian staple has become incredibly
popular across the world for obvious
reasons.

Kidney Beans Kidney beans are a great


addition to soups and even salads, and
they’re also great for the health of your
heart! Kidney beans are unique in that
they are very high in fiber and low in fat.
They have high levels of vitamins and
minerals, and they can help lower the
body’s chances of developing cancer,
diabetes, and lowers the chances of
having a heart attack or stroke. The kidney
bean is another incredibly versatile
ingredient in many meals.
Kiwi While many despite this tropical fruit
for its fuzzy outer skin, kiwis are in fact a
fantastic superfood that can supplement
any diet and help protect the cardiovascular
system and reduce the occurrence of blood
clots that can lead to heart attacks and
strokes. This is because kiwis have high
amounts of vitamins E, C, and B, and that’s
not all! They also have magnesium, copper,
and even potassium. Oh, and the green
fuzzy skin? It’s loaded with fiber and totally
edible!
Mackerel (alumahan) If you’re not a fan of
fish, it’s time to expand your horizons,
starting with mackerel. Mackerel is a great
main course for dinner or a tasty addition
to salads and other dishes. This fish has
ridiculously high levels of omega-3 fatty
acids, and also has high levels of the
mineral selenium. This mineral helps the
body fight against the development of
heart disease and cancer. Make a healthy
version of fish and chips by skipping the
batter and switching the potatoes for sweet
potatoes.
Nuts We are totally nuts over all these nuts!
Okay, excuse the bad joke. But whether it’s
peanuts, almonds, pistachios, walnuts, or
cashews, these superfoods are loaded with
unsaturated fatty acids as well as essential
nutrients and minerals. If eaten in
moderation, nuts can better regulate high
cholesterol levels and also help your heart
stay strong. We really cannot stress how
essential a varied collection of nuts is in a
healthy and balanced diet. Remember to not
overdo it though, as they also have a high fat
content.

Oatmeal If you are not a regular breakfast


eater, there’s no better food to start off your
day with than oatmeal. In addition to being
super tasty, oatmeal has a ton of different
nutrients and minerals like potassium,
folate, and omega-3 fatty acids. This
breakfast staple pairs well with nearly every
fruit imaginable, and it’s been found to help
trigger weight loss in those with diabetes or
without. This breakfast treat can also help
lower cholesterol levels and help clear out
those vital arteries to keep your heart
pumping strong.

Beans Beans, beans, the magical fruit…


the more you eat the more you… oh,
never mind. For starters, this children’s
rhyme is a bit inaccurate since beans
belong to the legume family, alongside
soybeans, lentils, green beans, peanuts,
and peas. This tiny, multicolored
superfood has unrivaled levels of fiber
and protein, and they are also low in fat.
They contain important phytochemicals
that help guard against the onset of heart
disease.

Strawberries Strawberries make up the


cornerstone of many breakfast foods,
snacks, and desserts. This delicious red
superfruit is great for satisfying your sweet
tooth and is also high in vitamin C, folate,
and other heart-healthy nutrients and
minerals. Because they have a low-calorie
density, they’re a great addition to any
weight loss diet. Scientists have also found
that strawberries both help widen arteries
and reduce plaque build-up to help your
heart to beat with vigor and strength.

Sweet Potato Sweet potatoes are a popular


alternative to traditional potatoes because of
their sweet, delicious taste. They can be paired
with anything from red meat to chicken, and
they taste great sauteed or baked alongside
some vegetables. In recent years, sweet
potatoes have made their way into pasta dishes
and even pizza toppings! Sweet potatoes are
loaded with minerals and nutrients, namely
potassium. Potassium is important for reducing
blood pressure and keeping fluids in the body
balanced. They can also keep your heart
beating strong even as the years fly by!

Walnuts We’re nuts about walnuts! This


excellent snack or salad topper has huge
amounts of omega-3 fatty acids. In case
you were especially curious, omega-3’s are
also known as alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).
This means that these super delicious nuts
can help regulate cholesterol levels, lower
blood pressure, and also keeps your heart
healthy and happy. There is a reason why
walnuts resemble the human brain, as
they are incredibly beneficial for
brainpower and concentration.

