how do you know what's actually good for you? Here are the top 15 foods you should be eating according to our experts:
“Eat plenty of fish, which are high in healthy omega 3 fatty acids, and smaller portions of red meat to reduce your risk of diseases like stroke, heart disease and cancer.
“These foods are rich in nutrients including glucosinolates, which are key in detoxification processes. These are best served raw or quick-steamed for five to ten minutes.”
“No matter which color – red, yellow, golden – or which part – root or greens – they contain a wonderful variety of protective carotenoids. Evidence suggests their dietary nitrates can be converted to nitric oxide and improve endurance exercise."
“These are packed with lutein and zeaxanthin: nutrients that can help protect against macular degeneration.”
“My favorite food is peanut butter. It has protein, carbs and sugars. It’s a great recovery food and my kids love it!”
