Summer salads are long gone and it’s time to tuck into the delicious produce that autumn has to offer. Struggling to cook up a healthy treat? Here are some autumn super foods that will boost your health as well as your taste buds:
Pumpkins
Pumpkins are not just for the fun of Halloween, they’re amazingly good for your health, too!
According to our London chiropractor, mashing a pumpkin in place of potatoes is a great way to increase your nutrient intake. Pumpkin seeds are also rich in dietary fibre and mono-unsaturated fatty acids, which are really good for heart health.
Cranberries
These tasty berries are high in vitamins C and E as well as bone-building manganese. Cranberries also contain a large amount of phytonutrients. These are natural plant chemicals that help protect the body from harmful free radicals and offer anti-inflammatory and cancer-preventing properties.
Clementines
These delicious fruits are tasty, easy-to-peel and a good all-round, fuss-free snack. They’re a good source of immunity-boosting vitamin C, calcium and potassium.
Autumn offers a range of wholesome foods that can go a long way to boosting your health. Take advantage of the season!
