3. Kale: The Nutrient Powerhouse
Kale, often referred to as the "queen of greens," is one of the most nutrient-dense foods you can consume. This leafy green is loaded with vitamins A, C, K, and minerals like calcium, potassium, and iron. Not only is kale low in calories, but it also offers anti-inflammatory properties and can help support healthy digestion. Add some kale to your salads, smoothies, or stir-fries and let your body reap the benefits!
4. Quinoa: The Complete Protein
Looking for a vegetarian source of protein that rivals meat? Look no further than quinoa! This ancient grain is considered a complete protein as it contains all the essential amino acids your body needs. Quinoa is also rich in fiber, iron, magnesium, and various vitamins. Whether you enjoy it as a base for salads or a side dish, quinoa is a versatile and nutritious food that should be a staple in your diet.
5. Chia Seeds: Tiny Seeds, Big Benefits
Although chia seeds may be small in size, they are mighty when it comes to nutritional value. Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, protein, and calcium, chia seeds offer a wide range of health benefits. They can help stabilize blood sugar levels, improve digestion, promote weight loss, and enhance energy levels. Sprinkle these super seeds on your yogurt, smoothies, or oatmeal for a nutritious boost!
6. Turmeric: The Golden Spice
Turmeric, the vibrant yellow spice commonly found in curry dishes, has been used for centuries due to its medicinal properties. Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. It can help alleviate pain, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and improve brain function. Incorporate this golden spice into your meals or enjoy a soothing cup of turmeric tea.
7. Salmon: The Omega-3 Powerhouse
If you're looking to boost your brain power and improve heart health, salmon is the way to go. This fatty fish is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which have been linked to numerous health benefits. Omega-3s can reduce inflammation, support brain function, promote healthy skin, and even help prevent depression. Enjoy grilled or baked salmon twice a week and nourish your body with this nutritional superstar.
8. Greek Yogurt: The Protein-Packed Snack
Greek yogurt is not only delicious and creamy, but it is also loaded with protein. This tangy treat is strained to remove excess liquid, resulting in a thicker consistency and higher protein content. Greek yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, probiotics, and essential vitamins. It can boost your metabolism, support gut health, and keep you feeling full for longer. Enjoy it as a snack or use it as a healthier alternative in various recipes.
9. Dark Chocolate: Indulgence with Benefits
Who said indulgence couldn't be healthy? Dark chocolate, with at least 70% cocoa content, is not only a delightful treat but also a nutritious one. Packed with antioxidants, dark chocolate can help improve heart health, lower blood pressure, and boost mood. Remember, moderation is key, so savor a piece or two to satisfy your sweet cravings while reaping the health benefits!
10. Green Tea: The Energizing Elixir
Swap your morning cup of coffee for a mug of green tea and feel the difference! Green tea is renowned for its high content of antioxidants and catechins. These compounds can boost metabolism, aid in weight loss, and improve brain function. Moreover, green tea contains the amino acid L-theanine, which provides a natural energy boost without the jitters. Sip on green tea throughout the day to stay hydrated and energized!
Your journey to optimal health and vitality begins with the choices you make in the kitchen. By incorporating these 10 surprising foods into your diet, you can fuel your body with the nutrients it craves and unleash your inner champion. Remember, your body is a temple, so treat it well and enjoy the journey to a healthier, happier you!

A YALSA Most Popular Paperback for Young Adults
FOOD, GIRLS, AND OTHER THINGS I CAN'T HAVE is the story of a boy who doesn't fit--in his pants, in his family, in his school, or in his life. If Andrew Zansky can only be thin enough, smart enough, or popular enough, he thinks everything in his life will be perfect. His father will come back home. The pretty girl in school will fall in love with him. His Mom will be happy again.
While he's working to achieve this fantasy future, Andrew eats. A lot. He buries his problems in his Mom's mini-snacks, analyzing his world while stuffing down his feelings. "When I chew loud enough," he says, "I can't hear myself think. It's like a little vacation." FOOD, GIRLS, AND OTHER THINGS I CAN'T HAVE follows Andrew's journey to self-awareness and self-acceptance (by, unexpectedly, joining the high school football team). By the end of the story, Andrew stops living in his head and starts participating in life. Perhaps most importantly, he comes to understand that feeling different doesn't make him weird or special; it makes him just like everyone else.
