Celebrities who eat it regularly are obsessed with it. And for good reason: kale is the ultimate superfood. It’s an antioxidant bomb: it contains flavonoids and vitamins A, C, K, E and the B group, as well as bone-strengthening calcium, immune-supporting zinc and anemia-fighting iron. Eat it in salads, for example with chickpeas and avocado, and you have an elixir of life.
8. Mushrooms
They are low in calories and packed with fiber and nutrients such as B vitamins and minerals, such as phosphorus, potassium and copper. Mushrooms have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and support the immune system and cardiovascular system. Serve them as an extra with meat, in your risotto or make them the star of the dish in a soup or salad.
9. Millet
If you have weak and thin hair, you may be familiar with millet seed capsules (a growth supplement). Millet is not only gluten-free, it also has a low glycemic index and is rich in protein, amino acids, antioxidants and minerals, such as magnesium, calcium, phosphorus and iron, which are essential for healthy hair and skin. Cook it like rice and eat it in salads with raw vegetables and herbs.
10. Rocket
Prized by the ancient Romans, this spicy-tasting vegetable is low in calories, has antioxidant anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties and is an excellent source of vitamins and minerals. In addition, arugula contains erucin, an active ingredient that helps lower high blood pressure. It is not only delicious in salads, but also on pizzas, soups and pasta dishes.
