3 Super Foods
The Lemon: This simple, bright smelling citrus fruit is a great way to start off every morning to alkalinize your body and stimulate your digestive tract. Lemons are packed with potassium, vitamin C and antioxidants.
Squeeze half a fresh lemon in a glass of water upon waking. Lemon water helps cleanse toxins out of your body, making your skin glow and helps get rid of fat.
Almonds: Almonds deliver a good dose of protein, vitamin E, and Zinc ,with no sugar of course!
Dark Chocolate: In moderate amounts and most importantly it has to be ‘dark’, with at least 70% real cocoa content. This means your favorite Hershey’s or Snickers bar won’t do the trick. ‘Milk chocolate’ won’t do it. It is the cocoa that has the health benefits, loaded with flavonols and L-Arginine that improve the health . Also, the fat contained in dark chocolate, is from cocoa butter and is a functional dietary fat, not harmful to LDL-cholesterol levels, and may in fact raise HDL levels. Lastly dark chocolate is lower in sugar than milk chocolate.
