Blackberries

“Superfoods” like blackberries are rich in phenolic acids – potent antioxidant compounds that have anti-carcinogenic effects. Eat fresh or frozen with your favorite smoothie, they’re delicious and an excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin K, manganese, and fiber.

Omega-3

These healthy fats improve cognitive function, bolster heart health, increase metabolism, and support joint function while reducing depression. Go with a plant-based omega-3 vitamin.

Hawthorn Berry

These nutrient-dense berries have been used to treat heart disease as well as for digestive and kidney problems, with current uses including for anxiety and hypertension. You can order these online raw, and take them as an herbal infusion or as a capsule.

Lentils

Rich in both soluble and insoluble fiber, lentils are an excellent source of protein and feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut. They’re also packed with B vitamins, magnesium, iron, zinc, and potassium.

Green Tea

Green tea is loaded with antioxidants and healthy bioactive compounds that can help boost your metabolism while helping to reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers.

Getting your nutrients directly from a food source is always better than a laboratory-created supplement. So adding these foods to your menu will certainly give you many yummy benefits.
