Every bite counts! Here are five simple foods with big health benefits to add to your diet:
Oats. They’re packed with the type of fiber that studies suggest has numerous health benefits, including lowering blood pressure and cholesterol.
Blueberries. They have more antioxidants than many fruits and vegetables. And they don’t have to be fresh; studies show that frozen blueberries deliver the same amount of disease-fighting antioxidants as fresh blueberries.
Garlic. Studies show that garlic offers a variety of health benefits. Put a head of garlic on your shopping list each week and keep your kitchen stocked with a bottle of dried minced garlic. Just sprinkle some into your favorite dinner recipes.
Broccoli. It’s a member of the cruciferous vegetable family (along with kale, cauliflower and cabbage) and is packed full of essential nutrients. Plus, it’s super low in calories. Just one cup of broccoli provides 100 percent of your daily vitamin C and vitamin K. Fresh or frozen, it packs a big nutritional punch.
Yogurt. It’s packed full of calcium and probiotics, healthy bacteria that help keep your tummy on track. It also helps build strong bones, reduces your risk for high blood pressure, and can even help you feel fuller for longer. We have a wide variety of yogurt.
