 SUPER FOODS YOU SHOULD BE EATING

BEETS

Remember all those legendary Russian centenarians ? The traditional Russian  borscht soup, containing beets, may be one reason begin their long and healthy lives. These colorful root vegetables contain powerful antioxidants that help protect against heart disease, birth defects, and certain cancers, especially colon cancer. The pigment that gives beets their rich, purple-red color is also a powerful cancer fighting agent. Think of bees as red spinach, (Like Popeye¡¯s super food). You don¡¯t like cooked beets   Try this:  Grate fresh, uncooked beets over your salad. You can even steam and eat the leafy stems.

 

PUMPKIN SEEDS

The most nutritious part of the pumpkin is the seed. These tasty pods are high in magnesium and fiber. Most of us never consume enough magnesium, and studies show our risk of death drops by 40% with a good intake of this mineral. Substitute pumpkin seeds for sunflower seeds or peanuts at your next baseball game.  Eat the shells and all. You¡¯ll find them near the nuts in the snack section.
