The 10 Super Power Foods That Fight Against Multiple Sclerosis
We are all guilty of eating junk foods that just don't help us in improving our health. The fact of the matter is eating natural, low-calorie foods can help keep our heart healthy and our immune system strong to fight off the symptoms of multiple sclerosis. The following list is from the Mayo Clinic and offers options for you to seek out at the grocery store.
1. Apples. An apple a day keeps the doctor away An excellent source of vitamin C and soluble fiber which aids against the good ol constipation found in most individuals with MS
2. Blueberries. They certainly are small in size but are packed with phytonutrients-plant compounds that can help prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancers. Blueberries also guard against short-term memory.
3. Broccoli. So you didn't like it as a child, but as an adult it's a good idea you eat your broccoli. Hi in calcium, potassium, folate, fiber, and vitamins A and C. It's also protects your body cells from damage.
4. Spinach. This leafy green helps boost your immune system and can help keep hair and skin healthy. Great source of riboflavin, vitamin B-6, calcium, iron, magnesium.
5. Sweet Potatoes. They ar beta than the regular white spud. High in beta carotene which converts to vitamin A to help slow the aging process. Sweet potatoes are a good source of fiber- again guarding against constipation.
6. Vegetable Juice. I'm a total advocate for juicing. Fresh veggie juice is the way to go to get optimal minerals and vitamins. But if you can't go that route select a veggie juice low in salt.
7. Salmon. A great catch for your body, and high in omega-3 fatty acids which protect your nerve fibers. Very healthy source of protein, low in cholesterol and saturated fat. I eat salmon at least 3 times per week and try to purchase wild salmon and not farm raised.
8. Red Beans. We just don't eat enough beans! High in fiber, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, thiamin, and copper. Once more they are easy to prepare and a whole lot more economical that meat.
9. Wheat Germ. This tiny center of grain of wheat contains highly concentrated source of nutrients, including vitamin E, foliate, iron, and zinc. Add it to your yogurt, breads, smoothies, eggs. Wheat Germ boosts your immune system.
10. Almonds. The world's most healthy snack, high in fiber and protein and good for the heart.
