Healthy Foods to Eat Everyday

Embarking on a journey towards a healthier lifestyle doesn’t have to be daunting or expensive. A typical healthy diet is rich in nutrients, balanced in macros, and crucially, sustainable in the long term. It’s about making informed choices that not only nourish your body but also support overall well-being. The benefits of such a diet are manifold – from bolstering gut health (a topic we’ve delved into on our blog How To Improve Gut Health) to enhancing energy levels and immune function. Despite common misconceptions, integrating wholesome foods into your daily routine can be both simple and enjoyable. Below are ten nutritious staples that are not only easy to incorporate into any meal but also align with our offerings at Britt Superfoods – because we believe in supporting your health without the hard sell.

Our Top Ten Healthy foods to eat everyday

1. Mushrooms: These versatile fungi are low in calories yet high in B vitamins and selenium, an antioxidant that supports the immune system. Whether it’s a hearty mushroom stroganoff or simply adding them to your morning omelette, mushrooms can effortlessly become a part of your daily diet.

2. Leafy Greens (Spinach): Leafy Greens (Spinach): Spinach is a powerhouse of nutrients including iron, folate, and vitamins A and C. It’s perfect raw in salads or cooked as part of numerous dishes – plus it pairs wonderfully with our range of green juices for an extra nutrient kick. Recommended Intake: It is recommended to eat 600g or 1 1/2 pounds of leafy green vegetables. This daily intake can significantly contribute to your overall health and well-being, providing essential nutrients and antioxidants. 

3. Broccoli: This cruciferous vegetable is packed with vitamin K and C and has been linked to improved bone health as well as cancer prevention properties. Steamed broccoli makes for an excellent side dish or can be blended into soups for added nutrition.

4. Blueberries: Often hailed as a superfood, blueberries are rich in antioxidants known as flavonoids which aid brain health and can reduce inflammation throughout the body.

5. Garlic: With its potent medicinal properties including allicin content, garlic boosts immunity and has been shown to combat sickness like the common cold.

6. Cauliflower: Another member of the cruciferous family, cauliflower is incredibly flexible – mash it up as an alternative to potatoes or use it to create gluten-free pizza bases while reaping its anti-inflammatory benefits.

7. Greek Yogurt: Packed with probiotics, Greek yogurt is a great choice for gut health. It’s also high in protein, making it a perfect addition to breakfast or as a satisfying snack.

8. Ginger: Renowned for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, ginger can aid digestion, alleviate nausea, and combat the common cold and flu. Britt’s Superfoods’ frozen Apple, Ginger and Turmeric sachets preserve the ginger, keeping it fresh and nutrient-rich.

9. Celery: A key ingredient in our Britt Superfoods Broccoli-Celery*-Soursop Refresher, celery is low in calories but high in antioxidants and a great source of important vitamins and minerals.
