How many of these 5 Vegetables do YOU like?
Sweet Potato: This delicious vegetable disguised as a root has dozens of anti-cancer nutrients including vitamin A, C and manganese. As a good source of fiber and iron, they also give you energy and help regulate your digestive system
Eggplant: Recent studies have shown that eggplant may reduce your risk of stroke and dementia due to their heart healthy nutrients. This superfood is rich in the antioxidant nasunin (a unique compound that protects your brain cells from free-radical damage)
Bell Peppers: In an assortment of red, orange or yellow, bell peppers are another heart healthy food. Loaded with lycopene and folic acid, researchers have found that eating bell peppers every day could lower your risk of lung, colon, bladder and pancreatic cancers
Spinach: This chlorophyll rich leafy green veggie is an excellent source of iron and most of the vitamins and nutrients you need on a daily basis. Even though scientists say you should not eat spinach every day due to the high source of iron, they believe spinach may prevent everything from heart disease to colon cancer, arthritis, and osteoporosis
Onions: These eye-watering veggies are particularly beneficial for people suffering from (or at risk of developing) osteoporosis. That’s because onions have a peptide called GPCS which researchers believe slows your body’s loss of calcium. Onions may also protect against heart disease and diabetes because they’re loaded with vitamin C and folate
