Quinoa
Quinoa is a wholesome way to spice up any salad or cooked dish, and actually contains nearly twice the amount of fiber than most other grains. This superfood is bursting with minerals, antioxidants and all nine essential amino acids. It is also great for aiding weight loss, improving blood sugar and cholesterol levels, reducing high blood pressure and diabetes and promoting a healthy heart.
Spinach
While spinach was the source of Popeye’s superpowers, maybe he knew something we didn’t! In fact only half a cup of this green, leafy superfood will give you 5 times your daily dose of vitamin K, which can help promote stronger bones and prevent blood clots. Spinach is also a great salad base, or pasta topper, and is bursting with lutein, folate, potassium, and fiber which means it can help boost heart health and help prevent heart disease.
