Are you eating the rainbow? 🌈 One of the major health benefits of colorful fruits & veggies are their antioxidants, which help protect cells from damage & reduce the risk of developing cancer.

"This is one of my favorite salads to make during the fall and winter, and it is super easy to make and full of nutrients! It contains arugula, roasted beets, walnuts, poached eggs, feta cheese, lemon juice, olive oil, and pepper. Let’s talk a little bit about one of these rockstar ingredients: walnuts…
Did you know that walnuts have the highest omega-3 fatty acid content of all tree nuts? Omega-3s are a type of polyunsaturated fats that are anti-inflammatory and great for brain and heart health. The type of omega-3 fatty acid that is in walnuts is called alpha-linolenic acid, which is also found in foods such as chia seeds, flax seeds, soy beans, h**p seeds, and more."
