Healthy Diets

I read a really good article in Woman’s Day Magazine about which fruits and vegetable are the best to eat. Some fruits and vegetable are better than others at preventing disease. According to the article, Italian researchers put a group of adults on a produce rich diet with participants eating a high antioxidant diet for two weeks and then a low antioxidant diet for two weeks. After being on the high antioxidant diet the participants had significantly improved liver function and lower blood levels of key inflammatory markers which help cut the risk of heart disease and diabetes.

Fruit
Berries
Black Grapes
Grapefruit
Oranges
Pineapple

Vegetables

Beets
Broad beans
