Super Foods

There is no such thing as a miracle food, but there are certain foods that provide health benefits, energy and disease-fighting compounds and can easily be added to your diet, so called Superfoods.

Gradually add these power foods to your diet, to help you achieve your goal of eating healthier.

Oatmeal

Over 40 studies show that the soluble fiber in oatmeal can help
lower cholesterol. To help lower your cholesterol, add oatmeal to
your muffins, meatloaf, cookies and fruit crisp toppings or eat it
plain.

Salmon

Oily fish (such as salmon, trout or mackerel) is a great source of
omega 3. In fact, fish is one of the few foods that contain heart
friendly omega 3 fats which is why it is so important to eat more
fish! We are recommended to eat two portions of fish a week
including one portion of oily fish. Bake, poach or grill fish and add
to salads, taco's pasta or rice dishes

Low-fat Dairy

Don’t ditch dairy when trying to lose weight. In recent studies,
women with the highest calcium intake from dairy foods lost the
most weight and body fat compared to other groups. 3-A-Day of
dairy may help you lose weight and build your bones.
