First Mile Care DPP Coach Jenny Fowler shares her opinion on the #1 healthiest food.
“While I’d love to say that there is one magic food that we all could eat every day to keep us in optimal health, I can’t…”
Yes, kale is chock full of nutrients like vitamin A, vitamin K, and calcium. The açaí berry is loaded with antioxidants. Wild salmon is one of the highest sources of omega-3s. But to say that there is 1 food in the whole world that is healthier than all others? It’s just not possible; you need all of these nutrients. And that’s a good thing, because variety in food is not only healthier for us, but it tastes better, too!
So what to do? Eat a variety of cruciferous vegetables (of which kale is one) to help your liver detox, enjoy a variety of berries for their antioxidants, and have some wild fish or hemp, chia, and flax seeds to get your dose of omega-3s. Enjoy the variety of foods the world has to offer to reap the benefits of a variety of nutrients.
