Top Budget Health Foods



The imposing performance graduates with my highlight.

  • Eggs of course for their complete proteins, which equals the same amounts as if you were eating a piece of beef or chicken. on top, eggs are loaded with vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, and B vitamins. So when your eating eggs, try to make them free-range eggs. what that meas is that the chickens that are laying the eggs are allowed to go outside and handle their chicken business and are better fed, therefore making them healthier than cage chickens. But the most important thing, eat the damn yolk! Why? because that's where all the nutrients come from. 
  • organic plane yogurt (make sure not to get the added sugar version) I know what your thinking, nasty right no flavor. Well you can add flavor by adding chopped bananas and berries or a little hint of honey to enhance the flavor. 
  • Nuts and seeds, almonds in particular, because they contain several phytochemicals including beta-sisterol stigmasterol and campesterol which is thought to contribute to a healthy heart. A handful of almonds a day helps reduce the risk of hart disease by lowering LDL or bad blood cholesterol by as much as ten percent. Also a great source of protein an fat, but don't go overboard. 
  • Berries; blue berries and strawberries especially because there cheaper and act as flavor enhancers to your organic plane yogurt and smoothies. Also great source of minerals and vitamins, promote weight-loss and are a great source of anti-oxidants and can level out your blood sugar. 
  • Buckwheat is actually a fruit even though it is commonly thought to be a grain. Buckwheat is a fruit seed that is related to rhubarb and sorrel. Whole buckwheat is a very nutritious food. The protein in buckwheat contains the eight essential amino acids and is also high in lysine. Buckwheat is also rich in many B vitamins as well as phosphorus, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper and manganese.
  • Coconut milk: The milk of a coconut is produced by a process in which the grated fruit is boiled and all of the liquid is pressed from the fruit. The milk contains a saturated fat known as lauric acid which is also found in breast milk. It has been shown to promote brain development and healthy bones. It also lowers bad cholesterol and boosts immunity.  
  • Spinach is one of the most beneficial and healthy vegetables. It is filled with vitamins, proteins, anti-oxidants and essential nutrients that promote overall good health and well-being. In a recent study on the relationship between risk of prostate cancer and vegetable intake-including the vegetables spinach, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, mustard greens, turnip greens, collards, and kale-only spinach showed evidence of significant protection against the occurrence of aggressive prostate cancer. 
  • One of the most commonly used spices, garlic is known for its immense health benefits.Garlic is a wonderful seasoning to add aroma, taste, and added nutrition to your dishes. It is known for its pungent smell and distinct flavor.Garlic may help improve your iron metabolism.
  • Did you know that wild rice isn't actually rice? It is a marsh grass that, when cooked, is used like rice. It is a whole grain that is high in fiber and protein. This whole grain has a high level complete protein, more so than any other whole grain. Its protein contains an amino acid and lysine. Wild rice has less calories per serving than brown rice, fifty calories almost twenty-five percent less. In addition it has only a third of calories from fat that brown rice does and half of the sodium.

  • There are hundreds of varieties of lentils, which range in color from yellow, orange, red, green, and brown to black and can be bought either with or without their skins. Lentils are very rich in protein (about 26%), folic acid, and both soluble and insoluble dietary fiber. Lentils are also very high in Vitamin C and the B vitamins, and contain eight of the essential amino acids. They also contain many trace minerals. Lentils are one of the highest sources of antioxidants found in winter growing legumes. Diabetics may be interested to know that the soluble fiber in lentils traps carbohydrates. This in turn slows digestion and absorption, which helps to prevent wide swings in blood sugar level throughout the day.  Because insoluble fiber is indigestible and passes through the body virtually intact, it provides few calories. And since the digestive tract can handle only so much bulk at a time, fiber-rich foods are more filling than other foods, so people tend to eat less.
