The rewards of the summer garden are
plentiful! The
garden abundance is copious! Every family circle seems
to have at least one passionate gardener with more
tomatoes and green beans and peppers than he or she can use on his/her own. Luckily for us, generosity
overflows in gardeners. Moses Chiropractic urges
West Palm Beach chiropractic patients to appreciatively accept
those tomatoes, peppers, and green beans
and eat them for an amazing anti-oxidant and nutritional
boost to fight inflammation, heart disease, cancer, and more! Moses Chiropractic welcomes
all of these benefits!
ANTI-OXIDANT, ANTI-INFLAMMATORY, ANTI-DISEASE
Moses Chiropractic knows this is an amazing
list of benefits. It is hard to detach
these actions from each other! They are all healthy benefits.
Tomatoes are so full of
nutrients, providing vitamin C,
potassium and lycopene, an anti-oxidant that supports cancer and
heart disease prevention and anti-inflammatory activity. (1,2) To boost
absorption of lycopene, eat tomatoes with some tasty,
healthy fats like olives, avocados or similar oils. (3) Bell and
chili peppers are filled with vitamins C, A, E, K1 as
well as potassium, folic acid and fiber. [All of us all need
a bit more fiber in our diets! Speaking of fiber,
green beans are wonderful sources. Plus,
they have many proteins, carotenoids, and
anti-oxidants with only a small number of calories. Green beans have
nutrients described as being anticarcinogenic, helping
prevent and even stop the spread of some cancers in the
body. (4, 5, 6)] Additionally, peppers help
fight inflammation, too, with their anti-oxidants. Raw and roasted peppers offer
anti-oxidant benefits. Roasting may raise or lower those
benefits depending on the pepper type and growth stage. (7,8,9) At any rate, your West Palm Beach
chiropractor urges you to enjoy some peppers, tomatoes,
and green beans! Your body will repay you!
