Improve your overall health and wellbeing by including these foods in your diet.
Dates
With high levels of potassium, which supports healthy blood pressure, dates (pictured) are also an excellent source of fibre. A high-fibre diet has been shown to reduce coronary heart disease.
Beetroot
Betacyanin, responsible for the purple colour of beetroot, is a great cancer-fighting agent. Beets can lower cholesterol and triglycerides and reduce inflammation linked to Alzheimer’s, diabetes and osteoporosis.
Chickpeas
A high-fibre food containing folate and magnesium, chickpeas prevent blood sugar levels from rising too rapidly and are ideal for women with diabetes or hypoglycemia.
