(Just in case you want to know why you should eat more check out Heather’s post here beauty.allwomenstalk.com and what Jessica has to say here food.allwomenstalk.com). Despair ye not however! There are tons and tons of green foods that will provide you awesome amounts of good things. From the avocado to green tea, there’s bound to be green foods you love. Here’s just a few – fava beans, French beans, edamame beans, spinach, limes, squash, cabbage, peas, Brussel sprouts, pears, pak choy, cucumber, asparagus, grapes, kiwi fruit, prickly pear, kale, green chili, okra – and the list goes on. As green fruit and veggies are so diverse in range, so are their nutritional benefits. Kiwis will give you a fiber hit, while asparagus while provide a nice shot of inulin, a prebiotic that promotes digestive health. The best way to include green foods in your meal is decide which nutrients you need to balance the meal, or your diet for the day.
