Super Foods

There are some foods that are better for you than others. I want to share just a few of those foods with you today. Try to incorporate at least one every day for the next week.
1. Beans - they are high in calories yes, but they are also reich in nutrients and high in fiber so you fill up faster.
2. Dark leafy green vegetabels - the greener the better. These are low in carbs. In fact, so low you can eat all the dark leafy green vegetables you want.
3. Citrus fruit is rich in vitamin C, but stick with the fruit when you can instead of juices. The fruit adds natural fibers.
4. Whole sunsweet berries are full of antioxicants, vitamins and fiber.
5. Nuts, again high in fat but it is the "good fats" like omega 3. One tablespoon of almonds is a good way to get this good fat into your system.
