Want to help slow down the aging process, help maintain a healthy heart and increase the bodies defenses against disease? Apparently if you are eating lots of antioxidant rich foods you can do just this :). The current Top 5 are: Berries: Blueberries, blackberries, Raspberries - Great for snacking, throwing in with your breakfast cereal or making into a cooling smoothy Broccoli - one of the most nutrious vegetables you can eat :). Did you know there is more calcium in a portion of broccoli than a glass of milk and more vitamin C than an Orange. Try Char-grilled Broccoli with garlic and chilli - a definite BBQ hit Garlic - a master of the vegetable and herb world. One clove of garlic contains vitamins A, B and C, selenium, iodine, potassium, iron, calcium, zinc and magnesium. So start embracing this wonderful food source :) Green Tea - Rich in antioxidants and great for helping fat oxidation. Drink an average of 3 cups of day this can aid in weight loss :) Tomatoes - by far the richest source of a powerful anticancer agent called lycopene. Start eating them - salad, pasta, sliced, diced, juice (maybe with a little vodka :)) Happy Friday!
