Healthy Tip of the Week:
The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans continue to emphasize importance of consuming natural sources of dietary fiber for gut health from fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Maintain your gut health by including a variety of produce and whole grains in your diet. Check out the recipe below which uses high protein quinoa as the grain and nourishes your gut with eight different types of plants!
Different colors provide unique nutrients:
Red (Tomatoes, watermelon): Contain lycopene for heart health.
Green (Spinach, kale): High in vitamins K, folate, and fiber.
Orange/Yellow (Carrots, citrus): Rich in beta-carotene and vitamin C for immunity.
Blue/Purple (Berries, grapes): Packed with antioxidants for memory and aging.
White (Mushrooms, onions): Support heart health.
Also, making your own salad dressing offers significant health benefits, primarily through complete control over ingredients, allowing you to avoid unhealthy additives common in many store-bought options and pack in fresh, nutrient-rich components. Get creative!
