I have come up with my own list of super foods that I have loved on my weight loss journey. I basically lived off these foods for the past year. I have come up with these after a lot of research and trial and error.
List of Super foods for your body:
- Beans
- Oats
- Nuts (1 oz. per day)
- Avocados (a little fat is good for you as long as its natural, healthy fat)
- Apples
- Brown Rice
- Eggs
- Greek Yogurt
- ALL Vegetables (as long as cooked minimally ex. steamed)
- ALL FRUIT (Fresh is best)
- Whole Grains
The one thing that surprised me the most is meat was never on any of the super foods lists. Not even chicken, out of all the list I looked at I only saw turkey one time! I think this is a real hint as Americans, most of us need to cut our meat intake and increase a variety of nuts to get our protein.
