Top Vegetables For Your Health

Beets

 .

 

 Some benefits of eating beets may include lower blood pressure and better athletic performance, among others. Eating beets raw or juicing and roasting them may be more beneficial than boiling them

Sweet Potatos

 

Sweet potatoes are extremely versatile and have a nice, starchy texture, so they're the perfect replacement for basic white potatoes when you're trying to increase flavor, antioxidants (beta carotene is found in orange fruits and veggies), and fiber and get a pop of color on your plate. Beta carotene helps protect your heart and boosts skin health to prevent aging, too, and it helps keep your nails, teeth, and hair strong and radiant. Eating sweet potatoes regularly can improve health in the long term and keep you fuller longer, thanks to satiating fiber.

Red Cabbage

 

The red cabbage is a kind of cabbage, also known as Blaukraut after preparation. Its leaves are coloured dark red/purple. However, the plant changes its colour according to the pH value of the soil due to a pigment belonging to anthocyanins. In acidic soils, the leaves grow more reddish; in neutral soils, they will grow more purple, while an alkaline soil will produce rather greenish-yellow coloured cabbages. This explains the fact that the same plant is known by different colours in various regions. It can be found in all of Europe, throughout the Americas, in China, and especially in Africa.

... All vegetables are healthy in different ways, ideally try to vary them enough to get the benefits of all the vitamins and minerals.
