Eat Your Way to Fantastic Health

Certain "superfoods" are easy to find in your local supermarket or natural food store, and definitely deserve a place in your kitchen.

Avocados are high in protein and heart-healthy monounsaturated fat.  They also contain high amounts of vitamin E, folic acid, potassium and fiber.  Lutein, which promotes eye health, is found in impressive amounts.

Pomegranates are full of disease fighting nutrients.  Some studies suggest they offer three times as much antioxidant power than blueberries, green tea or red wine.  They also help to clear plaque build-up in arteries.

Broccoli has nearly twice as much protein as steak, and is one of nature's superfoods.  Sulforaphane is a component found in broccoli that is a proven cancer-fighter.

Apples-- Current studies show that eating apples regularly lowers your risk of stroke and heart attack.  Eat them whole, skin intact, for the highest nutritional value.

Cinnamon has gained favor in recent years, due to its ability to stabilize blood sugar.  Stabilizing your blood sugar offers many benefits, including possibly slowing down aging.  In addition, stable blood sugar levels help to control weight and ward off diabetes and hypoglycemia.

Garlic has been used for centuries as a disease fighter.  It fights infection, reduces cholesterol and lowers blood pressure.