Watermelon Newsflash: Watermelons aren’t


only great for you in the summer! Though,
you might be surprised to know that they
have the added benefit of helping protect
the skin from harmful UV rays. This giant
fruit is also about 96% water, so adding this
fruit to your diet will help keep you hydrated
and feeling full longer. Watermelons also
have high amounts of vitamin A, vitamin C,
and vitamin B6, as well as potassium and
magnesium. Studies have shown that they
can help lower both blood pressure and
cholesterol levels.

Bananas This deliciously yellow superfood


makes for a great addition to any breakfast or
as a base in smoothies or shakes. This yellow
fruit hero contains high levels of fiber, protein,
and potassium. This unique combination means
that every banana you eat allows for your nerve
cells to function better, allowing your muscles to
contract. Despite being the bane of any dieter’s
palate, bananas actually have fiber and starch
that are considered a low-density food, which
means they are great for losing weight! This
super-nutritious superfood also helps to
regulate your heartbeat, helps lower blood
pressure over time, and helps your
cardiovascular system stay in top shape.

Brown Rice Brown rice has been a staple in


countless cultures and regions around the
world. While the jury is out on whether brown
or white rice is more popular around the
world, there’s one winner when it comes to
health. Brown rice has higher nutrient
contents than white rice, and it is also gluten-
free. Brown rice has countless healthy
vitamins, minerals, and other compounds that
help trigger weight loss and protects the body
against heart disease and diabetes. Cabbage is
another staple in many Asian countries’
cuisine.

Coconut Oil Coconuts are a particularly


strange superfood. They contain lauric acid,
which triggers the increase of low-density
lipoproteins, also known as bad cholesterol
in the bloodstream. The fruit mysteriously
also contains high sources of high-density
lipoproteins or good cholesterol. This
combination of good and bad cholesterol in
each serving of coconut oil means that, in
moderate amounts, this fruit can help
improve heart health. If you suffer from a
dry scalp or would like your hair to be
thicker and healthier, then coconut oil can
be your best friend.
Cauliflower Broccoli’s albino sibling is often
overlooked at the grocery store, but this big
vegetable can do wonders for your body’s
cardiovascular health. This superfood is
loaded with fiber and has an unusually low-
calorie density, so it makes for a great side
dish or grilled main course. Cauliflower has
been known to help protect against stomach
disorders, help promote healthy bones,
reduce the chances of oxidative stress, and
also helps prevent respiratory problems.
Dragon Fruit This uniquely purple fruit is
loaded with phytonutrients, iron, protein,
antioxidants, iron, carotene, and
polyunsaturated fatty acids. In case you were
wondering, that’s the kind of fats that promote
the healthy functioning of your heart. This
tropical fruit is known to also improve your
body’s immune system due to its high
concentration of the phytochemical called
captain. If you’re wary of taking heart
medicines, know that the captain in dragon
fruit is often added to medicines to treat heart
problems. The natural route is to eat some
more dragon fruit.
Cinnamon Cinnamon has been a staple in
traditional medical treatments for
thousands of years. Only recently, however,
have scientific studies proven that cinnamon
is among the most beneficial spices on the
planet. Cinnamon is loaded with calcium,
manganese, and fiber, and these nutrients
help regulate glucose levels, lower
cholesterol, and help protect against the
onset of heart disease. While we do not
advise you to indulge in too much pudding,
cinnamon is an incredible accompaniment
to any dessert or hot beverage.

Tuna Tuna is such a favorite among


households that it’s also known as the
“chicken of the sea.” It has high
concentrations of amino acids that help
promote the growth of healthy muscle
tissues. If you can’t afford fresh tuna, don’t
fret! Even canned tuna has tons of omega-
3 fatty acids that work to maintain a
healthy heart. We love buying raw tuna
steaks and lightly searing them in a pan
with some soy sauce.

Asparagus Asparagus is a great dish to have


baked, grilled, or sauteed, and is a versatile
vegetable that can be used in many different
dishes. It is loaded with fiber and tons of
vitamins! Vitamins A, E, C, and K, specifically.
Asparagus has been studied and found to
be a great vegetable to improve proper
digestive functioning and has been found to
increase insulin levels, reduce the risk of
hypertension (high blood pressure), and
also protects against diabetes and heart
disease.

