DONT IGNORE VEGETABLES

Eating healthyfully is really about abundance, not deprivation.There are at least a thousand substances in foods that help protect you from heart disease, cancer and premature aging, and skin disease.Many of them cause the bright colours in fruits and vegetables.With good food like this,you never have to ask, “Am I going to live longer, or is it just going to seem longer?”

1.PUMPKINS:They are rich in beta carotene, which may reduce the risk of developing certain cancers and heart disease.They may also deter some aspects of aging.Pumpkins are low in calories,fat and sodium, and high in fibre.The seeds are high in protein and are loaded with magnesium and iron.

2.POMEGRANATES:They are especially high in antioxidants, such as ellagic acid, that reduce inflammation, which may be a factor in both heart disease and many types of cancer.A new study found that pomegranate juice reduced the growth rate of prostate cancer.The juice improves blood flow to your heart and may promote blood flow to sexual organs,potentially improving sexual potency.Maybe that’s why aphrodite, the greek goddess of love, was credited with planting the first pomegranate tree on cyprus!

3.TOMATOES:Tomatoes are rich in lycopene , which may help reduce the risk of heart disease,breast,lung and prostate cancer.Cooking helps activate lycopene, so tomato paste and sauce may be especially beneficial.Tomatoes also have vitamins A,C,E and potassium.

4.GINGER:Ginger contains a compound called gingerol that may lower blood pressure and increase circulation.It may also help relieve migraines and arthritis pain by blocking inflammation-causing prostaglandins.

5.SPINACH:Spinach and other dark green leafy vegetables contain lutein, which helps protect your vision against macular degeneration and cataracts.It is rich in beta carotene,vitamins C,E and folate, as well as calcium and magnesium, important for strong bones.And one cup of cooked spinach has about a third of your daily requirement of magnesium, which helps keep nerve and muscle cells healthy.

I would say only one thing just dont ignore vegetables because it gives you healthy life.
