Leafy Greens

Nutrient powerhouses include leafy greens such as spinach, kale, and Swiss chard, rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as minerals like magnesium and calcium. These nutrients support bone health, regulate blood pressure, and boost immune function. According to a 2020 review of the latest science published in The Journal of Nutrition, a greater intake of vegetables is associated with a lower risk of chronic diseases. Use leafy greens in smoothies, salads, or saute them with garlic for a healthy side dish.
