Most people are familiar with the types of food that are bad for their health. For example, they understand that too much sugar is a bad thing. But what they don’t know is that there are quite a few foods that can have a positive impact on their health.
Let’s take a closer look at some of your best options:
Dark green vegetables: Broccoli, peppers, and spinach are a good place to start.
Whole grains: Whole wheat flour, rye, and oatmeal are the easiest to add to your diet.
Fish: Salmon, tuna, and trout are among the most flavorful options.
Berries: Raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries make a good addition to any diet.
Organic yogurt: A cup of organic yogurt is the perfect way to start your day.
Even if you only add one of these categories to your regular diet, you’re doing your mind and body a lot of good. As time goes by, look for ways to introduce more foods that are proven to have a positive impact on your health.
