7 FOODS TO EAT EVERY DAY

Incorporating these seven nourishing foods into your daily diet is an excellent way to boost your health and wellbeing. These nutrient-dense foods contain important vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals that can bolster your immune defences, boost your mood and offer protection from chronic disease.

1. Blueberries

When it comes to antioxidants, purple berries like blueberries are among the richest sources. Their vibrant blue and purple colour signifies the presence of an important group of antioxidants called anthocyanins. A good rule to follow when picking berries is the darker the berry, the more anthocyanins they contain. Anthocyanins are responsible for the many health benefits berries have to offer, including enhancing immune function and reducing premature skin ageing and inflammation. These potent antioxidants help neutralise cell-damaging free radicals and help reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease and other chronic diseases.

Berries are also packed with immune-boosting vitamin C. This important vitamin is one of our most effective immune enhancers. Vitamin C is also vital for healthy wound healing and collagen production to keep your skin toned and youthful looking.

Blueberries are delicious added to porridges, mueslis, chia puddings, smoothies, fruit crumbles, raw desserts, yoghurt and healthy baked goods. Blueberries can also be added to salads and used to make tasty salad dressings and chia jam. Dried blueberries are a great addition to trail mixes or protein balls. Look for organic blueberries if possible as berries have thin skins that can absorb pesticides easily.

2. Green tea

PLANT-BASED PIES

PLANT-BASED PIES

Pies are a piece of gastronomic brilliance: a filling with a case and lid you can eat is food genius. The first pies date back to Egyptian times and there is a recipe for chicken pie that was carved into stone more than 4000 years ago. For millennia, however, the pie casing was mostly used to cook the filling, but for around 500 years or more we have been eating the pie crust too.
