3 Mouth-Watering Powerfoods You Need to Eat Today

Ah the good old diet. Most people know what they should be eating for health, i.e. fruits, vegetables, etc. but few actually apply it and understandably so. We are surrounded by tempting processed foods and fast food restaurants on every corner. So what can you do? Add variety and make the healthy foods interesting and fun. Here are 3 foods you are almost certainly not eating right now that you should be.

1) Cabbage- 1 cup of chopped cabbage has just 22 calories. It also contains sulforaphane, a chemical that will increase your body's production of enzymes that disarm cell-damaging free radicals and reduce your risk of cancer.

2) Guava- Guava has high levels of lycopene which is an antioxidant that fights prostate cancer. It is also high in potassium containing a whooping 63% more than in a banana.

3) Pomegranate Juice- recent studies suggest that pomegranate juice decreases systolic blood pressure by 21%. It is also very high in vitamin C.

There it is... Three simple, flavorful foods that you can add to your diet right now!
