Let’s dive deeper ⬇️💁🏻♀️
✨We love kale🥗but let’s give a shoutout to peppery friend arugula too! Arugula packs many of the same good‑for‑you nutrients as kale (vitamins A, C, K, folate, calcium, fiber, and dietary nitrates that help relax blood vessels and support healthy blood flow). Rotating a variety of leafy greens rather than sticking to one offers broader benefits for brain, bone, heart, liver, and gut health.
✨Two of our favorite underrated nutrients include Zn and Choline: Choline matters for brain and cognitive health (especially during pregnancy when it supports fetal brain development! Yes, we know zinc supports immune health but it also protects our hormones and is essentially involved in every single cell and support growth and wound healing. Deficiency can be a marker of malnutrition.
Meet your needs by enjoying choline‑rich foods like eggs, soybeans, and chicken, and zinc sources such as meat, nuts and pumpkin seeds. 🌰🍳🌾
✨We never hit the road empty‑handed! Our go-to travel‑friendly snacks are dried fruit (prunes, dried mango), fresh fruit (apple slices, grapes, clementines)🍏🍇🍌🥭, and trail mix with nuts, seeds and crunchy roasted chickpeas or edamame for a fiber + protein boost. And we always carry a refillable water bottle to sip on to support digestion.💦
✨Veggies that deserve more love include bok choy & cabbage! Bok choy is mild, crunchy, and packed with vitamins A, C, and K plus calcium- perfect for quick stir‑fries or cozy soups. Cabbage delivers vitamin C, K, fiber, and glucosinolates (sulfur‑containing antioxidants) and is endlessly versatile: sauté, roast, braise, or ferment into sauerkraut or kimchi for extra flavor and gut‑friendly probiotics.🥬🍲
