10. Berries
Berries have many nutritional benefits thanks to their high levels of water and anti-oxidants. Both help the body to eliminate waste products and protect us against all types of cancer. Berries are also particularly high in fiber content, which prevents diabetes and helps us to stay satisfied between meals. Make sure you purchase organic berries whenever possible to avoid high doses of pesticides and other toxic chemicals. I usually buy large boxes of ripe berries during season and freeze them to enjoy later.
11. Red Bell Pepper
Red Bell Peppers are 92 percent water and an excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin B6, beta-carotene and folic acid. They help the body to burn extra calories, elevate oxygen intake and boost our immune system. They are also very low in calories, which makes them the perfect nutrient-dense snacks to replace crispy chips or crackers. Red Bell Peppers make a great addition to a platter of crunchy crudités, a big plate of raw sushi, a spicy pasta sauce or a refreshing gazpacho.
12. Grapefruit
Grapefruit has been proven to boost the body’s fat-burning process and control appetite. The refreshing, tangy citrus fruit helps to keep the body hydrated and the metabolism active. Consuming grapefruit on a regular basis can also speed up the detoxification process and boost energy levels since it helps the liver to turn fatty acids into energy. Grapefruit is best eaten on an empty stomach and makes a great addition to your usual breakfast!
