Many of the things we eat from time to time could help us live longer, better lives if we would eat them more often, some even every day.
I know that my diet could use some tweaking, and so I wanted to find some foods that I should be eating more often.
Photobloga.blogspot.com had recently compiled a list of foods that we should be eating every day and below, I give you the summary of that list, what you are getting from ingesting the food item, and why it is important.
- Tomatoes - Lycopene - cancer fighting properties
- Beans - Fiber and Protein - healthy digestive system
- Chili peppers - Capsaicin - improve circulation
- Yogurt - Live, active bacterial cultures and calcium - absorb nutrients better
- Avocados - Potassium and glutathione - destroys free radicals
- Dark, leafy greens - Calcium - healthy bones and teeth
- Salmon - Omega-3 fatty acids - improve heart health
- Carrots - Beta carotene and Alpha Carotene - protect skin
- Kiwi fruit - Vitamin C - immune system booster
- Dark berries - Antioxidants - slow down the aging process
While some nutritionists will probably disagree with some of the items on the list, I think I can safely say that increasing your dosage of some of these foods could be just the boost your body has been needing.