Pears Pears possess a lot of similarities to


their friendly cousin, apples. Pears are a
deliciously sweet and hydrating choice for
dieters looking for a snack high in fiber,
nutrients, minerals, and antioxidants. While
we all know the phrase, “An apple a day
keeps the doctor away,” a pear a day has the
potential to do the same, if not more! Pears
help to reduce high blood pressure and high
cholesterol and also lower the body’s
chances of developing heart disease.

Tomatoes This little red superfood is a great


tangy addition to any salad, but did you know
they also have high amounts of Vitamin A,
Vitamin C, potassium, and lycopene. Scientists
have proven that vegetables like tomatoes are
integral to preventing dangerous
cardiovascular diseases. For any fan of Italian
cuisine, the tomato is an essential feature.
Why not make your own tomato paste or
sauce, instead of buying the incredibly sugary
and preservative-full type that you get in
stores.
Fatty Fish It might seem counter-intuitive to
add fatty fishes to your diet, but science has
shown the opposite to be true. In fact, the
types of fat in fishes are extremely healthy,
and the fattier the fish, the better! The types
of fishes that have the best sources of those
good fats range from mackerel to salmon,
and even tuna and sardines! The omega-3
fatty acids in these fish help your body work
to lower cholesterol and do great things for
the heart.
Pumpkins Before you roll your eyes at
another pumpkin spice cereal, latte, or
bagel, just know that pumpkins are super
rich in vitamins and antioxidants. This giant
orange squash has high amounts of beta-
carotene, potassium, fiber, Vitamin C, and
phytoestrogens. This means if you’re trying
to deter a winter cold, add some pumpkin to
your diet. Pumpkins help boost your
immune system’s strength in addition to
regulating weight, lowering blood pressure,
and warding off heart disease.
Olive Oil If you eat a Mediterranean diet,
you’re in for good news! It is one of the
world’s healthiest diets, and that is due to
the inclusion of one major ingredient: extra-
virgin olive oil. This additional ingredient
brings a fantastic flavor to any dish, and it
also provides the body with high amounts of
monounsaturated fats. This means that a
moderate drizzle of olive oil in your meals
can help reduce the build-up of LDL
cholesterol, lower the chances of blood
clots, and also better regulate blood glucose
levels.
Black Beans These little black beans can be
such a tasty treat that you might confuse
them for candy! They are jam-packed in
protein, potassium, fiber, phytonutrients,
vitamin B6, and folate. That mix of nutrients
means that this small bean can reduce
cholesterol and protect your body against
heart disease. Try them in burritos, soups,
salads, or even as a side dish. Their high
fiber and low-fat content mean they
can help you burn off those pesky extra
pounds.
Tomato Sauce Every family has their own
secret tomato sauce for everything from
pasta to pizzas to even dipping sauces. The
next time you whip up your version, know
that tomato juice has been studied
extensively, and this little vegetable has the
power to help lower the bad cholesterol in
your blood (lipoprotein). It also has high
amounts of lycopene, which helps the skin
look younger and also helps protect against
heart disease.
Apple Cider Vinegar Apple cider vinegar has a
distinctively foul smell, but many celebrities
swear by its efficacious powers. In fact,
Beyonce has stated that she is a strong
believer in its cleansing abilities. Diluting the
vinegar with water before each meal has
been shown to help promote weight loss.
This brownish vinegar also has measurable
health benefits. Research has shown that it
helps lower both triglyceride and cholesterol
levels, allowing for the natural reduction in
blood pressure and creating a barrier
against heart disease. If it’s good enough for
Queen Bey, it’s good enough for us!
Cabbage Cabbage is one of the most
underrated superfoods! In addition to being
a great low-calorie snack, it is loaded with
vitamins, minerals, and important
antioxidants. Moreover, it contains high
amounts of vitamin C, which has been
known to help boost the immune system
and also guard against heart disease. This
big green hero also helps stop vision loss
and protects against some types of cancers.
Cabbage is another staple in many Asian
countries’ cuisine.
